Well I had nothing to do this morning so I biked around and found a patch of ripe pods and picked probably 40 or so, between the size of dimes and quarters. I just cut about 11 of the smaller ones up and made a tea with em and drank it so I'm just waiting for the effects, I'll keep you all filled in since as far as I know - nobody has ever made a FRESH pod tea report. I'll keep you posted...
They're the oriental variety - rumored to be stronger than somniferum. All I got was relief from my W/D so I'm assuming 11 pods was too little. Next batch I'm using a blender (rather than scissors) and using the rest of the pods (25-30) I also didn't use boiling water, just hot tap water which I'm sure wouldnt have much of a difference but boiling always worked for me... I'm just brewing up another batch now... 24 of the small pods ground to basically mush in a blender with boiling water poured in... just gotta wait 20 minutes then drink it... wish me luck. (otherwise this was all for nothing lol)
Opium poppies grow wild in most parts of the world, don't they? Plus, I know there are a lot of field in canada cuz you can grow them there I believe.
Yeah well the tea didn't do shit... maybe the pods are too small or something? I don't know... Back to good ol oxy today (if I can find some)
Hey Twizz glad to see it wasn't some crazy trap or something,I was wondering if you ever got those or not. It sucks they didn't do anything..you said they were the size or dimes and quarters seems kinda small to me like you said. I'm not a poppy expert but what I've seen there usually bigger than that.Oh well atleast you gave it a go.
oriental poppy varieties will NOT get you an opiate high, they do NOT produce the desired alkaloids (morphine/codeine). The only species of poppy that does produce these alkaloids are Papaver Somniferum! Good luck finding real pods dude...
