Thanks, Karen.

I am not giving up yet. I will leave them where they are. I initially did the soaking test, and about 95%:sank down to the bottom of the cup of water. The seeds I have in on a damp paper towel in a ziplock bag still look good. So we will see.

I will write another update in a week or so.

Best,

Good seed starting medium, moist with bottom heat x 3 weeks+ especially for hot peppers as they generally take longer to germinate. It is possible that these were dried with heat which may have killed the seeds but they also might just be slow.
