Defiantly a good sign that will be some great tea material! Hopefully next year it'll be better weather and we will both be able to grow a bunch of different varieties! I grow a couple in my indoor garden during the winter but they are really hard to get to flower under indoor conditions( only successfully did it once they usually just stay like a small bush and grow no stems)  which is kind of strange to me since a lot of different cacti strains I grow love the indoor grow light but the poppies not so much.  I envy those who have greenhouses, I'd love to grow lots of these year round to play with the genetics of them. Here's what I mean by they stay like a bush.

Yeah man, that's some crazy foliage in that top pick! The bottom pic looks like most cabbage stage plants, I'd bet if u hardened it off n moved outdoors it would flower. Provided weather is right of course. As for the top one, idk that's crazy looking lol...
There's a thread on here somewhere discussing indoor grows, and the consensus was to use red lights for growth, blue to force flowering. Idk much, if anything about indoor growth, not much else I can add to help there. But man I wish I had room for a greenhouse as well... Then again I'm probably better off lol...

Btw nice dinner plate in your sig there! Love it :thumbup:

Well, seasons all but over, so I'll throw up one last pic of the window garden. Think I'll name it "Field of Dreams"...


Only one thing left to do now... :wink:

Love the window garden! And thx I found that plate at a antique store thought my peyote would look good on it lol And yep when seasons over the last thing to do to end it is kick back with a nice cup of tea and enter your own little field of dreams:tongue:

Definitely a well balanced meal laid out there Native :crazy2: lol It really does look artistic as well... Nice little centerpiece.

Well since I can't stop the fever just yet ay as well post a few end of season "fun" pics... Here are a few ways u know your seasons over...

#1 Ugh, the rotten ones... Dang it, another one bites the dust. If it's not the rain it's high humidity...



Anyone remember crazy straws? Damn thing did a full loop, lmao...


Then, of course the biggest pods ever... Or the smallest Gig I've ever seen rather :crazy:


And well, idk what to say about this flower lol looks like it's begging to be put out of it's misery...


This was interesting... That's actual O oozing right out th base of the pod...:eek: it wasn't scored or scraped, yet there it is... **and uhh, a lil birdie told me it's definitely O :wink: lol


Btw NativePeyotee - did u say 17 DAYS OF RAIN? I just caught that, WOW that's crazy... We only had 3 days of actual rain but that was enough to do some minor damage.
The rotten one up top had a flower pedal left covering it that whole time, and it just destroyed it. I can't imagine that much water...

So uh, how's everyone doing lol? Any new pics, news or brags to share? This is the vanity thread right :cool:

Well, it's frickin August and 90 degrees or above every day, and yet these guys are STILL putting out flowers.... Maybe not the biggest and brightest, but damn this is crazy :crazy2:

Even in their final death throws they're spitting out shoots. To the lower left of the flower you can see another shoot/ bud that has yet to open... I'm amazed to be honest.



The plant is all but clinically dead lol and yet I get new color every morning... Amazing

What's everyone else up to? You peeps down south preparing for your season yet? Anyone up here prepping for a fall planting?

I'll be sowing my fall seeds in about 6 weeks, so basically I'll be pulling these guys outta the dirt and reseeding lol

Hope everyone is doing well :smile:

It's doing it again. It says deleted for both posts...

But yeah, fall is sneaking up quickly, I need to start planning my beds for the winter. What kind of timeframe before winter would be ideal to plant? Basically, how old should they be before the first frost? Winter doesn't really hit here till right at the end of the year, so I've still probably got a few months till I need to plant I imagine.

You said you lived in a similar climate as me correct? If so then you should plant around November, at least from what I've read. I did a bunch of searching around and found a few things about growing poppies in my state and it said to sow seeds driectly in the ground in late late fall

At least 6 weeks, probably better at 8. Seedlings can die off with a long frost, and snow would certainly be bad. From what I've gathered and seen (this is my FIRST fall planting as well.) they need to reach a good solid cabbage stage, then they'll winter over just fine. But again, I don't have actual experience doing it, this is just from everything I've absorbed over the years.

I watched a vid a while ago on youtube of a girl in Canada. She let her summer crop to to seed on the plant. More grew unexpectedly, and they stayed all winter thru many months of snow and deep freeze. Come spring they were way ahead of the game, and she had more than she bargained for lol  :lol:

So I'm gonna plant mine in early to mid September, depending on temps at the time. I don't want them to germinate in the heat, and possibly bolt or die off. Also don't wanna have winter set in too early and have that prob. It can be 80 on Halloween or 30 degrees, So it's gonna be tricky to time it out, but I do enjoy a good experiment :wink:

Good luck with yours though.

On a side note, check out the El Niño / La Niña affects. According to the NWS my area should expect a warmer and wetter fall than during neutral years. This may bode well for me in that it could give me enough time for them to set before freezing. I'm not a big believer in long term weather forecasts, but the El Niño this spring proved correct for what it's worth...

OH, and that pic is no biggie. Just a brown dead plant with a beautiful white n purple flower hanging off it! Lmao I just found it comical...

Hey grownright, nice to see a new face in the poppy world :smile: Late fall or even early winter is fine to sow, but those won't germinate til early spring. It's still a head start for sure, so can't complain. :smile:
Unless I misunderstood, I thought cowsrmeat was asking about germinating in fall, and allowing them to go dormant thru winter. If I misunderstood my apologies Cows...

But, either way will work.

These are from an older grow of mine back in 2007 in New Jersey. The second pic I printed and framed currently hanging in my house. If i remember they were supposed to be Dutch A1s



These below are from a grow I attempted this year(2015) in California but planted the seeds late and ended up with stunted minis because temps got too hot before it had time to grow in size and ultimate it bolted and flowered too early.




And below is a funny pic I saw on WebMD or some other similar website advertising some kind of weight loss, but the woman in the picture is in a field of poppies suggesting to me they implied opiate/opioid addiction was a good weight-loss treatment.

Yes, I was planning on getting them to germinate in the fall then just chill over the winter. We rarely, if ever get snow down here, so that shouldn't be a concern. I'm in Zone 8 so I don't think it should get too cold for them, as long as they get to the size they need to.

Thank you both for your replies and advice.

Oh okay, so would it be best to sow in say October if one wants them to germinate in fall and go dormant through winter?
And thanks :smile: I'm new to growing poppies, this'll be my first year trying it. I've tried opium once, when I was in highschool from a real old school guy I used to buy my shitty high school mids from, lol. I loved it, definitely looking forward to trying it one more time, tea form this time.

Yup, u got it.... Of course it really depends on where u live and ur normal weather patterns etc, but that's th basic idea. The life cycle of poppies is approx 4 months. They spend the first 2-3 months (depends on weather) setting root and building foliage. It's the final 6 weeks or so that the magic happens :wink:
So you want to plant early enough to allow them to root well and beef up their leaves, but NOT long enough that they'll start the flowering process. I know all weather isn't totally predictable, but if u can guesstimate about 8 weeks before a true freeze you should be fine. :thumbup:

And you're welcome... Anything I can do to help just ask. I'm not the resident expert per se lol, but I share what I can. :smile:

for indoor grows, i think you need to change the type of light to get it to flower, anyone had experience in using grow lights?
