Seed-starting details for this plant

Seed from NARGS '09/'10 exchange. Baggy 70F (17d) -35F (4w) - 70F (25d; no G
Same seed as above, cold-stored through summer. Baggy 70F (3w) - 35F (10w; 68%G, 4-9w) - 70F with light (16%G, 2-5d)

Longer cold period apparently required for germination. I had trouble getting germinated seeds to grow into viable seedlings, with low survival rate.
