Sounds like good advice above. Just remember that pepper seedlings need LOTS of light, or they will get "leggy". You will have good results with a flourescent plant light. Also the seeds/plants like heat, so allow them to germinate in a warm spot or put a propagation mat under them. Finally, don't put them outside until ALL danger of frost has passed.

All of the above learned through the unfortunate senseless murder of hundreds of pepper plants over the past 20 yrs!
(Last year a late frost in May killed a half dozen each of my Jalepenos, Habanaros, Cherrys, and Cayannes!)
