Germination problem, resolved?

Reporting back about the replacement packet of 'Show Angels' from Parks. Instead of waiting till next year, I sowed the new seeds on October 16th. Noticed one sprout yesterday(day 11); looked again today to see as many as four or five new sprouts. Was surprised, since my indoor temps have been cooler than the earlier try in August. Was afraid that the less than recommended temperature range would result in seed rotting/no germination . The addition of clorine/water disinfecting of the sowing pot and boiling/cooling of the initial medium wetting water may have proved useful. Yeah!
