- Opiated Thai Sticks: Myth or Truth? -

I wasn't there. I do know an old Deadhead tour head, who unprompted, mentioned dealing Thai Stick in WA state that had been laced and caused withdraws when it ran out. The story was about the bud being dipped into the water left over from heroin manufacture, not in the opium itself. Think about it. You are making massive amounts of heroin, which only uses one alkaloid, morphine. Yet you have this waste water left over, with a cocktail of other opiate alkaloids being present, chiefly codeine. Why would you not utilize this post consumer waste product? So the argument that it must not have been done due to cost seems extremely weak.

I can comment on a slightly related episode, that I experienced: Back in the late 90's, some friends were at the hospital, due to another friend breaking his arm. Some nurse failed to secure an ampule of morphine, which somehow ended up in one of my friend's pockets... So they being stoners, not junkies, decided to lace it heavily onto lower quality commercial weed. My friend and I picked up a 1/4oz for $20. We smoked some, and being teenagers at the time, were outside via a downstairs window and while walking back, to go inside, my friend simply fell and rolled down a hill, smacking into a fence. After retrieving him and attempting reentry the 2nd time, he somehow fell and about cracked his head open on the foundation, only to get up completely unaware of what just happened. Once inside, while laying down, I remember getting pronounced CEV's until oblivion overtook me. The next day, we smoked more out in the woods, to the effect of nodding out on the forest floor for the next 4-5 hours. Fun times.

yep your right ,
im pretty sure no new information can come ,
and it is a bit annoying when folks see the title of a thread ,
then comment without bothering to see what comments have already been made ,
thereby repeating the same shit over and over ...
so i think we can wrap this one up ...

With the legalisation in Thailand and more Thai members joining our forum, I think it might be a good idea to unlock this thread and get hopefully some more inside information from our Thai members.

Please note keep it civil in this thread or this thread might get locked again.

I remember smoking opium out of a light bulb with a straw. Doesn't it have to be vaporized? I thought incineration would destroy it

The ones who were around in the production of that would have to be in their late 60s or well into their 70s over now.

I'm in my early 70's and will testify that the opium laced thai sticks were the bomb...much of what I smoked was smuggled in by friends that were fighting in Nam...a tiny bamboo stick held it together and was tied with a bamboo strips...they were darker that normal weed and had a white ghostly tint to it...you never smoked a whole stick but we tried...ended up in a dreamy fucked up state of mind for the night and into the next morning...the good old days

Will have to transplant them a bit later when they grow a bit and pluck some of them away

Where the seeds come from? There is always some poppy in mother's garden as she loves the flowers it makes, I have harvested the goo as well on many of them but it is usually low potency, some wild ones had decent levels of alcaloide.
There was a online shop here that sold all kinds of medicinal plants, morning glory, baby woodrose, opium poppies etc. We have a good collection of stuff for a poison garden next summer.

Nice, my mom has a goos collection of deadly plants, I bought her a book about witch's garden since she got most of the dangerous plants in this unholy scripture.
It's not so easy to get really potent poppy seeds in my country. I'll try to look for the website to see if I can get some seeds for years to come.
