Ah makes sense.. they are in a greenhouse though so hope that makes a bit of difference.. there are large mango and avacado trees shading it also.a

Hi Rev, I played my california poppy seeds just over 2 weeks ago.. and now the majority of them would've come up, and are growing fine.. im sure normal poppies will be ok for me to grow if I sow them soon, this week.

Cool.. Im gonna order some Hawaiian Baby Woodrose seeds too so I might as well get it all from SAB! Did you do a grow thread on them at all, apothecary? Mind if I ask what happen? Are they hard to cultivate.. or could it be the climate? Im in WA, so its a good climate for them. My cali poppy seeds have been in the ground 17 days or so, and are cranking unbelievably.. they are in a soil/hydro mix.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me! I wouldn't want to do anything illegal. I have California poppy seeds which I bought from BIG W for growing.. they are currently 2 weeks since germination and are popping up nicely in my potting mix/rockwool soil/hydro mix. The ones which hit the rockwool clumps are noticably larger than the others.. Ill be doing more comparisons in the future with hydro and soil.. can't wait!~

Ok thanks, anyone know a good reliable source for P. somniferum seeds that will definately germinate? Herbalistics dont seem to stock them.. im still a bit confused, they are legal to grow, right? Just not to harvest/consume?

In the SAB store it has - Papaver somniferum Seeds (australian black food grade) 100g. Are these poppy seeds for eating or what? I am after GENIUNE Papaver somniferum seeds.. where would be the best place to get them? Im not after any variations like the pink peoppy as I already have pink ones coming from a friend. I am doing a display of them in my backyard, along with a few ponds and mango trees.. so I really want them all the same colour(red). Thanks Nath

I have bipolar disorder, or manic depression. I get mania really bad and sometimes it feels as if im od'ing on speed.. when I dont sleep and eat it gets REALLY bad, I can see where they are coming from. Im now on Epilim 500mg a day, Olanzapine 20mg a night, St Johns Wort 1.8gm's 3 times a day. This keeps me stable, also eating and sleeping play BIG roles in my sanity. Good read, thanks for bringing this to my attention Torsten.

23rd of October? Im still up for it!

That post said down until he fixes it.. any news at all? Hope its up and running safely soon :D
