Poppy tea.. How many poppy seeds should onei use and how much should one consume?

[PillPoppinAnimal1]

Well I actually just got done making some by using about 3/4 to 1 full pound of poppy seeds and filled a 64 ounce bottle up half way with warm water.. It has been sitting for about an hour or two so it is good to go.. The water is a very dark yellow color, close to "light brown"

Does anyone know if I used a good dosage of seeds compared to about 32 of water?

One has a high tolerance, how much should one drink to get a good strong buzz?

AAAnd one last thing, what do you guys think of this method, has it worked well for anyone?



By the way, I found the seeds at a local grocery store by my house and they were "Blue poppy seeds".. they look like a big mixture of black and dark blue seeds..

Dosage completely depends on the seeds, which vary greatly from batch to batch. All you can really do is start low and titrate up if needed. Normally what people do is vigorously shake the seeds in water for a minute or 2, then pour off the water, then do a wash by repeating the same thing if you like. If you let them sit for long the liquid including your alkaloids will soak into the seeds and you will lose some of it.

Do a search of Bluelight, there are lots of threads on poppy seed tea.

Thank for the info, one just drank about 20 ounces.. We'll see what happens here shortly. I think these seeds are actually really good, because one drank 20 ounces of the tea right before I posted this thread, an already feeling it for sure. %) one drank it on an empty stomach.

 

[Wash]

Don't let the seeds sit, it lets the seeds release their oils and makes it taste horribly, and i've found the longer it sits the less potent it is. I'm not sure if when they sit they reabsorb the morphine or what, but it's always been less potent in my experience. My usual method is using 300-500g and shaking it roughly for about 5minutes, then draining. Last times I've been using white grapefruit juice for the wash, as it makes it taste better and it feels the same as a water+lemon juice wash.

As always, be careful with the tea, each batch is not the same. The amount of alkaloids on the seeds isnt uniform, one batch may be alot stronger than another. This stuff can be dangerous, so try and exercise caution.

Have you had good experiences with trying this out? Ive always been told by a few friends that its amazing.

good informational post. thank you.. I am going to go make the second "wash" right now and see how dark that one turns out.. I will try out your method of shaking it for 5 mins. I shook it up pretty good on the first batch, but for only like a minute at the most.
