This pic is a couple days out.
The pod is about ripe if you were into lancing. ( that's a no no!) View attachment 3908952The color is a blue gray . it didn't pic up so well under the m.h.
So that's really cool that you can grow it indoors...so forgive me for asking but what next? Do you just scratch the pod, make it weep (or whatever the term is) and then what? Put the sap into a pipe. I'm really curious.

I dug up small clumps being sure to go fairly deep. Many along the edge of the dig will die . 0519171902.jpg


I selected my New home for them.0519171902b.jpg

I transplant many clumps into several areas around the yard , this way I'll know were I can and can't plant them.

I've got to pull a bunch now to free up room. They are at the max size before they get really root tangled and damage neighboring plants as they get pulled out.. I really hate pulling perfectly fine plants but it's a must or they won't do worth a shit.

i figured you'd get a kick out of this. First time in years that I've read about anyone in US getting busted for growing PS. LE wasn't even looking for this guy's grow, he confessed at the door!

Damn!!! That's fucked up.. A knock and talk turns into a opium bust.lol.
I think it said just over an Acer of poppies , that wouId be a he'll of a sight and would definitely think more then for medicinal use.

just cover everything you see with lawn clippings and shredded leaves, topdress with a bit of bonemeal to add calcium, that alone will loosen it up and make it fluffy and black.

what in the hell use the seeds to regrow . Not to much because addicts will be camping out near the area
