Seed-starting details for this plant

Seed from '01 trade. Sowed to outside pot in late March, lots of seedlings by mid-April
Seed for 'Gracea" from '06 trade. Baggy 70F with light (95%G, 3-6d)

In the earlier attempt, problem was not germination but keeping the small seedlings alive through summer. Perhaps better to get a head start by germinating indoors.
