Ten days ago I planted eight Big Bertha bell pepper seeds in peat
pellets. *I have them in small plastic cups which I placed in a zip lock

germination heat mat. *So far, *I only see 2 seeds that are germinating
and just showing through the peat pellets. *Is this length of time
common for bell pepper seeds?

Get rid of the peat pellets and your germ. rate will improve.
