Mine I put out with the cap off, so a bit of water washes through, but they get some air and light too and yet are protected. You can do it earlier than January, some people do it in Dec or even earlier. I do put a bit of the "soil" on top, I usually just do it the usual way (big seeds covered more than tiny seeds).
Then in spring, gradually take the top off.
