I bought the seeds and been growin them for years, I also love hens & chicks they are cool as hell lookin with all the littl pods surrounding the main. The india fringed is another cool lookin one. You can get them at most ethno garden sites or on auction sites.

Papaver somniferum. You can get them from most seed companies. Don't call them opium poppy. Call them by their name. Papaver somniferum seeds.

Look up papaver somniferum, thats the opium poppy. They are some times called breadseed poppies. And yes you can grow them hydroponically but soil is better for them, as they get older they prefer less water. Their are several strains you can buy. The ones I like are the Tasmanian, Peshawar (album) white's some times called Persian white's. This is a small breed but has a real high alkaloid content like the tasmanian. I also like the hen's & chicks, gigantinum's, and the zahir' which is A small breed like the peshawar. Those are my top pics, there is a lot of others that are pretty good.

Only if its the papaver somniferum...most red poppies are the papaver Oriental, papaver rhoeas(Shirley poppy). None of these have narcotic alkaloids, well the oriental poppy has a tiny bit of codine, its like 0.02. Not worth fuckin with
.. Hope this info helps you out,and be very careful, if you get caught scoring the pods you'll go to jail. If your goin to use them in a medicinal or recreationally you can ovoid scoring them and just chop them up and brew a tea with them.harris hawk

One needs to grow many poppies to get any worth while product - the number you are growing is a start -but when harvesting you will understand what I mean. It is interesting to cultivate them but many, many are needed. Growing and harvesting them is a very hard process -let me know when you "lance" them can give pointers. Growing them is not worth the risk, we are talking federal time -the law is unforgiving about poppy cultivation. Good Luck
