Can you mark boxes in the start column without them touching an existing cross?
The rulebook states this directly, and forum players agree.

Yes. Column H is the start column: boxes there can be ticked without touching an existing tick, and the first tick of the game must be in column H. Everywhere else a tick must be orthogonally adjacent to an existing tick.
