I recently tried to extract opium from live pods and ended up with 102mg of opium from about 20 pods. Hardly even worth it. Everyone told me I should just make a tea with it so I made tea with the pods and had a very mild experience.
My issue is that I'd perfer to smoke opium rather than eat it. Does anyone know of an extraction of smokable opium from dried seed pods? The only extractions I find are for more concentrated oral forms.
I'm thinking if I just powderize some dried pods and mix with water then simmer for 10 minutes and filter this I should have all the plant alkaloids in the water without much plant matter. I'm talking about vacuum filtration through several coffee filters. Would it be worth it to save the plant matter and do another extraction or possibly two with less water?
Could I then just evaporate this water for a crude smokable opium? Will it contain a high amount of unwanted alkaloids and plant fats or maybe evaporate off into something that isn't quite smokable in terms of harsh smoke or whatever?
Anyway, why the hell is it so hard to find an extraction of codeine, morphine, thebaine, and others to a lesser extent from an aqueous solution containing all of these alkaloids?
