I do not believe that Opium Based Hashish has ever been a widely produced or distributed substance.
There are just too many arguments against it ever existing. Despite the many nostalgic remembrances
of people who firmly believe that they once had some.
However, just because it never really existed doesn't mean it isn't a possible to be produced.
Home Made OPIUM
Anyone who has ever seen the type of home made opium that is made in the West, knows that it is a very syrupy and sticky material.
Too wet to smoke like hashish, far too loose and sticky to handle without it becoming attached to every finger.
It would be difficult to handle BHO with ones fingers, likewise, the same would apply to home made opium
(which is often called, especially in articles that predate WW1, Syrup of Poppy).
Every year I collect a few shopping bags of large, bulbous poppy heads
and boil them down into a substance that varies from a thick, rich syrup
to a pliable and non uniformed hashish type consistency.
From sticky, tar like moist to powdery, crumbling and dry -
these lumps of HMO are squeezed into the circular plastic tubes that used to contain camera films
and a tiny piece, rolled between finger and thumb, is pulled away from the lump
and eaten with a warm drink, to bring a deeply relaxing and detached sensation.
Up to now it has been impossible to smoke it (the wetness of the substance needing far too much heat to burn
and the amount of smoke being similar to a car tyre burning).
Due to the emergence of the vaporiser I believe that tinkering with the consistency of the HMO
could quickly result in a substance that would be excellent for 'dabs'.
Furthermore I also believe that finding a MJ concentrate that could be blended with the HMO
would also be achievable.
A combination of hmo (cooked only so long as to leave it with an oil like consistency)
and bho could make dabs that are amazing!
And, imo, be the first real OPIUM BASED HASH.
I also think that a drier HMO could be blended with a type of home made Hash
to produce a opium based hash that could be smoked without a vape.
Opinions please
