Hi everybody. I have a quick question. I wanted to try some poppy tea and have been looking into buying some Papaver somniferum. The problem is that their are so many strands of Papaver somniferum that i dont know which to go with. Their is turkish, spanish, persian and so on like giganteum. So can anyone help me with what to pick? Or does it even matter what i would pick? would they all do the same?

Persian Whites grow the largest therefore have the largest yield of active chemicals. Have a nice trip.

So is it okay to just use the seeds or try to find the entire pods? I am also wondering some things about Poppy, I posted in the (OD) forum earlier about it but did not get much feedback, maybe you could help? Not sure how to post the link to the other post yet, still trying to figure things out. I appreciate any help (if you can find my post)!

Do you mean this thread? Poppy Pods in 2013

You can make a "tea" out of either poppy seeds or poppy pods. If you get seeds you would want to find unwashed seeds.

yeah i doubt growing your own poppies is going to give you a substantial amount of opiates to work with. If you're seed washing buy in bulk, try to get dark black seeds, and hope for the best. Go for the ones that smell the strongest. Other than that, there's no way to tell until you try them.
