They are looking wonderful cannabis420420! Hope you wont mind if I share couple of my pops in your thread :D

Poppies are quite easy to pull off, especially if the conditions are good. Last year I tried to grow them outside they died of fungus due to the constant raining. They like cooler climates and the outdoor grow is a proof of that, the outdoor variety is more rigid and bright green compared to the one under CFL. They are notorious for being difficult to transplant because of their delicate root system, I just transplant once from a cup that I cut open and support the soil with my hands while moving to a bigger pot. Also I have noticed that they are easy to maintain, I have fertilized the outdoors maybe once and they are holding damn good, if the weather is right they grow on their own.

That over head view of the poppy sure is sexy. I remember a buddy of mine had a huge poppy plant... he would sqeeze the pods and black residue leaked out like a old busted BIC pen.. I can feel the ever so generous light headed feeling just staring down at that photo. This now brings up another good topic in my next thread, Eureka :D

Cannibis, looking great, but I am sorry to tell you a couple plants will not offer up enough opium to do anything.

I grow alot of them. Just getting underway here though. I think I might start a thread from start to finish.
Have a pretty good way of starting and transplanting them. Poppies really don't like there roots disturbed at all.

As for varieties, I get mine from Izmir spice and Oil, really like the Afghans and the Tasmanian Tazzies. Both are high alkoloid varieties.
One thing to keep in mind, poppies like moist as seedlings and then you can really hold back on the water after that.
Also little to no fertilizer.

Anyhow looking great, soon you will see the pod starting to emerge, you are only days away.

How many pods does each plant create? I've heard the wieght difference from material is 1/10. So 10 grams of pod gets 1 gram of finished opium. Am I correct in this? I figured I would just plant a fuck load through out my flower gardens and nobody would know the difference.

mmmmmm one pod per bloom wait till you see a black line around the pod before you bleed the pod Cut the pod less then a mm deep (a dines a mm thick on its side) bleed 2 cuts a day in the afternoon sun so it drys fast yellow stuff bleeds out carefully remove with blade & add to a pipe
Point to ponder share it with friends if you must But dont tell them you grew it Prison is full of people whos friends would never snitch on them or break into their house
Party on party safe
