Can I grow poppies on cactus soil mix?
    #19258465 - 12/11/13 01:21 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

So I got sum bridgesii cactus seeds and sum giganteum opium poppy seeds I want to grow this winter and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to grow the poppies in the cactus soil. Cactus soil is just soil with like 30% sand and 15% perlite (not sure exactly) for better drainage. I know poppies like a little bit of sand in their soil so I was thinking the cactus soil might be perfect for them.

Btw, its possible to grow poppies indoors with 8 T18 florescent lights with reflectors and LEDs, and a fan right? Theyre lights for growing corals in saltwater fish tanks. I know I have to change the lighting time to make them flower, just like growing weed indoors.

I had EXCELLENT results when I grew pods in my outdoors cactus plot - after moving my cactus in for the winter. I think they like the sandy soil. Others may have had different results but mine did very well.

Good that they grow well on cactus soil, I thought they would. I'm just looking for enough for 5 doses or less of smokable opium, I just bought the poppy seeds along with the bridgesii cactus seeds because it only costs $5 for 1500+ seeds, not bad. My room is the coldest room in the house on average it's about 62°in the winter so I think they'll germitate. Right? Or I can move them into the basement while germinating with the window cracked open. It's a frozen tundra in NJ this time of year. In the spring and fall I do plan on planting some outside but I just want a lil bit for now.
