  1. Is this a joke? So much wrong information from a doctor. Obviously she just want to sell her products... CBD or hemp tea won't have any effect as the molecules won't be extracted or dissolved in water. The hemp seed oil packaging size is so cute. How much is it? 5ml for 500 baht? Outside Thailand a 250ml bottle sells for 200 Baht. And the THC CBD 1:1 oil? How is it made? Is it FDA approved and with label how much mg of CBD and THC inside? As much as I dislike government authorities but I would say the GPO products are the only trustworthy on the market at the moment. You can get them at authorised hospitals and clinics. Anything else is snake oil
  2. That'll be more than enough. In the past when using lightbulbs (HPS) 600 Watt used to be enough for this area when you can position them with enough distance from the plants for a good light distribution. Mind these particular LEDs have only passive heatsink so it might become quite hot in the grow room.
  3. You're right. I've noticed that stoner shops (that's how I call grow shops like the above) often add 50% on the usual price just because of uninformed customers. Especially true for accessories and fertilizer with fancy names. Go to local AG shop (Raan Kaset) and you'll find it much cheaper.
  4. I would try Lazada. I doubt there is a real shop existing in Bangkok for this kind of products. If you are lucky, some DIY stores have plant growth lights from Philips, EVE lighting etc. Online it's mostly chinese knockoffs and some real <deleted>. Better not buy the cheapest offer...
  5. Thanks KS for your valuable insights. Re water issue: We have a big pond fed by underground water also the management approved drilling a well already in case it runs dry.
  6. 100 percent sure if Thai media dig deeper, the building contractor is a relative or friend of local or state government officials....
  7. And no word about the ASF outbreka from the AG minister and his deputy who oversee the department of livestock and other related agencies. In the newspaper that can not be named was an excellent commentary about this topic. The ministry was given a ton of money for ASF measures yet the use of the money hasn't been clarified...
  8. The thai airforce better invest in small airplanes or helicopters with night vision equipment rather than buying useless fighter jets to defend a non-existing thread. They could find those poachers plus illegal immigrants and drug smugglers.
  9. Thank @kickstart and @farmerjo for your replies. So I am assuming that big gun sprinkler irrigation is the way to go for this particular purpose? What do you think about the other mentioned methods?
  10. Decades ago taxi drivers in Germany all used Mercedes-Benz diesel because of cheaper fuel costs. And at that time they were almost the only diesel sedan available. But super expensive to buy and maintain. Then came Volkswagen and other brands with their diesel engines. And taxi drivers all forgot about their beloved mercedes. What I'm trying to say for fleet owners it's mostly about investment and running costs not about reliability or comfort. That's why in Thailand for a pick up I still would prefer Mitsubishi or Ford over other brands
  11. Oh, the good compressed ganja brickweed, also known as <deleted>-weed. People smoking this can also smoke black or green tea with same effect, smell and taste...
  12. Another +1 for Ford Ranger Vs. Toyota Hilux. Copied from Australian best selling cars blog: Over in the models ranking, the Toyota Hilux (+16.9%) remains the overall best-seller for the 6th consecutive year, hitting record volume and market share at just under 53,000 sales and 5%. The Hilux was however challenged this year by the Ford Ranger (+22.7%) also hitting record volume and share at over 50,000 units and 4.8%. The Ranger managed to hold the monthly top spot no less than 6 times this year: in April, June and from September to December, whereas it had only ranked #1 twice before this year: in September 2017 and September 2020. This is all the more impressive that it occurs in the current generation’s last year. The all-new 2022 model may be able to lift the Ranger to #1 annually next year. Note the Ranger easily tops the 4×4 pickup segment with 45,986 sales vs. 39,587 for the Hilux.
  13. New project coming up with actually 5 or more plot of growing vegetables, field crops and grasses in rotation. Each plot is 40x40m and they are adjacent. Water and pumps are no problem. I was thinking about these methods: Big gun sprinkler micro sprinkler drip tape spray tape My tendency is to #1 Big gun sprinkler. Maybe more costly for initial investment but in my opinion a few advantages: You can move them from plot to plot after each irrigation cycle Easy and short setup time No need to remove anything when the land needs to be worked on If sprinkler from steel probably longer lifetime than plastic pipes/microsprinkler No clogging or similar issues as with tapes Looking forward to comments from the experienced farm members here. Thank you
  14. Not finger limes, but I am looking for high quality lemon or lime trees. Any suppliers that someone knows? Thank you
  15. Amazing in a sad way are the cars that just passing by like nothing happened instead of looking for the driver or secure the accident site. Total idiots. They should be jailed for this behaviour and their cars crushed. Otherwise they don't learn. Alternatively I suggest they work a night shift with rescue volunteers or at an emergency room. That might open their eyes!!!!
  16. Are you in Africa? Then go for it. I'm based in Thailand therefore not relevant for me. As I said I need the pick up as farm vehicle. Transporting produce, soil, fertilizer etc. It will be used 90 percent on paved roads, as we have to drive to other farms in the area, too. This is why I'm looking for some comfort, too. The 4x4 option is just for muddy and steep road sections. We are located near a major city, so if I have any issues with the car, I drive it to the dealer for maintenance and repair.
  17. Because the old junk cars from overseas get shipped to third world countries for second hand cars. That's why you see a lot of Toyota Hilux there. And yes, they might be reliable but certainly not on par with modern Ford or Mitsubishi pick ups. At least if you want to have some comfort functions and a smooth ride on-road.
  18. Thailand lacks quality brand electric motorbikes. Niu would be the only brand to recommend. From local distributors maybe Swag EV. Anyway they are all made in china. Some with quality components like Bosch motor etc. Some have cheap no-name components. Like calculations before, they might be more expensive but the savings from regular use for a few year will make it up. Gasoline won't become cheaper here for sure, electricity still affordable.
  19. And both brands slammed by recent tests and reviews from automobile journalists. Never seen a Toyota or Isuzu in the winner rankings. But anyone to it's own liking. If you like a car with 20 year old technology and interior, go buy it.
  20. Generalization but mostly true. Lowered pickup with wide wheels. Modified for racing lol. Means zero brain cells for the driver. I see these idiots everyday on the road. Forgot to add the removed catalytic converter and spewing black smoke. In any other country the police would have a feast catching and punishing those drivers. Here it's just sit and do nothing from the inactive police force
  21. Don't nail me on this, I just did some casual reading. Current and new Ford Ranger have a chassis with internal naming T6. It's designed to fit interior parts from Volkswagen, making the Amarok. I think the AT 10 speed gear will also be used in the next generation Amarok. Any more details, please Google and read by yourself.
  22. I hope this is only a joke
