Two thoughts on germination:

1.  Use The Pepper Gal's suggestion.  Take 1 tsp. saltpetre to 1 quart
water.  Soak peppers seed for 4 hours, then plant.  Use the soak water
to water them in.

2.  Plant according to the Stella Natura Biodynamic planting calendar -
available from ACRES USA - www.acresusa.com.

Peppers are a fruit, planted on a fruit day - about 4 days/ month.

My seeds always come up in less than 7 days - though not to belittle B's
way; I've tried tea and it works, too.
