Just curious, I notice a lack of a thermostat on your setup. What are you using to regulate your temps?

Sad to read this. Hope you have luck next time.
in the mean time you can always buy some plants and still have some heat in the garden.

I got some Italian Long Hot's and a Thai chili in the ground, they're doing well.

Honestly, nothing. I have a heat mat under the seeds but thats it
 
A real shame. I had a bunch of seed fail too this year. I have a temperature controlled setup with a thermostat to keep things warm in my polytunnel but then a freak early spring hot day cooked everything, now I am looking for somewhere more shaded to run my setup. I highly recommend getting a thermostat. I used to use a variable heat mat like that but I felt the fluctuation in temps, particularly at night, slowed the germination process which led to rotting seed. I try too keep mine at a 2 degree celsius variation.
I use basically this but UK plug: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083FJ7GKR

IIRC, you said your seeds are 10 years old or so. It's almost a failure waiting to happen, if you didn't store them properly (I store them in the fridge)... well, even if stored properly, it would be really better to buy fresh ones for a happy start to the season

Hey @marz87 , I echo @Doctor Scoville 's advice. Check out some local nurseries. There's more diversity of hot peppers out there now than ever before, and it's likely that you'll find some interesting chinenses and other very hot types, maybe even a superhot or two, to round out your collection and grow out this year. If you've got empty space in the garden, I say go for it!
