would a person get more of a yeild from the opium poppie by slicing it and collecting the latex material or choppin it down and drying it out to make tea or some other type of extraction. and Is it posible to grow them out of large clay pots?
I ask these question because last year I just sliced the pods and it seemed to me that it was a lot of work for not that much latex, I found my self just chewing on the pods.
any help would be graet

If you know what you are doing you can get up to an ounce of dry latex from on single poppy plant......The pods produce opium many different times each day of the week(from what Ive read)...So,you may slice the pods one hour and collect the raw opium and then slice them again and get more opium and you may keep doing this until the plant quits producing opium.Search for "How to obtain mass amounts of opium from the poppy plant" on Yahoo or some search engine.......I remember someone on here telling about a book,wrote by a chinese guy,on how to collect over an ounce or so of dried opium latex from one plant! Peace PF~

an ounce, thats a good chunk of opium to come out of one pod, but I belive it. I was getting off more by chewin on them rather than smoking the latex.

Not one Pod, one plant! Well I guess, since its seems impossible to get an ounce from one pod

Well, it all depends on wich strain you grow, especially if you live in Sweden - all the strains sold here are super week. Even hen and chicks are not even worth growing if bought in Sweden stores.
But i you grow really strong strains like the GMO Tasmanian or strain x247a you increase the chances of a big harvest.
I dont believe you can get 28 grams from one single plant.. That must be one hell of a plant!
And you cant just wait a couple of hours, you need to wait a day at least before you slize the pod again and after the third time you dont get much more out of it..
I can believe you might get 1 ounce (28 grams) if making pod-putty maybe, but not by slizing one plant only..

Really depends on the strain and your climate. A big, six foot tall giganteum plant with a mandarin sized pod can give you 0.4g-1.0g latex, smaller plants and pods yield less, with anything less than a ping-pong ball in size not being worth lancing.
Raw opium is infinitely superior to putty processed from dried plants (poppy straw). But it's way more work, and it's way more dangerous in terms of legality. I haven't bothered to make O in a long time, I usually just grind up the straw and use it to brew tea now and then. It keeps well that way and the nastiness of the tea prevents me from over-using it. Having a ton of raw O is a bit dangerous in terms of getting the yen.
