Some peppers also germinate faster in the bag. This bagging method is ideal for difficult varieties that have problems sprouting using the traditional seed-starting mix. 1. Fold a paper towel or coffee filter in quarters and then spray it with water until is damp. 2. Place your pepper seeds in between the fold. 3. Position your towel and chili seeds in the ziplock bag. Seal it up. 4. Place your bag on top of a warm spot such as a heat mat. (An ideal germination temperature is 80 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit.) 5. Spray your towel and seeds each day with water to keep it damp. 6. Check for sprouting seeds. When they germinate, bury them under a light layer of sterile potting soil. If you use a paper towel, cut the portion of the towel that has the germinated seedling because if you pull the seedling, you can tear the root. You shouldn't have to do this with the coffee filter.
