Last year I planted some seeds that I had saved from the previous year in
a
tray, they duly came up and grew into very good producers which I passed
on
to friends.
I saved seeds last year and have plated in in a heated tray about a week
ago. I don't see any sign of growth yet.
Is there something I am missing or doing wrong, are the seed fertile?
Any pointers would be appreciated
THANX

Where have you saved these seeds from? If they are from the previous batch
of saved seeds, they might be getting a bit old now. On the other hand if
they came from supermarket chillies, who knows what might have been done to
them. Irradiation, whatever.

I also don't think they need a heated propagator. Mine have done all right
in the unheated greenhouse. A week might be a bit impatient, although I
can't say I've checked how long mine took, I've been so busy I just deal
with what wants dealing with and anything not showing yet gives me a
breather.
