The trick with extraction is to leave most of the inactive material behind 
If you steep it in a dark closet for 3 days, then filter it, the liquid will hold most of the alkaloids. You can however re-soak the crud with more alcohol for a day, to get more alkaloids out (displacement of the more concentrated tincture) If you do this a third time you will have almost completely extracted a material.
1..Soak for 3 days in the dark 2..Filter, resoak 3..Filter, resoak 4..Filter, combine liquids 5..Welcome to the Shroomery
It is that simple

Okay, now I'm a little confused. I read a few places that I should mix the ground pods (powder) with alcohol, steep it for 2+weeks, stirring or shaking it daily. Are you saying I should only steep it for 3 days and then filter out all the sludge, then steep that sludge with clean alcohol over and over?

Thanks for the tips! One other question: When I'm done and I have a container of laudanum, can I reduce it (a cooking term)? I don't want to have to take a whole shot of grain alcohol to get a dose--does anyone know a good way to evaporate some of the alcohol and get a more potent final mixture? Thanks again.

Im a newbie here and was wondering, without completely wasting 50 Tasmanian pods would a dose for a newbie be 2-3 dried powderized pods make into poppy tea? If so how much should I drink of the tea without drinking too much. Also being with no tolerance would 2-3 dried tasmanian pods do anything at all? Im sure they will after reading this thread through n through but how much of the liquid would I need to drink for 2-3 pods.

I have heard that poppy seeds need to be frozen before they will germinate, has anyone ever heard this?

There is a hillside near my house that had beautiful large trees. I used to love walking up there, but last year they began logging it. I was so disappointed, but after reading this thread, I saw the perfect opportunity to plant some poppies. The logging process has produced large full sun, loose dirt areas. A few days I ago sprinkled about 1/2 once of Turkish giants, and 1/2 once of Colossals up there. 
We will see how it goes.

Falling over means they're not getting enough light. If you're growing indoors and it happens shortly after planting it's a lost cause. Outdoors, while flowering you should be fine.

Giganteum is supposed to produces larger pods. And it is normal for the head of the plant to bend over but they should straighten themselves out. Nothing to worry about if the heads seem to "droop" down.

No, they grow in the middle east where drought in not rare. Mist them while they're seedlings.

In the garden FAQ it says to put seeds in the "crisper dish" I'm assuming "fridge" to break the dormancy cycle. I have them in some plastic bagies, but was wondering if I should close em, or leave them open?
