Post by Lrus007 »

here is pg's poppy thread *twilsons idea....
i planted my plot a few weeks ago. but my brother has
a bunch of free range birds, they ruined the plot. well he
felt bad. so today he got me a 1/2 pick up truck of cow
compost from dairy farm he is pouring cement at. so i spread
it into my garden barrels and the rest into poppy plot.
i tilled it in 4 times and planted. looks great will see what
tomorrow brings. the white on top is not seed it is fert's i spread
after i planted. wonder how fucked up it will be tomorrow...

to plant poppys till soil fine. then spread seeds on top do NOT cover.
let rain wash them into soil. add a high N fert composted chicken shit
is about the best. plant in late fall or early spring.
thats about it for now get planting if you have seeds...

Is that a trainwreck? I'm color blind.

Have you ever tried poppy?
