What is produced from the white poppies is a thick liquid often called brown tar,this tar contains various chemicals,the primary chemical is an opiate.
The tar is refined and produces the drug Called Opium a powerful addictive narcotic...Further refinement produces a much more potent and addictive form of opium called Heroin.
In most countries, it is illegal to grow poppies without a specific license because they are the source of opium, a controlled substance. It is important to check local laws and regulations before attempting to grow poppies.
The DEA usually does not limit, control, or prohibit the possession of certain animals or plants that contain endogenous, controlled compounds unless they are specifically prepared for use (i.e.- dried, cut, packaged, pulverized, etc). Examples of this are: Psilocybin and Psilocin found in Psilocybe mushrooms, LSA and related amides found in Morning Glories and similar plant species, and 5-methoxy-DMT, 5-OH-DMT (bufotenin), and N,N-DMT, some of which are found in mammals (including humans), plants, toads and certain types of fish. Consequently, preparations used by South American natives like ayahuasca brews and yopo, vilca, and virola snuffs (which contain either DMT and/or all or some of the DMT related compounds mentioned above) are illegal since they are processed for human consumption. Note that the term "processed for human consumption" could apply to merely crushing virola bark into a powder, the rationale being that pulverizing the bark means it is being prepared for insufflation. Conversely, the plant species these snuffs are derived from are not illegal if they are possessed in their natural state. In some cases the DEA has scheduled specific plant species b/c they contain certain alkaloids or terpenoids that are perceived as dangerous. This makes possessing or growing them strictly prohibited, even if one of these plants happen to grow wild on an individual's property. Examples of this are- the Cannabis' species, the Opium Poppy (although certain species like the California Poppy aren't illegal even though they contain similar alkaloids), Iboga, and the Coca plant.
Opium poppies contain compounds used to make drugs like heroin, leading to restrictions on their cultivation in the US to prevent illegal drug production and trafficking. The cultivation of opium poppies for medical use is tightly regulated and limited to licensed growers to control the production and distribution of opiate medications.
The Opium poppy plant.
Opium
No. Cannabis is a plant, with THC in it. Opioid's, come from the Poppy plant and synthesized into a narcotic
Herion comes from a group of drugs called narcotic analgestics or opiods. Heroin is made from opium which is harvested from the poppy plant. It is an opiate. Heroin can also be converted into morphine. More information at www.drugaware.com/heroin
The plant that contains many different alkaloids and is the source of opium is the opium poppy, known by its scientific name Papaver somniferum. Opium from this plant is a narcotic drug that contains compounds such as morphine and codeine.
No. It comes from the marijuana plant. The scientific name is cannabis sativa/inidica.
Narcotics can be illegal or legal. It depends on how it's used and if you abuse the drugs a doctor prescribed by taking more than you should. Narcotics come from Opium Poppy plants for illegal and illegal purposes: in medicine, a narcotic is a pain killing drug relieving minor or major pain. Illegally, a narcotic is a drug with sleep-inducing properties and is sold illegally.
Not at all. No. Codeine is an opiate--it comes from the opium poppy. Cocaine comes from the coca plant.
No it does not come from cannabis. It comes from the poppy plant. Just like Opium.
no
NO, it cannot. THC comes from the cannabis plant not any opiate plant, ie poppy seeds. You would test positive for opiates after ingesting poppy seeds, not THC.
Poppy seeds come form England.
