Might be worth your while not to use the dry milk on part of the 
seeds to compare the effects of using/not using.  I suspect the two 
weeks chill may not require the dessicant.  Two weeks may also be 
rather short for TB's.

An additional option you might consider trying is NOT drying some of 
the seed, but planting immediately upon harvest with no chill or soak 
at all while the seed is still unshrunken, soft.

Good luck on your experiment.
