Has Terry Marshall got it wrong?

Good morning,
In the March issue of Kitchen Garden, Terry Marshall's article on tomato grafting states that "Rootstocks may take 8 to 12 days longer to germinate than the fruiting cultivar".
I bought He-Man seed from Moles and sowed some on 2nd of this month. At the same time I sowed some Moneymaker seed to practice grafting on. On the 3rd April one He-Man was showing through and today, the 5th April, another one had germinated. Could Terry have got it the wrong way round?
Regards, Gerry.
