[The Seeds]
I got six lbs of seeds from a wholesaler for twenty-eight dollars. These seeds do not seem to be washed very well as there are a large number of poppy fragments.

[Previous Failure]
The previous six or so times I made this, I used scalding hot water. The effects I got were weak or placebo. Other than PST, I have never used opiates.

[This Time]
I poured maybe three-fifths of a lb of seeds into a two-liter bottle and added water. I shook the seeds for a while and loosened the cap, straining the yellow juice into a larger jug.

Being quite skeptical but wary, I drank the tea slowly over a forty-five minute period.

I started to feel a shift in perception around the time I finished the twenty or so ounces of liquid. The room seemed to get brighter and I felt warm all over. A contentedness started to wash over my entire body and my mood got very bright. Before this experience, I was very awake after drinking a large mug of coffee. After all that poppy tea, I was dreamy-feeling and just wanted to sleep.

I played a computer game and then after a while did not want to play anymore. I didn't feel like chatting with anyone either. Anything other than staring straight ahead seemed pointless and took away from the experience.

[The Comedown]
After all the euphoric effects wore off (four hours) I began to feel anger. This happened after all the times I drank poppy tea, regardless of the good effects. I'm not sure if I want more. All I know is the store is only two miles away.

Nice report,
Poppy seed tea does work and poeple who say it doesnt havent made it properly :)
 
I've been using it here and there recently. I find it works best with cool/cold water, no juice or anything and definitely not hot water. You need to shake it vigorously for about 1 minute... any more than that and the seeds will start reabsorbing some of the water and morphine/other alkaloids. Hot water will also cause the seeds to absorb water.

It most definitely works... it can be quite strong, even overwhelming, if you use enough. Different batches of seeds will be different strengths, so it can be pretty dangerous.
 
Seeds found at whole foods gave me nothing but slight sedation. But this report gives me hope, as I thought the 'good' seeds had just about disappeared by 2005. Is this like a "wholesale gourmet" supplier? or a stricly seeds supplier or what? (heh, good store name, "STRICTLY SEEDS OF THE POPPY VARIETY")
 
^ The store in question is a bakery wholesaler. They sell large quantities of various products (baking pans, flour, seeds). These seeds are actually their store brand. They just can't be washed very well due to the errant pieces of poppy in there.

And yes, it was overwhelming. It was my first real opiate experience and I got nervous as the euphoria hit...I need to go buy more seeds, but the round trip walk is around 1.5 hours.
 
i would love to be able to get high on poppy seeds but i think my tolerance is too high...pods maybe....but i dont think the seeds would do it.

if you like pst, you would probably really like codiene.

Whole Foods seeds are evidently washed because I have not gotten anything from them either.

Let's not get into source discussion however... even for things like this it's not allowed.

Poppy seed tea contains codeine and morphine... I believe the primary alkaloid affecting you with it is morphine, not codeine. It basically is the same as pods because the alkaloids come from the bits of pod left over, except the pods are of course much stronger.

In my case, 6 pounds for 28 dollars isn't bad. I'm going to buy another bottle tomorrow morning. These are really high quality (by our standards) because there is a lot of poppy straw stuck to the sides of the container and mixed in with the seeds. These are pretty much no-name seeds, I can't find a damn thing about them.
 
No, 6 pounds for $28 is great... I have yet to find a bulk source for them. The best deal I can find on seeds that actually do something is at this chef supply store, where they're $7 for 20 ounces (a little over a pound). I'm not really looking for a cheaper bulk source (although I'd be happy to find one) because I don't want to be tempted to start drinking lots of poppy seed tea.
 
I just bought more today, and the amount of poppy straw in these is amazing. I can't believe they'd actually sell these. You'd need to sift out the straw before you used them for cooking. I made a weaker tea with only 150-200 grams of seeds and it is equally as strong.

They also sell 50 pound bags of equal quality seeds for 199 bucks I believe.
 
So how much do you need on average?


I cant get off on it anymore not sure whether this is because they changed the seeds or because of my addiction for 2 years on dope
 
Being an opiate virgin, I need around 100 grams to feel something, 200 to feel good. Past that, I have no idea. That is uncharted territory which I will eventually find.
 
dont get too carried away with it mate.. it is pretty addictive .. I used to love poppy tea but the smell of the seeds and the taste makes me vomit now. Which is a good thing or id be an addict in no time
 
You guys that drink the seed tea use the pods as well, I'm assuming? if they are available to you?

There are a shitload of seeds in poppy pods. Keep saving them and then use them later. Then at least you know it won't ever be a waste of time. Try to spread them out very quickly in a thin layer afterwords, so you don't actually fuck the seeds up or anything. Then after they dry they will still germinate fine for the most part. Then go play johnny poppy seed in the early spring or fall. A couple lbs of seed will grow a shitload of plants.

Why would you say not to use juice? I've always made my PST in lemonade or grapefruit juice and it seems to turn out decent. I'm just curious because if water would work a substantial amount better than I will switch.

Thanks for your advice.
