![]() ![]() Since I live in Israel, the winters are quite mild with no snow, obviously. Worst case, I can remove the scrawny seedlings to prevent overcrowding, and can I add more soil if the plants need more room in the future? However, only about 6-7 of them look healthy and are growing at a steady rate. If that is the case, is the current growing medium a good size? I have one of those long plastic planter pots, and I've got about 10-12 seedlings in the pot. So you're saying since I planted my seeds late in the year, they'll only produce pods next summer? Is it possible to force-flower poppies if I don't want to wait until summer? This is by far the most informative comment on this thread. Make sure they get dappled indirect sunlight as extreme heat tends to prematurely Force Bloom them. It's going to take another month or two before they start to resemble anything like cabbage. but you're poppy sprouts look very healthy. ![]() A six-month-old Poppy with 10 Fruit versus a 6-month Poppy with three fruit we'll both produce the same amount of latex, given they are the same cultivar.Įdit: I never answered your question, sorry. The older the poppy, the more it produces. Poppy pods are a fruit by the way.Īnd just to clear something up that no amateur Poppy grower seems to know, but it is not the number or size of poppy fruit that increases the yield. ![]() If you're poppies continue to stay as healthy as they look now and if you have a very mild winter, they will continue to produce cabbage like vegetation until the following summer.Ī poppy that is over wintered, depending on variety or cultivar can produce a surplus of pods. But a truly happy vigorous Poppy will not flower until the long hours of summer reaches over 15 hours of daylight. Pops are finicky and can bloom at the drop of a hat into something the size of a Skittle. I've been doing this for about two weeks and so far, they're still alive. When I get home from my job at around 4:30 PM, there's still enough sun, so then I move them to the windowsill and water them a bit. (Learned this after about a week, had to replant my seeds.) Now, I have a job, so I can't be at home to tend to them, so I put them in a shadier spot without direct sunlight. I live in Israel where the climate is very hot, so that's how I discovered that leaving poppies all day on the windowsill in the hot sun without enough water is a great way to kill most of my first crop. Is this normal, for three week old poppy seedlings? My main concern is that they are still extremely small and have not been growing much. But I read that this is common with poppies, and sure enough, they seem to have recovered and they look healthy. About a week ago they started falling over and the stems became very thin, so I thought they'd fallen victim to the infamous "damping off" phenomenon. Anyway, I've had these poppy seedlings (images attached below) for three weeks and they are growing extremely slowly. I had many difficulties so far (wrong type of soil, too much sun, not enough water) but now I think I'm on the right track. I've been growing poppies for about 3 weeks now.
