Stramoniums ought to show themselves after 2-3 weeks in the windowsil, no scarring/freezing needed. Is your seed old? It's still cool in holland so outside it may take long. If they won't come up don't give up on them but dump them to come up next year or so.
If you can't get a mere 60% germination in 3 weeks in the windowsil using pottingsoil and keeping it moist, not swamped, you've got bad seed. If you're Dutch you can get a stramonium seed packet for a laughable ? 0.50 plus porto (one stamp) at the KNNV but make sure to overpay them because those field biologists are doing great work and are a charity.

well i dug up some of the seeds and performed an autopsy... there seems to be living material in there but the shell is a bitch to break... funny thing is i keep reading that they are similar to grow to pepper... "if u have succesfully grown pepper this will be easy" well i had peppers sprouting like crasy and the were standing right next to the datura...
i put them in a mini greenhouse and placed that in fron of a window facing west. maybe thatll help...

She needs the warmth of the sun to bring her to life. Temperatures of 80?F or higher are necessary.

I have found that Datura grows best in cactus mix.
