I've got some nice black pearls coming along and some lilac cayenne's sprouting.

Nice!
I'll be starting seeds in the next couple weeks. It's currently -10F°, a bit cold

It's been a few years since I've done it myself, but these plants are super-beautiful and easy to grow. They're perennials in the tropics but annuals in temperate climates. And they love humidity...
This is from a grow with a couple of Thai varieties:

Seeing this thread, including digging up my old pics, has inspired me. I think I'm going to try to get some jalapenos and heaven-facing chilies going from seed this year.
Anyone think of a better tek than this guy puts out, he seems like a real obsessive to me!

@LeafRaker There are a lot of good resources on Youtube. I particularly enjoy videos by "Khang Starr". Very calm, intelligent, inquisitive person with a soothing voice.
Everyone has their way of doing things. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the method in your video. I'm sure it suits him, maybe it suits you. That said, I do just about everything differently:
1. He lives in a tropical climate, so peppers are perennial for him. I live in New York. 2. I grow in the ground. He grows in pots. 3. I grow many different cultivars, so I germinate in wet paper towels in a warm chamber. 4. He germinates a lot of seeds in a big pot with compost and sand, then digs them up. 5. I transfer sprouted seeds to a plastic starter flat with seed starting mix. 6. He grows "chillys", I grow chilis

There's a hierarchy to all this: -clearly at the bottom there's Chili's -then comes to chilis -next, chilies -and then when you make them your life and you have them at every meal, they become chillys
