i just fill up a pot about half an inch with damp soil, put the seeds in, then put another 1/2 or 1/4 of damp soil on top, then wrap it with cling film, (poke a few holes in it too) so it wont dry out, put it on a heat-mat and wait a day or two... its very easy and simple, and you usually dont run the risk of getting them too wet, or too dry...
