I get different answers on this question from different people. I don't know what to do. Some say the seeds need the cool soil and temps. I planted Poppy seeds last Spring - a lot of them - I bought like 30 packs of seeds, and got very little return on my investment with flower blooms.
It is very warm/HOT here in NJ right now. Summer is no way ending here. I think October is a
better time to sow seeds. Or very early in March while the weather is still cool and the ground
has not warmed up yet.
