third try
So I was curious what PST-only would feel like, so last night I picked up 5 70g containers of supermarket poppy seeds. This would finally bring me up to 350g, the amount everyone has been saying is the "sweet spot."
But again, sheesh, at $7 a bottle, this is NOT the way to go (definitely a good deturrnent for addiction).
I poured them all into the 2-liter bottle, and in addition to warm water, added an 8th of a cup of fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice (I've read many times this MAY help extract the alkalides from the seeds. It certainly makes it taste better and can't do any harm).
Shook bottle for about a minute, left laying on it's side for 10, shook again, squeezed out juice (using the semi-twisted cap trick). Made one big, full cup.
Drank.
Refilled container, this time let sit for almost 20 mins.
Drank.
This time, no valium chaser!
I must say, it was a nice, mellow, spacey high. It was what I would expect based on what i've read. It wasn't a major trip, but if I added another two bottle of seeds and/or added another opiate pill of some sort, it definitely would have been.
Now please keep in mind, I'm a big guy - over 6 foot and about 200 pounds. Plus it has always taken more than the recommended dosage of anything to work on me. So this same recipie would probably hit an average height/weight person much harder.
Now it time to get some actualy dried poppy bulbs and "do it right." From everything I've been reading, using the seeds is sort of a "ghetto" version of the true poppy high. To do it right, it looks like people get the actually dried-up poppy bulb plants the seeds come from, dicard the seeds, and crush up the empty bulbs to make the tea.
So, time to hunt some down. And I'll still probably find some bulk seeds. God knows it would be cheaper!
