I was just thinking, how come people pay so much for opium, morphine, codeine and H? If growing poppies is as easy as i think it is then why dont people grow their own opium poppies and use that opium or extract morhine instead of paying for it
because its time consuming and labor intensive. also most people do not have the knowledge or will to grow a flower, extract the morphine, and convert it into heroion
Opium poppies require specific temperature extremes in order to thrive. Thus, it is nearly impossible to grow them indoors. And, unless you live on a 5 acre plot, you will have trouble concealing your opium garden outdoors. The penalties for growing opium is steeper than the penalty for buying a few OC's off of the street. You will almost always be lumped into the category of a distributor.
I considered this over the summer. I can't lie... Maybe next year I might give it a shot I don't know. But like they said the acual process of converting it would be hell. Unless you know the exact process with chemicals and their reactions. But I know you CAN just cut them and get the goo out for Opium.
Its a rewarding experience when you plant 10000's seeds and only get 15 to grow.. Why you think they have so many seeds to begin with. Very very delicate ..
