I like to get those little 6 oz. plastic cups and use potting soil in them. Plant 2 seeds per cup. If both come up, no thinning, you can just plant both out together.

Cauliflowers should only take 3-5 days to sprout up from the soil in warm temperatures. If you are doing the "plate germination" you should see germination of first root tip in as little as 1 day to 3 days. Sprouting seedleaves in one week at most.
