plant vision...yeah since the vessels run vertically, you score them right at the vein, starting at the top and cutting downward...on the vein, tho...like since the bulb is kinda voluptuos, i think its the lines that are closest to center (NOT on the humps...maybe in between them??) i dunno if any of that makes sense, i remember the arabs would do it this way from my recollection...i remeber most of it, bu it was a long time ago for mHe...


tenner....jus dont take all the man's poppies....if he has five, take one...if he has ten, take two

i would just lance one on the way to class, and then scrape the latex on the way back after a long day of studying :joint::bigjoint: then see wut his reaction is....if any...

...sheeeeeeet, maybe the Old man smokes the Op ....never kno

you go Old Man!

Well if I`ll feel effects from 2 pods I`m sure the old man can spare 2 pods :D I`ll let you all know if Operation Op yields, they might not be there now I saw them a while back :D

Came across: "The amount of pods used can vary widely by strain and pod size. So just because one batch can be effective with 10 pods, another might only need as few as three for the same effects. So always keep this in mind when deciding to brew tea."

Kinda unmotivating but might give it a go still :)

Now those are some beautiful poppies my friend! Nicely done IMO.. very nice.

I just want to grab one of those tops and chew on it! ;) Talk about being fucked up.. sheeesh.

Where does one acquire the seeds/spores or whatever to grow these? I know nothing about growing poppies..

however, if its any relation to cannabis and growing cannabis, I think I should be alright.

Any help is appreciated.. thanks.


peace.

Get the seeds at your local spice shop. Soak them in water over night, put them under a little bit of earth and then be careful about stem rot until their third set of leaves. Be sure you plant enough, half an acre should be fine, that was my mistake this time. The latex from three bulbs was just enough for an extremely pleasant afternoon. They will yield more than once if you have the guts to expose a lanced pod to the world for a day - I don't. If you cut the stem you will get additional latex, it isn't as strong as the stuff on the pods but it still works. After you are finished take the whole damn plant, cut it up and steep it in hot water for an hour. Drink that water with some lemon juice. Now run outside and start another batch.

Darth, don't wait. Plant them now, if you can get around the initial problems with root rot vs evaporation, you will have a crop in the fall.

Its like 100-105 degrees on average here in the summer though, think they'll make it..?

I had some planted in the spring, but it got to hot, or something, but i had at least 30 but they all died in a few days... they were small seedlings though, guess i could start some inside.

True, mine just wilted in like two days when the heat hit, I just figured they dont plant in the middle of the heat. Few people told me to plant in fall, then they go dormant over winter and then continue to grow through spring and are hardy enough to make it through the summer heat... so i figured thats what i had to do lol..


But I dont know i've never grown them before lol.. and its not like seeds are expensive, so i'll pop some out in the garden see what happens!!


Direct sunlight, or partial shade? about to plant a few..

i would say put them in partial shade . and when they get bigger can be put in direct sunlight :) and they should be happy :) they are hard to get started at first but once get going they grow fast

I start them in 1 1/2 square peat pots 98 per flat that way I can control the temps and keep them moist long enough for germination.

Then transplant with in a week of seeing plants, you do not want to see roots coming out the walls of the peat pots, as poppies are poor transplanted if roots are distrurbed.

In a couple of weeks I thin them to one plant per location.
