Here is a real cheap method, been around a long time..

Make a cup of tea,  any kind..

Let it steep for about 4 min.

Drink or dump it.

Make another cup of tea using same tea bag.

Let this steep for another 4 or 5 min.

Mix this cup with water to make a qt/L.

Cut a piece of paper towel so that it folds in 1/2 and fits on a
plate/saucer.

Open the towel up and place 1/2 on plate,  Moisten with tea. Add seeds, fold
over top 1/2, Make sure towel is damp.
Place another plate/saucer on top of this and place in fridge overnight.

Plant seeds next day/night.

If on a heat mat, most seedlings will emerge in  3 to 5 days.

Chilitipens listed to start in 3 to 5 weeks, will start in 7 to 10 days.

My germination rate is in the high 90% range.

L.B.
