Default When to start seeds in Zone 6

I normally start my tomato seeds in March here in NJ. I've never grown peppers from seeds, just bought plants in the past, but I've gotten a nice little collection of hot peppers this year thanks to some Tomatovillians, and I'd like to know when a good time to start them would be. I know they need a lot of heat, and understand they can take a long time to fruiting, so I was thinking late January or early February, then tomatoes in March. My house is usually at 68-70 so I'd put them on a heatmat.

Is January too early here?
