chinense Habanero germination

I sowed my seeds about 2 weeks ago but haven't had any germinate yet. 0/16. How long should I wait before I give up?

Cheers,

I'd wait maybe 5 more days & if nothing I'd plant some more seeds, & whatever comes up(if planted different kind of seeds 2nd time) thats what you're growing this season :)

Are they on an artificial heat source, and if not, how warm is the area they're in? Peppers germinate faster if they're kept warm.

How fresh is the seed? Old seed can take a little longer to germinate.
 
The temperature is about 14 Celsius at night and anywhere from over 23 during the day. I sourced the seeds last year but didn't have any luck with them last year either. I'll give them another few weeks.
