try it and see...once the pod gets milked it shrivels and dies off. only way to get seed is leave the pods untouched.
btw, this is only a novelty kind of thing and unless one plants acres and acres of the stuff all you'll have is a few grams at any one time, at most. but the flowers are nice and for a couple weeks you'll have plenty of color as long as you mix your strains (there are far more than one p. somnif's).

I ask because I am nearing a little cut down here in about 7days. I have flushed very heavily 3 times now, you think that's enough to get all that fert out of there?
Oh and if anyone starts winging on how this is cannabis.com not opium.com i swear im gonna break into there house, steal there modem and bitchslap them.
Isn't this site called Cannabis.com, not opium.com/ Sheesh! ;)
I personally would never cut the compound leaves off. For the last 2 or 3 days I deprive my plants of water and use a nutrient flush.Quote:

well, i knew it was addicting, but is there anything besides that?
Good links there, wouldn't mind trying opium. Might just order meself some seeds :).
Although the yeild isn't very high, as long as it keeps me content then I'm happy. I'm not looking to sell anyway.
you think if i plant all 4500 seeds in this big space of land i have, i could get a pretty sizeable amount? im thinking of just aerating my front lawn and scattering them all over. that would be fun! hehe.
yeah rip your lawn right out and sod it and you can. here is a pic of a few I grew last summer. I didn't harvest any o and I dont think it would be worth it unless you had tons and tons of them growing. I bought a seed pack of 10,000 with 10 varieties including gigantheums wich I have yet to find and grow out of my seed pack. They are easy as hell to grow though and they have high germination rates.
also the seeds are tiny so if you mix them with sand and then spread that they wont be as close together when they sprout
veg and flower light cycles are reversed for poppies too :D
veg and flower? please explain the difference? im sure flower means for it to grow pedals but whats "veg"
vegatative growth stage. This happens after the seedling stage and with poppy plants it is sometimes called the lettuce stage because it looks just like lettuce growing. This stage is 12 hours on and 12 off for your lighting. Flowering stage happens when you put the light on 24/0.
okay so after you cut the pod open and try the black paste is it ready to consume or does it need further treating, and where does red opium come from
yes but it can be washed first too. And red rock opium if that's what you mean is incense at your local head shop. It comes from the berry of some other plant and has nothing to do with opium. I have seen it going around and tried some but the stuff just melted down into the bowl so I got rid of that shit due to the fear of what it does to your lungs.
the most famous opium is "black-Tar"
i may buy a pack, plant em... who knows?
What are yields like??? and how much is a single dose of opium?
Its not to hard..if the chinese can do it..anyone can! ahahahaha jk...
hey dude
the chinese can do oragami, and i can't do that shit
!!
any particular strain of Opium Poppy that's the best ( turkish maybe??? should i go with that??? )
the chinese do alot of things i have no hope of doing......6 year old kids make shoes....i wont be able to do that in my lifetime
what time of year should i plant for the biggest yeild? i am thinking earaly march/late february. they are supposed to finish in like 55 days. according to the website afghani speacial plants are ready to slice at 55 days. (estimation)
