Just posting this as a possible remedy for seeds that won't break dormancy.....I have had some trouble germinating a few of my chilli varieties (particularly my Thai chilli seeds...its been over 2 months and no sighn of viability) while other varieties have germinated in 1-5 days (pre-sprouted in wet paper towels), so...I soaked some of the Thai seeds for 24 hrs in willow bark water (basically take some small twigs from a weeping willow tree put in a blender with some water and let stand for 24 hrs before using) and under the same germination conditions about 3 days later almost all of the seeds have pre-sprouted!
I am going to try this on some other varieties as well but it seems to work!
