Do plants in clay pots have to be offscreen to grow?

Question

I'm starting a clay pot farm in Terraria with a modest two pots. One's got daybloom, the other moonglow. I didn't see any information that suggested they had to be offscreen to bloom, so I put my pots in my main base. It's been 5 or 6 days since I planted them, and they're still just little green shoots.

I suspect they have to be offscreen, but I've spent a couple of the past few days mining and expected that would give them enough time to bloom. What the heck did I do wrong?

Answer

No, they can grow at any time.

The only thing that influences how long this process takes is (pseudo) random chance. Depending on your luck, it could be anywhere from milliseconds to years.
