It can't hurt to try. You will probably get over 100 seeds per pack and germination is always good. One seed per head; so you could try 10 seeds from each and save the rest to sow next October/November depending on where you live.
I would just shade the seedlings and then let the plant get full sun until it gets too hot.
I planted my first batch (9 plants in a 4x4), then about a month later planted 9 in my neighbors yard which is shaded. A few weeks later I planted 3 more 4x4s and today I finished picking heads from ALL of mine (some even really large) and she doesn't even have heads forming yet. It was continuous picking from 12/24.
Since they were my seedlings, the only thing I can think of that is different is the amount of sun.
