poppy seed tea: was it done right?

[scottdot]

one ordered a 4lb bag of unwashed seeds but wanted to try it before it got here ( impatient).

proceeded to get 190 grams of poppy seeds from the market and some lemon juice.

added all 190 grams to a twenty oz bottle and filled with hot tap water about an inch above the seeds and added a few tablespoons of lemon juice ( 100% ).

shook for ten minutes, then loosened the bottle cap and strained into a cup. this method surprisingly got darn near all of the water out.

I sipped on it over a period of about four hours ( being careful, as this is my first time and I heard potency can very greatly). it produced about 8 oz of opaque lightish yellow tea. it wasn't too bitter, probably because of the lemon juice. i only took a few small drinks every half hour or so.

no noticeable affect ( besides a headache)

did I: not use enough seeds? drink too slowly? brew it wrong? bad seeds?

I should mention I usually spread out about 100mgs of hydrocodone throughout the day so I guess that's my tolerance level.

feedback would be appreciated! ( also is headache a common occurrence or is this unrelated to the seeds)?

also I should note I didn't have any wds from not taking hydro today though.

is there such a thing as a non opium poppy seed? like a different strain? or do they all contain morphine, codeine

I bought at a natural health store in the spice section. they were black and blue and tiny.

First off it sounds like you did it correctly and you are right about potency but being that you have that kind of tolerance you probably messed up by spacing it out so long.
Another thing is that the batches are incredibly inconsistent. There have been times where i have gotten a really good superb high from just i believe 1 pound of seeds and others where i get nothing from 2 pounds. It sounds like you just spaced it out way too long imo. And i usually do two washes and then i get a strong sedating high. The high is different of hydrocodone so if youre expecting that type of high you will be disapointed. Try looking into getting some bali kratom or uei kratom. That is a good cheap high that for me lasts almost all day with just a tablespoon. People will say kratom wont touch you hardly with an opiate tolerance but i can do 80 mg of hydro easy and kratom works just fine for me and isnt as hard to get off of as poppy tea which is worse than heroin ime

Both those 2 most likely, basically a combination. Unless the seeds are super coated with opium then you are not going to feel much off 200 g. Most seeds are washed before being sold today, so its unlike to find super strong ones. But it was smart to start low, always start low and you should do the same thing when you get the mail ordered seeds because odds are they will be stronger. Poppy tea takes a while to kick in so don't get antsy, give it a good hour or 2 before taking much more.

The seeds also could have been high in thebaine content, which would cause only unwanted effects: stimulant like but not pleasant. These days more and more seeds are high in thebaine and low in morphine because they are bio engineered to be used to synthesize a lot of phamaceuticals like oxycodone, buprenorphine, oxymorphone, naloxone and some others.


Just again I will stress that just because those seeds were bunk, doesn't mean the next batch will be. Even if you got more from the market you stand a risk of them being significantly more potent. They are impossible to predict.

edit: I will also concur that the method was fine, and basically the exact method I used when I was doing the stuff on a regular basis.

Also I suggest you reconsider the seeds as they are very addictive and withdrawal is long and awful. Also there are a lot of unknowns regarding possible health risks involved in the use of seed tea. I know it seems like a godsend because you can get hgh all day for like 10 bucks worth of seeds, but as they say if it seems to good to be true it probably is.

basically I'm using it to hold over between script refills. so probably a week out of the month.

I certainly don't plan on getting addicted tothis stuff. but I know how plans go.

I'll try more, from a different place.

I don't mean to bump but I wanted to state that kratom is banned here in Indiana. just like pods, I could probably still safely order it off the internet and not get questioned about it but I'd rather not.

I got the stuff I ordered online. Did 300 grams. got the effect of taking about 2 Norco 10s. guess that's okay.. maybe I'll drink faster next time ( took 4 hours again) since its the same batch and I guaged the potency. is this safe?

I'll wait about a week and try 400 grams in 2 hours.

Will any experienced pst users pm me for brand discussion? I know it's not allowed here in the boards but we could talk in pm or arrange to talk off of this site.

sorry for all of the consecutive posts.

I got it to work lol. I ended up having to use two pounds. I still drank slowly and titrated up to how I wanted to feel.

this is some good shit!!! it feels as if I've taken 100-120mg hydrocodone.

I mostly wanted to see if it worked. I realize I need to treat it with respect. I'm done for a while and my only future purpose for it is to stave off withdrawals if I can't find any hydros.

I hope I'm ok using that much. I know I'm ok from the amount of narcotics I just don't know how much of whatever else is in there I've consumed ( pesticides, cadmium, etc).. so I hope I don't end up in the er. I don't think I will though.

it's relieving to know if I'm high and dry that real relief is at the super market.

thanks for your support.

So I went ahead and used the rest of the bag. You know because I am an addict and can't keep anything around lol (I'm sure a lot of you are like that as well).

I understood coming in that this high would be different from hydrocodone high so I tried to appreciate it by itself and not expect the hydro feeling.

This high is much more of a body high. It's very sedating.. Not sleepy kind of sedating.. But rather heavy feeling, if that makes sense.

All in all, it's OK. Better than being straight. But I don't think I like it much. Plus the PST tastes nasty.

I just wanted to experience poppy seed tea but I don't think I'll be doing it much anymore, if at all.
