Hi,

I know this has been covered elsewhere, but those threads cover lots of other issues too. I'm confused about a simple thing: posts claiming substantial effects off 1 or 2 pods.

I've recently been enjoying some hens and chickens, much better than the giganteums I was using before. But I find a fair optimum dose is about 80g of dried material, after the seeds have been taken out. I prepare using water at 80 degrees C, with a cafetiere that lets me squeeze the black stuff out of the grounds. I re-soak/squeeze the grounds 5+ times until the liquid's getting pale. I should probably try eating the grounds but tbh the half-life's long enough - a dose on Saturday afternoon's still lingering more than I'd like on Sunday evening with work next day.

Anyway 80g is roughly 20 or so pods (plus all the little chickens :)) Am I just a monstrous pig with my opiates? I'm generally an opiate virgin. During the last 12 weeks I've had 3 consecutive doses with 4 week gaps between. Prior to that, there was a gap of about 4 months following a similar pattern of four doses (125g-ish of giganteums) with 4 week gaps again. Before that, just the odd bit of oxycontin/norm, say 3 times over about two years.

Maybe my source material is no good? It looks fine to me though, and compares pretty favourably with pods I've picked up in Morocco.

Not a single response? What did I do wrong? :(

It's not a question about the variability of pod content - 20 pods is a 900% higher dose than 2 pods. It's not a question about tolerance. Cmon give a guy a break on dosage? I'm only asking...
 
Well, your questions are vague, and from what I gather, are:

  1. Am I a hardhead when it comes to opiates?
  2. Is it possible that my pods are weak?

And the answer to both is "possibly".

We can only speculate, and it is one of the two if you have the procedure down pat, and for that reason I am going to close this thread. PM me with any questions or comments.
