But he does not mention
C. chinense. The ATP plant database says this for germinating Bhut Jolokia seeds:
" Provide
darkness
Needs specific temperature: 70-85º
Days to germinate: 5 - 20 days depending on soil temperature
Depth to plant seed: 1/4""
Ghost Pepper (Capsicum chinense)
I think that " kno3 soak 4h" means to soak seeds in dilute potassium n9trate for 4 hours.
