my partner is also experimenting and trying them for the first time. he got seed from a seed company (salt spring seeds), planted them in mid april in ottawa, canada, and first week of may in southern ontario near toronto. he seeded them directly. the latter ones are 2-3 inches now. he says they're meant for cooler and dryer weather (they originate from the andes after all), but they seem to be fine with all the rain we've gotten here.
