For those who have purchased the Moruga Scorpion seeds, germination can be tough. These, and many other "fire chiles", do not germinate as easily as your everyday hot pepper or tomato.
Assuming these seeds were not put through any type of seed cleaner, soak the seeds in a diluted PURE Chamomile tea solution (1 cup of tea added to a quart of water) for 30 minutes. You can also use a diluted bleach solution (20 to 1 dilution ratio) for five minutes...but be very careful as if you leave this in the bleach solution for too long or your solution is too strong, its bye bye seeds. This soaking methods are to prevent rotting by ANY flesh that may be left on the seeds. Seed rot is probably the biggest problem with germinating fire chile seeds.
Plant the seeds in a high quality, ultra fine seed germinating mix. I use a cell pack tray that comes with a "domed" top. DO NOT USE JIFFY POTS. If the starter tray you are using is used, spray it down with hydrogen peroxide.
The real key with getting these to germinate is the temperature, not just the ambient temps BUT THE SOIL TEMPS. The soil temps should be around 80 degrees. You can buy special heating mats to help keep the soil temps where they need to be. The more it drops below this, the greater chance of rot and seeds not germinating or poor germinating (when small, fire chiles are not that vigorous, it could take 4-6 weeks to get to a stage where they can be put out into full sun. I recommend germinating them inside in a room where the A/C vent is closed. Get a good grow light on them once they germinate to help strengthen them as they go through their young seedling stage.
