Im pretty sure I messed up I poured the whole bag onto a moist paper towel but another paper towel on top and moisten it i put it in a ziplock and i dont know why i didnt research germination before doing it lol. anyways i started on July6th and its now the 13th. the whole time i kept them in a pillowcase in the dark ziplocked closed and by the ac vent they didnt mold I'd like to post a picture of my progress and I'd love someone's advise on how they are looking? what should i change in terms on my germinating method. how long should i wait before planting them in soil? all that good stuff thanks so much for everyone's help much appreciated :) one more thing i live in san diego california !! can someone please just let me know if i should transfer them already thank you!

First Time germinating poppies help!!!!
I'm in New England and here's how I germinate these poppies: in February, I throw the seed on top of the snow. In the spring, they come up. That'll give you a hint about the problems with your method.
