Yes, I have tried the paper towel method for peppers but, of course, didn't
put those in the refrigerator.  Put them in a plastic bag on the kitchen
counter.  Good, fast germination.  But if you don't get these things quick,
the roots "weave" themselves into the paper towel.  It's a devil of a time
getting them out without tearing the roots.  Then there is the problem of
"planting" these things.  I sort of lay them in a soil block and hope for the
best.  All but two of them developed into plants.  How do you "plant" these
things?

Just wondering if anyone has tried the "wet paper towel" method for
germinating seeds?
