Covering trays initially traps moisture and heat allowing the seeds to germinate. You already did that in the bag so it will only be a couple days at most for them to break the soil if you are sowing at the correct depth. I agree with K.C. you increase chances of damping off by covering at this point, I wouldn't do it.
