No, that isn't true. You can use the vermiculite right out of the bag. Just be sure you do not get the vermiculite that has fertilizer in it. There are quite a few brands that do. You want the plain vermiculite. Also, if you have an interior closet that stays at 71 degrees all the time that will work. As long as it doesn't fluctuate. Does it warm in the summer a bit or is it air conditioned and cools down even further?
