My moranensis started forming middle-sized leaves. I'm planning to wake them up on this weekend.
 
My P. "titan" just produced an underground hibernaucula(thanks to macrophylla parent). Hoe long should it be dormant for?
 
I keep my Mexican pings on a window sill all year round and let the temperature fluctuations and natural photoperiod affect their cycles. Right now, most of mine have fishscale sized leaves.

I have a P. grandiflora that apparently has formed a hibernaculum and a couple of gemmae. I was told that it should be a couple of weeks before I see some action. Maybe your Titan will be similar?
 
Slurm,

P. macrophylla stays dormant for quite some time. 5+ months in habitat if I am remembering correctly.

I have just gotten my P. macrophylla to wake up, it went down in sep/oct. I have had it at 80+ degrees day 65+ night, 17 hour photo period since X-mas, keeping it very wet seemed to make the difference in getting to wake up or just time alone
