These seeds were labelled as P. Somiferium, but they look very different to me. In the first picture you can see the plants in question behind regular P. Somniferium var. giganthemum. These plants have thinner smaller leaves, are darker green, and are fuzzier. Does anybody know what type of poppies these are and if they are useful? There are many pods coming in, but none have flowered yet.
P.S., What is the deal with smoking opium? Is this just an urban legend? Would one have to consume massive amounts to get anything more than placebo? Does it only work with poppies grown in Afghanistan? Tea does it every time for me, but I don't know what the deal with smoking is. It smells and tastes nice, but I don't see any point to it besides that.
