A couple years ago i found a website where some people were discussing how they were growing their own opium poppies. I was surprised to see that it is a plant that is incredibly easy to grow.Grows in crappy soil very fast. Can be grown very far north.
Marijuana has undergone a revolution in the past 20 years or so. It is being grown in peoples homes on a very widespread basis and with the advent of the "grow cabinet" it can be grown in ways that make it very difficult to detect (small grows that supply one or two people year round). The setups i have seen online could completely cut drug users out of the process of buying from the black market.
If this could be done with poppies too ( and i see no reason why it couldn't ) that would mean two drugs that have provided a big chunk of funding to the forces of darkness would not be the cash cow that they have been for many decades.
