Opium Dreams

Ok everyone, veteran grower here of MJ, mushrooms, and poppies, diving back into another poppy grow!

Details:
Grow Medium - soil (miracle gro organic)
Seeds Planted - 25x, 12/10/2009
Variety - Persian White (the best)
Location 1 - inside, unheated crawlspace to germinate (damn squirrels)
Location 2 - outside, on patio (its not illegal until you cut the pods) lol
Lights - CFL only, 12/12 (doesnt matter)

Started with germinating them all in an unheated crawlspace, with one wimpy CFL to give them SOMETHING. Misted the soil cause the seeds are as small as a grain of sand. My plans, after they germinate, is move half outside, and keep the other half inside crawl space (they love cool weather, remember) under extreme CFL lighting to force them. I want to see which method produces more, quicker, etc.

12/23/09 - one poppy has sprouted, although its a little weak looking. have a humidity dome over the pot (some plastic wrap stretched across it) to hopefully keep in the moisture so it doesnt dry out. amazing how these things will grow wild with no help, but its a PIA to sprout them on purpose and keep them alive!
