Errol's Poppy Season Thread
    #19125553 - 11/12/13 09:52 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Just planted my poppies yesterday, will update this thread with pictures of this season.
It may be a little late for some of you because the frost has already come, but i'm in SOCal and the night temps are perfect for germination!  :homerpods:


edit: Ask any questions about your pods here and I will do my best to answer! :bigjoint:

If you sow them now you harvest in late spring/early summer. If you sow in spring you harvest in late summer/ early fall. You theoretically can have two harvests a year, depending on where you live.

Thank you very much itsaconspiracy! Its dropped down to the mid 50's low 60's at night where I am, which is perfect. Also they need the sunshine during the day for germination,so LA winters are perfect for poppies. I know this season will be good, I can feel it.  :feelsgoodman:

Hey could you explain how you thin to clusters of 2 or 3 without killing or damaging the poppies? and what does it look like before planting and after?

You just pull out the weaker looking sprouts, leaving clusters every few inches.
Its easy to just tug them out by hand. I dont know how else to explain it. :shrug:

Heres another shot:


The crown on the pod will turn upwards and brown when ready for harvest.

sorry bro I was asking more about how strong the root system is like could just pulling them out of the soil damage whatever root system they've created. I thought by clusters you were gonna dig up small chunks of soil with 3 or 4 sprouts on it.

The roots are weak and delicate. They do best when you eliminate competition allowing your healthiest seedlings to get the best head start. Curious how your yield is without the longer hours spring and early summer provide. Any slow growth issues?

Heres an update:



Thinned out now, but still not completely thinned. Gave them some ferts today, not on the heavy side and quite diluted. Should be seeing some vigorous growth soon, poppys start very slow, but once well established, with well developed roots, and given a lot of space both in depth and width will grow quite vigorously.
I wish I had the room to plant in the ground, you can get huge plants!

Hmm. You're making me wanna do this. Since I'm completely inexperienced, how do you germinate them? Do you sprinkle them on top of the dirt and leave them outside? Should I put water on them? Should they be buried just a little? I'm sorry, I know these questions are stupid but everyone has to start somewhere.

Not stupid questions at all!
You just spread them on top of the soil, because they need a lil sun to germinate also they like the cold night temps of winter,unless you get frost/snow.
Dont water heavily at all because they have very weak root structures especially when first germinating. It will take 10 days until you see little two leaved shoots pop up, continue to water daily and gently. A few months later you should have some juicy pods!

:tee:

I love harvesting my homegrown pods at the end of the season, so rewarding. Definitely a fun plant to add to your ethnobotanical garden, just be careful not to get hooked!
