I did hear this from more than one person.  Originally I read it in  some 
gardening magazine.  Large amounts of  anecdotal evidence should  carry some 
weight.  
 
It won't be truly controlled or scientific but I think I'll run some tests  
this fall.  I've several crosses planned that should provide 100+  seed.  This 
would give me 4 pots using the 8.5 mum pots I use.  I  usually count the seed 
as they go into the pots.  
 
Technically, each seed is different, so it can't be totally controlled,  but 
I think this is as close as I can get.   I know of no way to  sprout a seed 
twice!  
 
(I did find out where the 2005 twin is planted.  It's in my  notes.)
