If you mix your seed in peat moss and give 45-60 days cold strat in your fridge, that is all it should take. We plant 25lbs a year at my nursery and that's our big secret. When you plant, they should be up in 8-12 days. You can always do strat tests periodically by pulling out some seed, warming it up in moist paper towels in a bag and see how many strat to get an idea of what amount of time works best.

If you are using seed from a cultivar, it's a crap shoot as to wether the seed is viable.
