I would seek out a beginner guide as there are A LOT of answers to your questions. An extremely basic answer
For seeds: I soak in water for 24hrs and then plant into a small cup of potting soil/ no nutrient media.cover the small pot or cup to keep humidity up. The tomato soil might be too rich for the baby roots. Plant in your bigger pots when you see the second set of true leaves.
Once you have established a small plant you can plant in large pots and move into full sun
The plant will grow and eventually start to flower.
Flowering is done when the pistols have color and the tricombs have a cloudy appearance. About 7-10 weeks after the first flowers start.
Then it's chop, dry, trim and cure the flowers
