What is a rough estimate for the percentage of opiate in all parts of the poppy?

I've never seen the specific numbers you're asking for but it's the outer flesh of the flower pods when mature and ripe that have the majority of it. Fresh healthy leaves lower on the plant have a fair bit earlier in the plants' maturing process and can even bleed latex when cut or broken. It travels through the stem also. Seeds in bulkier amounts have been used but I always just kept those for baking and sprouting. Roots even have some and during the following spring I'd smell opium in the soil I was disturbing due to leftover roots. I grew poppy patches for 17 years in the garden while living on a farm in northern Maine. I smoked the dried opium latex a couple times back when I was more of a smoker, but it's really the teas and tinctures I've made from the pods that I found more suitable for me and useful.

On the harm reduction side of the subject, please be and remain problem free with your interest in opium. Opiates have been a problem for a lot of people unfortunately. No judgement from me, and it is a useful medicine when we are respectful in our relationship with it.

Not sure,

But general rule of thumb. Don't go over 15 grams of dried poppy pods.

It feels like a fat line of smack.

If you do it regularly you're not gonna feel much, and become quite annoyed and snappy with everything.

Only reason to use opiates is if you break a bone or something like that, even then cannabis is a superior option.

Avoid opiates if you can, they are nasty and dirty compounds with more side effects then benefits.

Best advice I can give is if you aren't treating severe chronic pain to use it on no more than one day per week and leave it at that. Allows one to use and enjoy it sometimes without it becoming habitual. There's nothing intrinsically wrong, bad, or dirty about opium, it's just that having an unhealthy addiction to it is not a winning recipe.

We can recognize that the alkaloids present in poppies can be useful in certain circumstances, but the risks and need for harm reduction often overweight those benefits. You’ve posted about using thebaine-strong poppies in an attempt to get highs, with some success, and also doing so for long enough to experience withdrawal, which leads me to believe that you are in risk of some pretty negative consequences in your life if you continue that path-if that is not already the case.

It seems also that you may have misconstrued the purpose for this site, as it is almost exclusively about all things DMT, which does not include opiates outside of occasional harm reduction conversations. Such as what this has become.

I’m wondering what brings you here and if you have any intersection with DMT in your life, and what brings you here?

Poppies --> Pills --> Heroin --> Fentanyl --> Fentanyl cut with large animal tranqs resistant to Naloxone -- > The Yawning GRAVE. And you wind up taking down others and hurting a lot of other people along the way.

Adults consider scenarios and consequences to their choices before acting.

If you are having problems with pain or with opiate addiction please, please, please get help before it is too late.

Avoid of taking opiates if you don't wanna follow George Floyd

In terms of harm redudction and safety, opiates and other hard drugs talk should be forbidden here same as source talk is
