80F would be exceptional inside my house but it does occur during heat 
waves. I live farther from the coast than Diana, so have more sun and warm 
days in summer, though this area is still considered a cool=summer climate 
by general North American standards. Like Diana's coastal site, I have cool 
nights (50s F) in summer, but here it's because of low humidity and the 
1600-foot elevation where I live. This seems to suit a lot of bulbs. I 
didn't mean to say that I kept these seeds at 80F all summer!
