I dont even know how old these are I dont really remeber when I planted them. Sorry I havent really been keeping up with journal. Theres been alot going on with work and plus Im getting ready for my outside mj grow. It already getting in high 70's down here so I have been in overdrive getting everything ready. Anyways I wanted to take some pics of these. You can see the leaves are about 9-10 inches long. There are already two nice pods showing. Also you can see in the pic where the leaf meets the stem the little growth of leaves that you see will be additional pods. I thik I will get about 15 pods off this one. I havent taken care of it. I forget to water them for a couple weeks at a time. But they should be alright. Also I started another little garden outside tonight for some more poppies. I actually had one going but then forgot to water them when they were still very young and they all died. I will try to take care of the next batch better. I will be transplanting the ones I have in this journal this weekend to the great outdoors except for 10 or so. I just dont really have the room or time for them all to be indoors. Ok for some reason its only allowing me to attach two pictures

I haven't read all the posts, so bear with me. We are growing poppies in conjunction with our med. mar. thinking it could be used to augment the pain killing propertied of MJ. I assume this has been tried, but wondering what y'all experience have been, or thoughts thereof.

Oh, it works, and works well.

Too well, in fact. In my case, it proved too addictive, and I had to quit using it. I used an alcohol extract of dried pods, very simple to make and use, all too easy to slip into serious addiction.

Be careful, is what I'm saying:peace:

Absolutely correct. I will use it as a 'treat" and nothing more. Chasing the dragon has its risks. I intend to wipe some sweet buds with the sap and set this buds aside for holidays and such.

I don't know the extraction method and I haven't tried to grow it... yet :lol:. If I do though I will consume it as it has been for centuries by the natives...simply put a wad of leaves in your mouth and chew.

I really dont understand why you guys want to grow coca, what are you going to do with it ?

Some years ago my parents brought some coca tea bags from Peru, and trust me it does not get you high. They are sold in grocery stores for making tea. A lot of ordinary people in Peru and Bolivia chew coca leaves all day long cause it gives them a slight energy boost and takes away the feeling of hunger. It gives you a slight buzz (like smoking a cigarrette for the first time almost), but it is not cocaine. Im not familiar with the process but as far as I know ... If the point is to get high .. you have to transform the coca leaves into cocaine or something else, and that is a complicated process.

ok, got those poppies going...looks good, right? about 8-10 days old...since I sowed them.
;-)
I think there are about 2 dozen there. should be enough to get at least one of each strain...I want at least one of all ten strains. that would be kool.:bigjoint:
they're in with my current grow of 24 plants, 6 strains, in flowering since March 1. I sowed these poppies just after changing the photocycle to 12/12.

6 strains, 24 plants grow
How long will it be until I can transplant them?

I think they may be a bit cluttered together, but that fine if your planning on thinning them later.. I planted them straight into 1 gallon pots, I'm going to thin them out later and keep one plant per pot. You may have a problem when it comes to thinning, as the roots will be intertwined and tear each other if you pull. Also, if you cut all but one stem from each pot, the root mass under the ground from all the others will soon die and become almost toxic. But, one you transplant into larger pots it should fix that problem for you.
