So guys I just got a pair of pliers and went to ivestigate what these big poppies I saw in someones garden really were. Sadly my camera has run out of battery so I can`t post any pics. I went there at 2AM and cut 4 of these big pods off
I looked at pictures of P. Somniferum and the pod seems very round where these pods are a little more conical where they join on the stem. I got my scalpel out and made the shallow incisions on the pods and loads of this milky stuff is coming off the incisions and also where I broke them off (right below the pod, propably a mistake).
Also this stuff has started turning a brown colour, even quicker when I put my desklamp over them. Problem is I can`t score the other sides because I have sap coming out of one side.
These poppies have pretty large pods, quite a big crown, long white hairs on their stems and the brown ring around the stem where the pod starts.
Is this.... Opium?
