  You can sprinkle the seeds direct on the soil of wait for the plants to drop them then next year you can move the little plants to where you want.
  you can just keep potting on the seedlings as they grow  that you’ve already sown, they’ll grow very slowly over winter if at all but will shoot up next Spring.

  The plants are still shedding seeds now so that's usually a good sign that direct sowing will work.
  

  If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
