Opioids Poppy pod tea - disappointed

[johnnythunder]

Hi. This is my first post on here. After doing a ton of reading for a few weeks I finally bought some dried poppy heads and made some tea. The pods are large pods from a known vendor. I powdered them with a coffee grinder. I made tea now on 2 occasions with little effect. I have been using a cafetiere with hot but not boiling water and lemon juice. The first time I used 5g. I made this with enough water for 2 cups and drank it over an hour. I took a Hydoxyine with it to combat expected itch. I'm fairly sure I felt the effects of the antihistamine more than the tea.

I have absolutely no opiate tolerance whatsoever but drink excessively and smoke pot often.

The second time I tried 7g using the same procedure. I felt nothing after an hour so took another 2g. I My legs feel a little heavy and I feel tired but that's about it.

One thing worth mentioning is that the tea is a straw color and not black like iv seen in tutorials, nor was it particularly bitter or nasty tasting. It just tasted of straw. I know the pods are the right ones as they had some small specs of opium on the pods which I collected off several pods with a pen knife and vaporized. The smell was exactly as Iv seen it descried and I got some effects from the vapor. Not enough to make me high but enough to tell it was the real deal.

Am I dosing way too low for the tea? Should I try 10g+ next time to start?

continuous heat is better (ie simmer for 10-15 minutes in a small pan on the stove and stir). Your tea should not be black but still fairly dark brown so the next step would be to increase your dosage. I commend you for your responsible dosing but is it really necessary to open a thread asking should I use more the effects are too weak?

Pod tea comes on slow especially if you don't recognize the effects don't redose after an hour.

Thanks a lot. I think the key here could definitely be to simmer with continuous heat as I have just been using the poppy pod powder like I would coffee in my cafetiere. I realized that the tea looked way to light compared to what Iv seen on the net. The post was not really to 'ask should I use more the effects are too weak'. If the technique was wrong then adding more could have just been a waste and not achieved anything. I will maintain the heat in a pan next time before adding to the cafetiere.

Thanks very much for your input!

Ok glad to be of service there is an even less wasteful method of dosing which consists of simply ingesting the grounds/powder , you will need half as much as when you are preparing tea and the buzz will last much longer welll over 12 hours. However this method has a very slow comeup and you can't simply empty your gastric content in case you overdose so I don't particularly recommend it.

hmm scraping the opium specks off to vape, what a good idea. When you refer to opium specks do you mean the black stains on the pods' surface ?

I do mean these yes. It inst very productive though as the amount of opium actually on the surface varies a lot. I just did it to see if it would vape and what it melted and smelt like. If you have a lot of pods and a lot of time to carefully scrape it off each pod with the tip of a sharp knife it would work, its definitely specs of opium on the pods I had.

I made tea about 5 days ago and haven't had a chance yet to drink it. It has unfortunately not been refrigerated (I live in shared accommodation) however it has not been direct sun light and has been sat in my cafetiere with the lid closed.

Will this batch be ok still to drink? Any reason why not from a safety point of view?

Thank you.
