I forgot to mention that in a pinch you can put your flat or tray with the sown peppers on top of your fridge to get some warmth. Just make sure they are planted in small containers so the little bit of heat given off by the fridge makes it to the seeds.

I would not soak anything in Clorox. But pre soaking seeds in tap water for 12 hours or so like okra can help germination, but isn't necessary.
