I'm new to gardening, but have recently had a go at sowing a few spring
vegetable seeds: carrots, beetroot, lettuce, spring onions, rocket.

I'm watching my carefully prepared patch like a hawk, willing a bit of
germination to take place.

Anybody got any idea which row is likely to emerge first?

No, but what I used to do was sow a few radish seeds along each row -
they were quick to germinate and marked the row, and they were full size
and ready to pull long before they interfered with any of the otehr
crops.
