Hi! I just found your video. I wish I'd seen it last year, but I broke my leg and was late to the planting party. It's early March and I'm just now getting to seed the poppies and wild flowers. Will this be a problem?

Am i able to seed these in January- February?

Yes, though planting ASAP will give the best results! February would be on the VERY tail end of when I'd consider planting, but now should be just fine. Fall is ideal, but now definitely works! Since you are planting late, if we don't get another storm soon, you might water a bit once a week or so to make sure they germinate as quickly as possible and get growing in time for spring blooms.
