SmokeFree, all I can tell you is how I do mine, and all I do is put the seeds in a damp paper towel over some warmth of some kind or under a lamp that'll give them some heat (if I put a lamp on them for heat, I keep the seeds in the dark). So far, they've all sprouted within 36 hours except for one that never germinated. Most popped out between 24 and 30 hrs.
Soaking is supposed to be good, so you're doing ok so far. I would advise just doing it like I do and keep an eye on the paper towels so they don't dry out. Once the seeds sprout and you get a nice little "tap root", you can plant them into the soil. Once the green pokes out of the dirt, you can give it light as much as you want. At least 18 hrs a day to start, I'd say.
