Sowing Indoors
Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. Sow seeds thinly over the surface, and lightly cover them with a little more compost. Place in warmth 10-15C (50-60F), and keep moist.
Growing on / thinning
Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from bright sun. When large enough to handle, transplant individually into 8cm (3in) pots of potting compost.
Hardening off / planting
Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out during autumn. Allow 30cm (12in) between plants.
Special note
Seed can also be sown outdoors in short, shallow, pre-watered rows. Lightly cover with a little soil, and keep soil moist until seedlings emerge.
Transplant young plants to their flowering positions in autumn. Poppy seed harvested from the plants can be used to sprinkle over home baked bread.
