Thank you all for the warm welcomes!
I just moved in with a family member in the U.S. where the Papaver somniferum grow everywhere. I am a chronic pain suffferer and had to drop out of school due to an injury. I started PM 25 yrs ago for chronic pain and have had three surgeries and been on about every legal opiate since.(Dome,Dialuda,Oxy,benzos,norco, and on and on)I am on nothing now and hurting! I am trying to get positive ID on these plants in my yard to use for medicine . Scoring green pods or having pounds of dried ones lying around are not an option for me. A friend of mine who broke his back recently blended a few green pods with some white grapefruit juice and said it cured everything that ailed him for about 2 days. I would like to get a positive ID on these and find out if their are ways to utilize the green pods/flowers. Thanks for the help!
