Smoking - Newbie Here, a few questions please

[StreetProphet]

Hey guy's, I"m new to the forum!A friend of mine has a few questions about harvesting latex. He's scraped all the latex off, now what should he do? Is it ok to try and vaporize it or should he do something else first?he does not have much, only had 3 pods. This is his first time and will be his first experience with O. Please any and all suggestions will help!

there is a lot of info on this in the post marked "FLAKE OPIUM" it says "Guide to Flake Opium" or something like that. There you will find everything you need to go from pod to a great, smokeable product.

The latex should be allowed to dry and that's all that is necessary, SWIY should then have a smokable product.

Ah yes that is a good guide, The Improved Guide for "flake - cooked" opium, it looks very informative.

The result of the process sounds yummy!

When it is smoked correctly it should melt and vaporize pretty much the same as H does rather than slightly burn and and sizzle like raw opium. It should leave very little residue when smoked unlike raw opium which turns into a hard little ball once it is expended. This form is also good for eating, dissolving into liquid to drink, making capsules out of, etc etc. . . This is (in SWIM's opinion a little more dangerous because cooked opium is much more potent than poppy pod tea or poppy grounds in equivalent quantity. Smoking is more controlled in his opinion because you can start by smoking a smaller quantity and working your way up.

There's also a neat smoking method in Smoking opium the traditional way - Selfmade water-pipe
