Default Starting seeds in a warm dark place

I am planning on starting some annual seeds in trays. I can keep them
warmer in a dark area than I can in a well-lit but cooler area. I
would move them to the sunnier area as soon as they sprout, but
thought the warmth might speed up the sprouting process. Polite
comments please.

Just don't keep them too warm, and make sure air can circulated.
Otherwise, the seeds or seedlings will rot.
