I have poppy seeds. Can I grow them now?
    #14282398 - 04/13/11 06:26 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Some seeds are soaking in a glass of water, and alot are still in the pack.
Could I just throw these seeds onto some hacked up dirt and cover with a thin layer of more dirt,
then lightly water.
Will this work? They Are in direct sunlight..
and it is autumn, so when can I expect pods? Next summer?

Help would be great

Yea that will be fine. No need to cover, just scatter 'em.
Throw more down in spring for a second crop.
Pods for summer!

Did you get papaver somniferum (opium poppy) seeds or different kinds of poppy seeds?

The light covering is mainly to prevent birds and them drying out. I'm sure it's not required but definitely recommended.

I put a heap of seeds on soil and covered them with more soil. Now ants are taking away all my seeds!! What do I do?
No birds jut ants.

Can I put a thicker cover over them?

I left the seeds in water over night and now they have heaps of little green roots coming off them.
I then sprinkeled them over dry dirt and added black soil over the top. A thin layer. And sprinkled water on them.
The water has dried, do I rewater and how often?

dude theres no need to soak them.u dont want premature roots being formed before they are put in the soil. u just loosen the surface of the soil, then u sprinkle them ina little at a time. never drop a heap of seeds into one spot. if u do this theyll all die from root strangle. u literally sprinkle them and then u apply a very fine spray of water to have them gently move into the soil surface. u can add a thin layer of dirt onto and then lightly water agin, this is okay but dont burry them too deep. just a covering of any a few mm's.

ants? sucks for u. maybe u should plant somewhere where u dont have ant issues. and also not plant in one big heaping drop. scatter those seeds everywhere and put a thin layer of soil onto. ive never had ant issues, thankfully, so i cant help u there mate':cool:
