I'm wanting to know what the average percent of morphine is in dried opium pods?
Here is a quote from Ironmics from the linked thread on drugs-forum.com -

Ironmics says on average the morphine content should be 1.5% but really will be closer to 1%.
Thus 50grams of dried pods should contain about 500mg of morphine. This to me sounds like a good quantity.
Does anyone know if this is true?

All of you are talking about alkaloid content in OPIUM, which yes is in the neighborhood of 10-15%, this has nothing to do with the morphine content in dried pods. From one preperation I've seen it looked to extract pretty pure opium from pods. The extract was around 1/6 of the weight of the pods. If this was pure raw opium and the content was morphine content was 10% then the morphine content of the pod would be around 1.5% of the total weight. However, I doubt that it is pure, my optimistic estimates would put the number closer to 1%. This person used about 50 grams of pods, so that would put his morphine output at 500mg....not too shabby.
Also the extracted "opium" is widely regarded as unsmokable. Swim has a lot of experience with smoked raw opium also, and enjoys oral opium much much more.
