how to recognize hybrid seedlings of T. wagnerianus/fortunei x T. princeps

Last year my T. princeps flowered for the first time. Nearby I have some female T. wagnerainus and fortunei palms. They are loaded with seeds, probably a mix of wagnerianus and princeps. I also have some male wagnerianus and fortunei nearby. Am I correct that I should recognize the hybrids with princeps at the number of ridges on the first leaf of the seedlings? Hybrids should have 2 or 3 ridges instead of the 4 fortunei/wagnerianus have on their first leaf.
