Opioids Ultimate Poppy Pod/Seed Tea Mega Merged Thread III

redosing

is redosing poppy seed tea effective? I made some out of 360 grams of seeds and feeling mild effects but I want a good nod (havent had one in months). I'm opiate naive for the most part. Would dosing another 240 grams be effective at all? A reply within the next half hour would be stupendous
 
Redosing poppy tea works fine. It's the same as redosing morphine.

edit: it may even be more effective as the minimal codeine could inhibit some liver enzymes if I'm not mistaken
 
The redose did indeed work, but seemed to take almost two hours to kick in, though it kicked in strong. Perhaps this is due to slow GI tract from first dose? or just poppy tea peaking in general around 3 and a half hours in?
 
If there is a lack of gastric emptying (possibly due to upset stomach from previous dose) it just sits there for a while. One of the problems with instant release oral morphine; dosage buildup.

i have not tried poppy pods and Id like to try them out. I have a pretty high tolernce to opiates now. Is it worth buying the pods now? I get paid tommorow and was going to buy pods. Whats the best strain to get, and are they good now or..?

As I think I mentioned to you in a previous post, this is the worst time in many years to use pods as a bridge between scripts or as a guarantee against sickness from dope, or as an effective pain reliever for CP patients.

It's a cotdamn shame, but the era may be coming to an end. It certainly has for this season at least. I've read that Jane and Johnny Poppyseeds have sown their own this fall. But the commercial business has taken an enormous hit this season b/ the rains, the crackdown in Arizona (32 million+ strong pods) and the tiny, creeping, but certain steps that have been taken to minimize pod shipments across or within US borders.

I don't know of a single person with a medium/high tolerance who was maintaining on pods who hasn't made alternate plans for the winter/spring/future. (Or hasn't already switched to drugs that profit corporations rather than small business owners.) It may not be the end, but this year has emphatically demonstrated that pods are on the DEA's map now. Any reliance on them for staying well is a very risky, and mostly fruitless, business for the consumer.

It's not surprising and many had predicted this day a few years ago, but it's a damn shame as, in many ways, pods are the least debilitating and most effective of CP meds available They rank up there with methadone for controlling nerve-pain.

No news to most, but I guess it might be a eulogy for pods. And another warning to those who don't have a pod habit or are depending on pods to keep them well between copping or refills. To quote some old hip-hop song… the name escapes me right now, "It was all fine just a year ago…"

I have a question

Are the seeds from dried pods viable?
Click to expand...


Anyone? If it needs to be said, i'm not scheming to develop some kind of opium factory. If only that were practical :D ..but i digress.. I love the look of the Afghans and want to grow them at some point to add some character to my drab little garden (i've only grown mint, pepper, carrots and tomatoes in there so far). Plus i figure, better to get seeds now than wait till they're all banned or something 8)

Also, i'm aware that some somniferum species are capable of growing in a wide range of climates, but i'm curious if one is preferential to another and if there are particular strains that have been bred to favor one type of environment over another.. like say, one is bred for the Mediterranean climate or to be grown at a high elevation in the desert

Mainly i want to know if Afghans are suited to grow in Southern California..

Cheers :)
 
The one thing I should add about redosing: your second dose takes a long time to kick in, but it lasts an insanely long time. I dose at 8pm last night, it is now 2pm the next day and I'm still high. It kicked in around 10pm I'd say, so thats a 16 hour duration (with 9 of those being from sleep). I also had a couple grapefruit beforehand which may play a factor in the insane duration.
 
Is there ever/usually an issue with dried pods lacking potency?

I rarely use opiates since i have a naturally high tolerance to them, i.e anything weaker than morphine does very little for me- recreationally or pain-relief wise - 20mg liquid morphine was my first dose ever, and it got me pretty high, but i didn't get really high/almost nodding till i tried 60mg.. so maybe not worth looking into this.. but i'm still curious

I would expect them to be viable (they haven't been treated or anything, and that they would do superbly in California. It is illegal though.
 
what is the advantage of making tea vs just eating ground up pods?
Click to expand...
Not having to ingest large amounts of plant matter.

There easily can be and it is has become more common recently. Generally once you find a consistent good supplier you can be more certain of good potency, but the potency is even different batch to batch.

I agree it is. I'm sure when all is said and done and pods disappear the industry will have created some fresh heroin addicts.

I kind of am sad I will most likely never get to experience the odd glow of all the opiate alkaloids and their flavor, that, while unpleasant is nostalgic and brings back fun memories. Their combination gave a unique high which no other drug matches. Maybe not as euphoric, but oddly warm.

As I've read, and agree, poppy pods ratios of opiates worked cumulatively for a fun, only from poppies, experience.
Click to expand...

I agree with this. When the pods were still available via a large auction-oriented internet retailer, and still cheap and of high quality, I used to use the tea regularly and it controlled my moderate (at the time) pain very well, as well as being euphoric when I wanted to use it recreationally.

I would sometimes cook it down into a smoke-able product, and one time I was able to acquire a large enough amount that I could perform an acid-base extraction which yielded all 30+ of the alkaloid salts in nearly pure form. This used to be used medicinally as "Pantopon": Pan = all, and Opon signifies that it comes from the opium poppy. Having all of the alkoloids together in the ratios which they naturally come in makes for a wonderful compound with a unique high. Of all the opiates I've done, I would have to rate it as a very close second to my favorite. It certainly is a very different experience than any other type of opiate, Very natural and very pleasant.

It is kinda sad that it's pretty much the end of an era for the quasi-legal use of pods, but it may save some from addiction. The flip side is that it may leave people who really need the relief in pain.
I guess we'll see what happens.
 
As pod prices are now about 10x what they were a couple years ago, I have started tapping into my poppy pod stem collection - 3 years worth of stems.

Making tea out of ground up stems works pretty well (~50% the strength of pods) so be sure not to throw them away.

It seems as this is the end of the PPT era, and what a sad ending it is.
 
New poppy pod thread

So John Travolta recently got some poppy pods for the first time, and asked me for some advice on administration. I didn't know what to tell him so I figured I'd ask you guys on here for advice.

I see a lot of threads on making tea or slurries, and was wondering which method yields optimal potency.

Which would you recommend?

And are there any generally agreed upon methods for either? I see a lot of recipes on here for both. From simply powedering and mixing in grapefruit juice,
to cold water extracting into a tea or hot water extracting into a tea.

Can somebody offer me some solid advice? I really dont want to fuck it up for Johnny, hes gone through some tough times and doesnt have the resources to waste pods.

tl;dr OPTIMAL METHOD FOR POPPY ADMINISTRATION.

No plugging, though. Travolta only likes the wang in there, not enemas.

I'm going to merge this in with the poppy megathread.

Consuming the plant matter will ensure you get all the alkaloids but is more likely to make you puke. I would recommend a tea.

There are a variety of methods but that is mainly because almost every method works. You have ground plant matter with a water soluble alkaloid stuck to the outside. Placing it in water is going to get it to dissolve into solution and you'll be all set.

poppy seed tea

i understand the process of making it. just wondering if instead of shaking it for 20 min, cud i just leave it out all night and would it still be mixed right by the morning?
 
There are a lot of oils in the actual seeds which you don't want leeching into the water. All the active ingredients are on the outside which come off relatively easily. Also left overnight the seeds will absorb water, water that has good active alkaloids in it, so you will get slightly less.

I'm going to merge this into the megathread.

So once a tea is made there should still be some alkaloid content on the bits of left over plant matter right? So should I reuse the matter when I make another batch of tea?


But just so I'm clear, you ARE saying that making a tea doesn't potentiate the effects at all, but simply makes it easier on the stomach?
 
yes. Usually extractions are done 3 times in general lab procedures, it is the standard.

and yes, the tea just makes it easier on you and easier to absorb, it hits faster too.
