Using a heat mat (no thermostat), the following took more than 14 days:
KARMA Miracle, fresh seed (in the garden, now one of my most vigorous plants!)
KARMA Apricot, ditto
Khurma, seed from 2011
Brandywine Sudduth, from 2012
Eva Purple Ball, from 2012
Green Tiger, from 2014

(and then I had 3-4 varieties from 2017-2020 seed that didn't germinate at all!)

for eggplants, several took longer than 14 days, all fresh seed
Mitoyo
Green Dragon
Xi'an Green
Chornyy Krasen

I have a small 20-watt heat mat and a larger mat, wattage unknown.
