Please share the parsley germination secret (again)

The second batch is up & doing mighty well! The first batch I thought I over H2O2ed & then placed on too much heat are also coming up - slowly as I got disgusted with them & moved them off the blankie & put them still in their plastic shroud outside - 2 6-packs on one side have sprouts - tough stout little sprouts & the other 4 6-packs nothing yet but I am not so worried now that the second tray has come on so strong.

Note to self - 1 T H2O2 in about a cup of very warm tapwater for about 28 grams of parsley seed. Let sit for a few hours then spoon (ok fine sub slop for spoon) onto 6-pack cells, sprinkle with a t starting medium, moisten & coer in plasti bag & place on heat - no more than 8 or 9 no matter how chilly the downstairs is. Expect germination in <7 days.
