Can one parachute poppy pods?

[Dowii]

Like instead of making tea could a person just parachute the crushed pod and obtain the same effect?

 

[cosmic charlie]

Yeah but you would have to eat a whole crap load of that nasty powder and I would think that wouldn't be worth it. It would last much longer if you did that though .

 

[Ufotofu9]

Dowii, you can definitely get off by eating pods, but you don't wan't to parachute them because depending on your tolerance, you could end up eating 15 to 30 grams of powder...or more I suppose. Heck, even with one pods worth of grounds there is no reason to parachute the grinds.

Instead, you want to grind up your pods very fine and add the powder to some liquified food to mask the taste. I like to use applesauce or yogurt to mix, but you can use whatever you want. Food that are lighter are better because you'll get higher with less food in your stomach.

And eating the grinds is a different experience than making tea. The high takes longer to come up but it lasts a loooong time. Enjoy.

And for all those helpful Blulighters who were planning on telling the Original Poster to use the Search Engine before posting a new question, let me say that the Poppy Pod MEGA THREAD is like 30 pages long. The same goes for many common questions whose answer's are buried within several page MEGA THREADS. Sometimes people don't feel like reading a books worth of old posts to get their answer when they could make just a new post with the specific Poppy Pod question as the title.

Enjoy

The only thing with eating the ground up pods is that you might have more G.I. distress than drinking the tea- cramps and the like...

then again there is really nothing at all pleasant about ingesting poppy pods regardless of the ROA...tho in this case the end truely does justify the means

 

[zrawdog]

so if you eat it do you need to use less than if you were making tea?

 

[The Chemist]

if you have that much time on your hands, get a job.

i saw this on mythbusters (eating poppy products and UA results) and IIRC, one would have to eat at least 500g of seeds to acheive a 'high'.

not worth it. if you have seeds, grow them. don't was your time picking them out of breads and muffins.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

^OP mentioned nothing about seeds, and they're much different from pods.

 

[zrawdog]

yeah i mean the ground up dried pods. i usually get high for 6-12 hours from like 4-5 tbsp of ground up pods made into tea and brewed twice, but i strain most of the straw except for the really fine material. if i were to eat this same amount (4-5tbsp) how would it affect me differently than just drinking tea made from it? i usually start to feel the physical effects from the tea (concentrated - i use about 1 cup of water for 4-5tbsp straw, and i drink it on an empty stomach usually. i also mix it with vitamin c tablets and tums if that even helps) in like 30min-1hr like my body feels heavy but i don't start feeling really good psychologically for like 2 hours or so usually and i have to smoke weed to make it work. the only time i just ate it normally before i took only 1 tbsp with yogurt and i didn't feel anything. how would it be different if i were to just eat like 5tbsp?

^ I've been doing pods almost daily for over a year. Just wanted to put that out to provide some context.

Two months ago, I switched from drinking tea (8-10 pods) to eating grounds (5-8 pods). I notice a very slight difference in effects (a little bit more energetic) but, basically, 5 pods eaten feels like 8 pods brewed into tea. I made the switch for financial reasons, but I've been pleased with the results. The grounds seem to hit me faster, and like I said, are slightly more energetic.

I did some experiments with calcium carbonate and didn't really notice any changes in the effects. But take that with a grain of salt b/c I may have been making a mistake in the process.

Anyway, I do recommend that you give grounds a try. Some people say that the w/d is worse with grounds v. tea because you're getting more alkaloids (or higher levels of alkaloids) when you eat the entire pod. I haven't experienced that. The w/d's seem about the same to me. I've also read other peoples' reports of increased constipation from eating grounds but that hasn't been my experience. But I eat a ton of fiber (freshly ground flax + steel cut oatmeal) so I don't have to deal with opiate bowel hell.

I've experimented with a number of methods of ingestion… starting with yogurt, then yogurt and a small amount of carbonated spring water (works pretty well), then a Soy Protein drink (Odwalla SuperProtein), then apple sauce, then fresh GFJ. I prefer the GFJ. It suspends the grounds so they don't stick in your throat and you get the added bonus of the potentiation. Most of the time I squeeze my own juice but I strain about half of the pulp out. Too much pulp makes it more difficult to get the grounds down.

The other good thing about using GFJ is that the bitterness of the GFJ seems to mask the bitterness of the pod material. I barely taste the pod grounds if I drink them in GFJ. You have to get the proportions straight though. Experiment and you'll find the right ratio

I re-read your post, zrawdogm, and I notice that you're only doing 4-5 Tbsp of grounds for your tea. That means you can probably get the same effects from 2 1/2 - 3 Tbsp. eaten. And you won't need much juice to do it… I'd say 6-8 oz would be more than enough juice to make a pleasing pod ground drink.

 

[zrawdog]

thanks for the good advice, i will try that next time, since it seems like it saves time and money! i've never got actual withdrawals from opiates and i just started drinking the tea about once or twice a week since two months ago since i found out about it. if i keep it infrequent like that i still won't get withdrawals even if i eat the straw right?

also i have another question i've been wondering about for a while: is the only reason people make tea from dried pods instead of eating them straight because eating the straw is gross to most people or whatever? or does it have to do with potency or effects too? i would rather just eat it from now on if the only negative thing about it vs making tea is the grossness/upset stomach. does anyone recommend against this for any reason i'm overlooking? if not, why don't more people eat it instead of make tea?

 

[Tdaddy]

just wanna chime in here. i experimented with eating the grounds since my leg was killing me and i need a dose for tomm. i only ate 3 pods and i usually make tea out of 7 or so. i felt it but it wasnt strong at all. BUT it was alot more happy and energetic for me.

tea makes me feel heavy, and tonite, i felt more energetic and happy. just like i took some pill form opies. ima try it tommorow with 4 pods and alot of stems i have from my batch. it took myself 2.5 hours to hit me

You don't pick them off breads and muffins, you buy the loose seeds. They're not expensive.

I used to parachute pods, It's the most tedious process to get high and getting down huge 'chutes SUCKS, espeically when the TP cracks and you get that nasty taste + gag reflex.

I have tried mixing it with apple sauce and yogurt and it's simply not editable, disgusting, I wouldn't even suggest trying it.

Parachuting will cause you to nod all day long which is awesome, but I stopped parachuting after I started to violently vomit every other time or so I used and resulted in being limited to do nothing but lay motionless, in pain all day(it's not like booze where you puke and all of a sudden feel better) Motion sickness pills were ineffective...

If you are going to parachute start off with a low dose, since your initial high is going to last so long, it makes re-dosing very effective - in baby steps.

 

[bighooter]

ye man

that was the only way i used to take it

you need about 13-15 large rizla parachutes for a nice dose. MILLION TIMES better than drinking that nasty tea.

 

[TomatoPaste]

I used to grind to a fine powder and spoon it into my mouth. Washing it down with water. The more you do it, the more you get used to the taste and can control your gag reflex. Not always a good thing, wd's from a habit of swallowing grounds is worse (in intensity and duration) than from the tea IME. It also plays merry havoc with your bowels! So yeah, stay safe

 

[westcoastjunky]

I never heard of this. So you do it with sun dried poppy's like the shit woman use for crafts?

Just a note: I assume GFJ is grapefruit juice and, although, you all probally know grapefruit juice enhances the potency of opiates and benzos. It works best if you drink it 45 minutes to an hour before taking the drug. Also, tonic water (not selzer), and cimetidine (tagmet), does the same. Dextro methoraphine (ex: Mucinex DM or Robitussin DM, any generic) is supposed to work really well. One guy said he takes all of them together and gets double the efffect. (Can't always believe what you read) But some of these have given me better results after taking my normal dose!
