Am I the only person who has trouble germinating nasturtium?

Ugh! These are supposed to be child's play. Not for me. I always have difficulty. Sowed 10 seeds a couple weeks ago, soaked them and stratified them. A whopping 2 have germinated. It was leftover seed so at first I thought it might be that, but I had trouble getting them to germinate in the past too -- but certainly better germination % than this time around.


Any other tips/tricks besides what I've already done? I don't even know if I can buy fresh seed now locally (due to my state not allowing stores to sell any of that for the time being). I could order, but that might take a few weeks so probably not worth it -- will be ready to plant in about 4 weeks.
