Papaver somniferum var. giganteum (a giant version of the opium poppy plant)

(click for larger)

(click for larger)

Quick recipe for a strong opium based drink:

Step 1 Choose number of poppy pods per person. Between 1 and 3 for new drinkers, 2-5 for experienced, and 5+ for opiate addicts.
            Too much makes you sick and does not increase the enjoyment.
Step 2 Break apart pods and pour out seeds for use in cooking or growing. Crush pods and grind or chop into fine pieces (coffee grinder).
Step 3 Using 1 cup water for every 3-5 pods used, boil pods briefly or pour boiling water over poppy mash. Let cool 5-10 minutes until drinkable.
Step 4 Filter through wire mesh strainer or other filter. Press the pulp to expel as much water as possible. Save the pulp for a second extraction.
Step 5 Add other tea flavors as desired. Drink slowly. You can do a second extraction using 2/3 as much water as before.

It feels good to be running from the devil
Another breath and I'm up another level
It feels good to be up above the clouds
It feels good for the first time in a long time now

You don’t NEED Papaver somniferum var. giganteum, just Papaver somniferum BTW

Just have these cause they were interesting. When using giganteum use less poppies per person.

there’er aren’t weight specific dosages for this are there? as pods seems to just be a huge mess of a way to measure anything. to variable.

A few patches in a garden is fine. Many people have little personal plots.

Burt here in NorCal if the cops spot any large plantings of them they will destroy them like cannabis.

So is it illegal to grow around the house. I thought it was, but I guess if you have 200 or so or 100, cops are going to get ya!

I don’t know for sure

:smokin

So basically illegal but its possible to get away with it. Im not going to bother although i had one pop up in my yard last year and it flowered. Pretty sad cant grow a bunch of stupid flowers. Pretty funny  when i look like a guy who just got out of prison and i just want to grow flowers LOL

Yes, it works, but she is a vindictive bitch.  I would not do this often because you will quickly find yourself wanting to do it more and more and more…  Then needing to do it, more and more…

That being said, opium is not as addicting as, say heroin, but it is definitely a very real physical and psychological addiction hazard here folks.
