from what i've read online it seems like people say you'd need a shitload of plants to get any significant amount of opium from. but then again it seems like 2000s era bluelighters were just culty and cunty and propagated a lot of false shit to the current day.
If you're a connoisseur rather than a fiend (it won't take much), if a fiend, you'll need several acres a year worth of poppies. But they grow quite fast if you know what you're doing. I coated sour diesel with homegrown opium, dried it out. The bud lasted easily 10 times as long as normal. It was ridiculously good. I had a large pyrex dish full of opium, or 'poppy straw concentrate' actually. It was potent enough to be used the way someone would smoke raw, freshly harvested opium from scorring the pods.
Industrially they smash up the whole plant because there's morphine and such in every part. It's retarded to waste the rest of the plant if you're going for bulk morphine, or just trying to maximize the morphine you're getting from the plants you have access to.
If you can't make 100 fully grown plants last, you have a problem. That is a lot of morphine, if you're using the whole plant.
I laid in bed for days blissed out from a handful of plants, literally a handful grown under compact fluorescents and a 70 watt hps.
Didn't even get full sized. Would've stayed like that for months, because I ended up with a large pyrex dish of potent, condensed extract after using the whole plants crushed up. Putting them in a blender is bad in my opinion cause you'll pull too much of the chlorophyll and fats and waxes that way. Crushing them up fairly good works best I think. But if a blender must be used, it should only be done for a second or two. Just enough to chop them up.
If a person is a smoker rather than injecting it, it would probably be nice to take a 100 or more plants, do a whole plant water extraction, and take half of that and turn it into a smokable salt like morphine hydrochloride. I dunno which salt is better for smoking, it seems there's not a lot of literature on the subject. But that would be a dangerously potent smokable mix, comparable to heroin, but without the shitty acetic acid taste.
EDIT: mix the purified maybe slightly off-white or tan crystals, mix into raw opium or whole plant extract, till no more can be mixed in. It'll only take a tiny amount to get super high smoking this, so it could be quite dangerous.
