I have never heard that either P. Somniferum or Giganteum is edible by

Well, it's a stretch but the original poster did seem to want to
consume the product, in some way or other.
As for P. somniferum, we did manage to swing that around to
harvesting poppy seeds.

I find it interesting that he said that the poppies were not edible. ;-)
What do they use for poppy seed rolls? Growing them for seeds is indeed
on topic.
