Yeah lol
I'll proably get one of those long plastic seed starting greenhouse thingies and fill it with LFS and just dump the whole bag on it. I might do it outside so if any of the seeds don't land on the pot, I might get some Droserae growing in my garden! :)
What would happen if tey got approx. four hours of direct sun every day though? Cuz I might also put some where I keep my DC XL and see if they grow so I don't have to acclimate them later....

That should work! I mean if you ARE going to expose the seeds to light in a covered container, I have found that for me CFL's work the best. I have made the mistake of trying to germinate seeds in a styrofoam cup covered with saran wrap outdoors, the seeds were pretty much fried.

Seeds really only need moist media and heat to germinate. After they germinate and start to show some green is when they start to need light.
