Well just got in an order of pods. Went with the 'extra large' this time.

I'm pretty impressed with how large they are, being about the size of a tennis ball .

Note: a rather archaic scale was used for weight, as the good digi is at the office right now..

3 pods were picked out or the bunch.
Crowns and stems removed.
Seeds were left in.

Total weight of pods: 12 grams (+/- 5grams)

They were then crushed by hand, pretty well, to a bunch a dime sized or smaller pieces.

Grounds were then put in to a coffee cup.

Water was boiled.

Some lemon juice was squeezed on the grounds, then water was added to fill the cup.

Lid was placed on cup, but the contents were stirred every couple of minutes for about ten minutes.

5:30pm to 7:20pm: the cup of water and grounds were let to soak.

After a stir, the grounds were filtered out with a peice of t-shirt.

7:25pm-7:30pm: The thick bitterish liquid is gulped down.

7:40pm: Subtle warming feeling felt through out body. Muscles feel to relaxing. Eye response seems slowed. Going to go smoke a cig outside now.......

7:56pm: Warming feeling slightly stronger. Muscles very relaxed feeling now, very notably in arms and legs at joints......... Head is a litte more euphoric/swimmy feeling also.....Think I will lay down and watch some TV and see if this is it or not.

8:25pm: Feeling pretty damn good. Not as strong as I hoped for, but nice. This would be a good dose to drink at. In comparison, it feels like 15mg or so of hydrocodone.

Dont expect to get much more from this dose.

Next time around the pods will be ground with a coffee grinder. Also a proper weight will be taken with an accurate scale.

All in all I cant say im dissapointed in this batch :D

the best method I found for this was to chop the pods to a FINE powder, the finer the better, you want powder. Take the seeds out they just make it gross, save them all in a dish till you have a pound or so. Put the powder in a pot and add a cup or so of water. Simmer for 30mins, keep just below a boil. Strain and keep the mush and save the liquid in a cup. simmer again for 20 mins, combine the liquids throw out the mush. let the water simmer away until you have a tiny shot, or one gulp. keep all the stems and knobs to make a batch when the pods are gone. 7 knobs = about one pod.

This procedure with 3 pods that big should get you fucked up, i dont know your tolerance though. I actually wanted to save money, so I started grinding to a fine powder and eating the powder, and you can cut your dose in half!
 
I have a slight natural opiate tolerance, and 25mg - 30mg of hydro or oxy is a normal dose for 'standard' effects for me. (no serious nodding at that dose)

Also, worth noting, im pretty heavy set at 220 pounds.

This was pretty much just a light hearted experiment with the current batch to get a feel for the potency of these larger pods.

Next time around, in addition to grinding to a fine dust and getting a more accurate weight, I will most likely mix 10 grams of powder with some apple sauce and just gulp that down.

On the other hand, pod putty, or some other form of extraction may be fun to try with the pods.......
 
Also, sorry about the title.

I tried to edit it, but the changes dont seem to show on the forum, but they show with the post open...?

Im sure thats true, but eating straight powder always seems to cause nausea, indigestion, vomiting, etc.
 
Thats because you must decrease the amount of powder you eat, your normal dose is too much, and I have never experienced anymore bad side effects from eating the powder as any other normal dose of opiates.
