Direct seed once the soil can be worked. Poppy seeds require cool outdoor temps to germinate.
Sprinkle seeds lightly along rows. Space rows 30 cm (1'). Thin seedlings to 15 cm (6") apart.
If the soil is heavy clay, amend it with compost prior to seeding. Mix seed with sand to facilitate even spreading. Lightly tamp the seed to keep it in place.
