All I can say is DAMN. I have full respect of poppy seed tea as of today. Yesterday afternoon and night I had one of the best opiate experiences I have had in years and years.

I went over to visit T for lunch and we decided we were going to brew up some poppy seed tea the following day. We sat around chatting for a while, and his missus decides to leave. So we went to the lounge and started to watch a DVD. About five minutes into the movie I was like "Wanna go buy some poppy seeds?" T was like "Lets go."
So that was that.
We went to the supermarket and found the jars of seeds we normally get. their brand name is the same as a chain of movie cinemas in Australia ;)
T pointed out that it was much cheaper buying the 100g bags than the 240g jars, so we bought 7 100g bags and 1 litre of pineaple juice. My brother had told me that pineapple juice was way nicer and T and myself just could'nt face drinking lemon juice again so we decided to give it a go.
We get to the checkout and the laser lady was like "That's alot of seeds, you boys doing some baking?" T got paranoid and started to waffle on about what he was cooking and I just laughed.
She was definately suss, and gave us a knowing grin when we left. Hence we wont be shopping from there for a while as we don't wanna ruin a good thing.
Anywho we get back to T's house and we decide how we're going to do this.
We throw all 7 packets (700g) of seed into one big mixing bowl add about 250ml of pineapple juice and one small glass of hot tap water.
We stir it for a while and then T comes up with a brilliant idea *ding* *insert light bulb here*
T suggests that we throw the mix into the mixer.
This was pure genius.
So we change the mixer blade thingies to these dough ones, kinda long curly thin things and we set it to a slow setting with the bowl spinning slowly. We mixed it for about 10 minutes and we added around a further 250ml of pineaple juice.
We decide that we're gunna just let it go for a further 10 mins on a much higher setting.
Ten minutes pass and we find suitable materials to strain the gunk through.
I think it was a tea towel ripped in half, I can't quite remember.
We start to strain this stuff into another bowl. Damn! This stuff is so thick and gunky compared to the other batches we have made, even more so than his last effort. I stuck a little bit onto my tongue and it kinda went numbish, I thought I was losing it so T tried it as well and noted a slightly numbed tongue.
By the time we strained this evil brown looking sludge we ended up with about 500mls of it.
We dived it into two lots. I got my half put into a water bottle for takeaway, and he had his in a glass ready to drink with some freshly made pumpkin bread.
T slammed his down and I decided to have a few small sips. Now I must stress that these were really small sips, not mouthfuls or anything just small sips.
We get back to watching the movie again.
About 20 minutes into it I started to feel a buzz! This should'nt happen to me as I only had a few sips, but it has....I am quite taken by suprise by this and I look over towards my mate and he's just mashed hahahaha
Yet again our eyes go bright red and his were absoluetly pinned too!
So I decide to leave coz I had a few things I had to do.
I get home and I thought to myself that I should have a little bit more to make the evening cruisey.
So I drink half.
Now at this point in my story I must inform you people that I have recently moved back into my mums house after a break up from a long term relationship. It's not really the ideal place to take drugs as such but I thought I'd be allright.
Where was I? Oh yeah, I drink half of what I had.
Whoops.....
Welcome to pinned city.
I was so fucked! My nose was itchy, my legs were itchy, my whole body was itchy! My eyes were beaming like the friggin moon and half closed. My ears went all weird and blocked like I had a good shot of smack. But I also had the munchies LOL
I ate some dinner, it tasted wicked. My tummy was a bit narky, but it was nothing I could'nt handle. That's one thing I like about this high, it seems much more organic in it's buzz. Like it's definately morphine, but I tend not to be able to stomach food on straight morph, this is a little different in that aspect. Something T also pointed out as well :)
Anywho I had to act "normal" in front of my mother for a few hours, which was hard from the itching and whatnot.
I was fairly dazed at this stage but I did'nt want to try to nod out when my mum was still awake so I watched Tv until she went to bed.
Mum went to bed after about 3 or 4 hours so i was left to my own devices.
Then another bright idea came over me.
Lets drink the rest!
I skolled down the rest of the bitter slurry. I had a bit of a hard time keeping this lot down, once it hit my stomach i could feel my stomach cramp and I got a bit queasy.
I managed to hold it in and I jumped onto my computer to do a bit of chatting and surfing.
Now about 20 minutes after I drank it there seems to be a bit of a blur.
A friend online said I helped her fix a spyware issue and also helped her remove a virus. I don't actually remember doing this. I do remember chatting away and nodding off infront of the keyboard. One moment I was tying, the next moment I was snowboarding, something I have never done before, but I was getting right into it LOL
Then I came too all blurry eyed and decided to goto bed.

This is where the fun began.

I am on a boat in a really darkened seascape. Waves are crashing all around and there is alot of sea spray as well. The sky is grey and the water is grey, but it is'nt night time. It actually reminds me of twilight, but I don't know if it is. It's very cold here, I think I see some ice floating in the waters. I look ahead and I see a whale. It looks like a giant sperm whale and it's crashing through the waters in slow motion.
I'm now on the whales back. The water is really cold but I feel safe on its back and it's giving off heat that seems to be counteracting the cold water.
We move silently through the water, I feel at one with the animal. We are swimming towards a pod of whales. But for some reason I am starting to feel a sense of dread. I'm not sure whats wrong with them. All of a sudden I am on the back of another whale. It's icey cold, I can see ice in the water and it's swimming away from my safety quickly. I don't know what my saftey is, but I know this whale is taking me away from it and I start to get scared. Everything is getting darker and I freak out and wake up itchy.

I go back to vapourspace. I am watching the patterns inside my eyes. They remind me of umbrellas spinning inside each other, in some weird pulse. I become transfixed by these patterns and an image starts to imerge. It's a pigeon. It starts doing this strange little dance and at the end of every loop it shakes it's tail feathers so they fan out like a peacock. I have realised that the umbrella paterns are infact it's tail feathers and I am looking at the NBC peacock logo.

I don't remember anything after that. I remember waking up alot through out the night having to scratch myself but I don't recall any other nods.
I'm very amused by the NBC logo, I have no idea when I last saw it as I am in Australia LOL

All up I had a fucking amazing time this go round. I have had less effects from shooting heroin in the past so I am very impressed with what 350g of seed can do. Next time I shall have it all in one dose instead of staggering it out.

Sorry this was so long. Also I'd like to appologise as I know my trip reports are'nt very good, I hope this one was a bit more descriptive :)
 
hmmm... every time i hear a positive experience with poppy seed tea, it makes me wanna go do it again. my last experience was with a pound (500 mg or seeds more or less) soaked for an hour and stirred occasionally, and i got a pleasant buzz, but nothing like the flooring you described. i wonder if you used grapefruit juice as the mixing ingredient if it would act as a catalyst for the BBB... its worked for me in the past with hydrocodones.

k, i gotta make some poppy seed tea again soon. i just gotta get this bad ass poppy tea experience. each time i do it its a little closer. this time i'll stir that shit contantly, hell i might let it soak all day, let it sit in the sun, make lipton poppy sun tea ;)
 
I think the secret of our success this time was to use the electric mixer. It's the only thing I can think of, plus using as little liquid as possible, made it more concentrate :)
 
I'm going to try this over the weekend... too many good reports coming out for me to resist :)
 
The strength will vary from brand of seed to even batch of seed. Some is very strong, my brother has a batch atm that is super strong compared to the last lots he's been getting. These were a new batch as well, so maybe they had a higher concentration of morph in them. Also when ya buying them, have a look to see if the seeds have stem and bits of pod in them, you'll get a better high if it has more plant material floating around the seeds ;)
Good luck guys!
 
Awesome report! I'm definately going to see what I can find for poppy seeds in my area. I'll be surpised if I can find anything good here in the U.S. I imagine most of the seeds you buy are washed with no resin on them :(
 
yeah, and here you either have to buy em by the 2.2 oz jar which is like 5 bucks a jar or fill a baggie with em at Whole Foods or Central Market... which is hella cheap but not as inconspicuous as getting all your poppies at several different locations. and who knows what the quality is :\
 
I love hearing people describe the hallucinogenic effects of Opiates. The only Opiates that have done this to me are Codeine, Morphine, Opium itself, and Poppy seed/pod tea. The dreams are truely beautiful, and so is the feeling of laying there in between being awake and asleep. You can stay in that depth of "sleep" all night long, and just enjoy the high just as much, if not more than you would if you were up doing things. Some of my friends have explained to me that they thought it was a waste of a buzz to go to bed on Opiates. I feel completely different.
 
That was a pretty good report, thanks for sharing. Quite fantastic what seed or pod tea can do when you lie awake at night with all stimuli at a minimum, huh? I will give you a tip or two to those that this has not quite worked for. You do not really have to search for the 'bulk' seed bins, you just need unwashed seeds, and enough. I have has better times with a pound or two of bottled seeds then bulk ones. Think discount stores. And like the poster said, look for ones with bits of pods in them, usually a tell-tale sign of them being good.

People swear by many methods, but I have found a simple soak with a few good stirs here and there during a 10 minute time period, using just boiled water. is the key. The theory the any acid (lemon, lime, vinegar), that one can buy from the store helping extraction in any way is simply false. You are washing stuff off seeds, not taking anything out of them. Of course seeds like these that are good for tea are good for growing. And if you are paranoid of getting so much seed, just look up some recipes that require lots of poppy seeds, and put your mind at ease, or say you Grandmother is in town, and she makes these great poppy seed rolls 8) Most importantly, start low, seeds can be plenty powerful to the non-tolerant or low-tolerance user. I know of a guy that used to get great seeds, and he only used 1/4 of a pound for a decent glow.
Be safe, and have fun!
 
just a quick update: my friend and I went halves in 1.2Kg of seed tea and it was about 5x as strong as that trip report. LOL

I think gettting unwashed seeds would be next to impossible. All the ones I have come across are washed, but some are washed better than others.
 
rm1x, you said you used a mixer to make that last batch. is that like an egg beater, or a margarita mixer, or a mixing bowl with a bread kneader type thing? i'm imagining one of those things that turns slowly in a bowl for like mixing butter and sugar together to bake with.

edit: nevermind, i went back and read your post more closely

Yeah I think it was one of the bread mixers, it had funny curly mixing wands and has a rotating bowl on it :)
 
I'll be trying this tomorrow. Question...wasn't the brew real oily? Sometimes when I make pod tea, a few seeds wind up in the brew and I can then see oil droplets on the top.
 
Yeah there was mate, we use the stuff floating in the top as an indication that it's ready :) It's a really cloudy oil.
 
will this work w/ normal poppy seeds you buy at your local supermarket (in the U.S.)?
 
All the seeds I have bought have been from the supermarket, I can't see why the american ones would be any different :)
 
Cause america makes everything illegal, and holds on a vice-grip on the stuff that ain't. :p

I've never heard of poppyseed tea as being any good before, but I certainly want to try it out now!

I'll be searching for methods for the next hour or two, I can tell you that much.
 
I normally use a coffee grinder when they are dry, and it produces a nice fine substance to work with.

On the note of poppy seeds, I have recently come across 400g bags of WHITE poppy seeds. Now I looked around the web and haven't found much on them, are they maybe just bleached? Any info would be great, they are priced the same as the regular greyish poppy seeds and labeled just the same as well.
 
i'm gonna try this again today. i looked through my cabinet and actually found two old containers of poppy seeds, about 140 grams in all, but they're pretty old, as in several years. i wonder if that will affect the potency? i have to drive about 30 miles to get to central market to buy em in bulk, they're cheaper but the regular supermarket is closer... but the seeds are hella expensive compared to central market, so i'm thinking about just using these old seeds so i don't have to buy as much.

i'll find out anyway ;)
