Ok so I'll start by saying I'm not into pills, smack, morphine, etc. I'm not into forming a habit that could possibly ruin my life and definitely empty my wallet. What I am interested in is hearing about opium, and seeing if it's something that might be somewhat useful and enjoyable. I'm not really an addictive kind of person, I smoke with some degree of regularity and booze maybe once or twice a month, in addition to a large interest in psychedelics (although it's pretty difficult for me to find anything where I'm at). I don't think I've ever smoked/boozed for 2 days in a row. My question are: 1. How habit-forming is opium? 2. What is its recreational value? I have heard some experiences that make it seem a lot like weed in terms of intensity (read:mild), but also tales of people puking and shit like that, though to be fair, I puked on weed once. I'm emetophobic, so that kind of thing is a big turn-off. 3. Is it a feasible option to grow my own stash? Obviously there are stipulations to that such as I gotta hide it very well and I probably for the sake of not getting caught should keep it small. I'm not planning on selling it. 4. Anything else I should take into consideration before going further into this?
The couple times that I've come across this precious substance, I didn't encounter too much of a habit, but it can give you some gnarly withdrawal effects if you don't break the flow of it into your body for a couple of days. It has GREAT recreational value, however it's not for you if you want to be active and on your feet (obviously). It is amazing to sit around and have a session with your friends, and it isn't surprising the effects are magnified via marijuana. After taking a slow drag of the flowery tasting goop, I get the most amazing feeling when I exhale and fall back. The thing I like about opium is it has these properties I can't quite point my finger to. It's a little more psychoactive than morphine or other pharmaceuticals I've tried, has a cool dreamy effect on me. Growing the poppy seemed to do its own thing, and required very little work (other than pest control and the occasional moistening of the soil). I don't really understand why you'd have to hide opium poppies very well (as if anybody would really put 2 and 2 together) unless you're planning on growing in a silly place like your parents house or something. They are like weeds, and they can spread like wildfire in the years to come. You can get a few different colours of papaver somniferum if you're worried about somebody spotting out the typical RED colour. I hope this is of some help to you, I'm not the most experienced, but I have little patch going myself right now and the seeds were reasonably easy to get (and legal)! Edit: Start off small if you want to avoid nausea. Be happy with the effect you first get, and don't attempt to over do it.
