Right I was wondering if 170 small to medium pod (Definately Opium/ P.Somniferum) for >snip< would be better value then buying 400mg OraMorph for >snip< and a >snip< for between 200mg-400mg MSContin?

So overall which would be better? I have a tolerance and it takes me on average 600-800mg of Morphine orally get a really nice high. I'm on 35mg of meth' daily.

I get high one to two times a week.

So people which would be the cheaper option? Am I overestimating the strength of unwashed pods used for tea?

Thanks,
Gaz

Nobody can tell you in advance how strong your pods are going to be, unfortunately. So that scuppers any direct comparison of cost-effectiveness right away.

I'm not sure if there's an 'average' yield of morphine and codeine per kilo of pods, but then again I'm can't see how helpful it would ultimately be in your situation as it can vary wildly.

That's about it really. Unless somebody else has something to add.

Not really. I think this would be best over in OD actually. So I'll frizzbee it over there :)


Hello OD! This is EADD speaking.

true

There is an average for everything that can be measured like that, and even better a distribution curve. It would be helpful probabilistically. The OP could determine the likelihood of their plan being a plan.

Unfortunately I don't know the average or the curve, but what I do know is I have worked my way through about 20 Papaver Somniferum Giganteum pods (these are very large compared to most) and they have been fairly consistent in strength. With little or no tolerance, two or three is a fairly reliable dose and five or six is overdoing it (hangover next day). I was surprised because I had expected active content to vary hugely, given all I'd read. Sure, it varied, but not so much I cared. Of course, that's just my batch, and it might just be that I had a nicely consistent batch.

But that's all I can say and none of it is directly applicable to the OP's situation...
