Trying to come off a moderate opiate habit. I'm thinking opium tea even if it was legit won't even touch a 200mg daily habit of oxy? Any thoughts or experience making it? I tried it once and it was a huge waste of money and time.
 
Pod tea? It is real and it is glorious. You can make it as strong as you want, and it will last a lot longer than oxy too. I am not trying to encourage you. If you tried it once and it didn't work, were you using seeds? You need to use the ground up pods themselves.
 
ok... to prevent myself from rambling i've made a few brief bulleted points so i dont go off on a tangent.

•this belongs in OD
•PST definitely works, and if ErgicMergic sees this, i'm sure he'll set you straight on preparation/dose/etc.
•Using simple logic, if opium, morphine and thebaine are all found in a poppy seed pod, then surely consuming seeds would have an effect. It's not bullshit, I've tried it.
•Most poppy seed vendors/brands/companies wash their seeds, which removes some (most) of the active ingredients from the seeds. Find a brand that doesn't wash their seeds.
•Poppy seed tea is not opium. Oral opium and oral PST are very different-feeling drugs. PST is very mild, reminds me of codeine back when it used to get me properly high, while smoked opium is like being in a dream, and it's VERY sedating IMO and psychedelic. The nod is strong with opium, I just don't like the fact that it's really difficul... ooh... sorry I can't finish this post, Rock the Casbah just came on shuffle! Bye now.

Lmao thanks for the help Bigfan! Can't say I agree on your song preferences though..ha!
 
poppy seed tea is absolute rubbish compared to pod tea. for example pod tea is actually pretty much oral opium. and bigfan you said yourself "PST is very mild." with pod tea you can nod shitloads, why mess with unwashed seeds when you can make a brew of the pods themselves? it's like smoking marijuana leaves instead of the flowers.
 
I'd like to venture a guess and say that the reason it didn't work was because the active ingredients get easily destroyed at a rather low temperature - in making poppy tea you have to make sure that the water is hot enough to cause diffusion; not so hot so as to destroy the morphine etc.
Apparently below 75 degrees is the way to do it
 
Pod tea will touch 200mg oxy habit and give you worse habit instead. There is basically no limit to the strength of the tea, people have needed up too 100mgs of methadone to hold the pod wd. It's good for withdrawing from shorter acting stuff though if you like less severe but longer withdrawals instead of intensity, it's really up to your taste.
 
Why use opium tea cotaining various amounts of opiates each dose to taper down? Wouldn't it be easier to just taper the oxy? At least you will know what dosage you need/get every time you take it so to me it seems it should be easier to just cut down on the pills slowly.

You buy a bunch of pods, dust them in to a powder and there you have a pretty uniform distribution of alkaloids from where you can measure out doses.
 
I think there must be massive differences in the alkaloid content of pods. I tried several different vendors back when they were sold on ebay. Even though I followed all instructions and the tea came out dark brown and very bitter, the effects seemed minimal. And I had NO tolerance back then. So try a number of sources and don't be surprised if many are weak you have to search for a strong one. But treat them all as strong until you know for sure.
 
Yeah it's real. I developed a heavy addiction to pod tea that lasted years. But you have to find good pods- and nowadays they're hard to find and hella expensive.
 
ya the best nods I ever got were off pods back in like 05 or 06. this includes injecting oxy and hydromorphone. i used to wear 2 pair of jeans b/c I would burn my self so bad without feeling it. i could sometimes smell the jeans burning.. better than flesh. like 8-12 hour complete unreal nods. nothing like it. I've tried very high doses (400mg) of oral morphine and nothing... nothing comes close to pods. not. even. close.
 
Opium tea is not bullshit at all, and a pound of seeds won't ever match 200mg of oxy.
Hell, a pound of my usual seeds is similar to 50mg - whether they are washed to hell or not, I don't really know.

Strongest batch I ever made, (purple Afgani' pods')... I let it sit on top of fridge' in a big metal pan w/ tight fitting lid in acidic (juice of 2 lemons) water overnight...temperature was average of 95 degrees (just from the heat of the fridge' motor)
I made a liter w/ 12 pods' (use the coffee mill & grind em' to dust !) & 12 ounces would easily F' up the most tolerant morphine & diamorphone fans for a good 12 hours.

Edit: I started reading about pesticides used on the fields a couple years ago & now worry a little about how much DDT etc... I ingested.
