outdoor - when should i start

[sunbiz1]

ok there in a paper towel now, i went out and bought sum soil and pots, the paper towel is soaked through, is this alrite or should it just be damp? last time i soaked it through and it was fine, also there in the dark or should they be in the light?

one of my seed appears to be cracking

Put that wet paper towel into a ziplock bag, then put a towel over it to keep the light out and keep warm.

Keep me posted, I have over a 90% success rate on germination with this method. That's the easy part.
