Anything around 2,000 Baht or less probably won't last and/or work so well. The one below is high quality and good value. Quality is on the same level as many of the more expensive ones: https://stablevape.com/หมวดหมู่/(พร้อมส่งด่วน-!!-ของแท้)-Xmax-Starry-40-รุ่นใหม่ล่าสุด-ของแท้รับประกัน-1-ปี This model costs a bit less, same brand and quality, but form factor isn't as nice: https://kondee420.com/product/xmax-v3-pro-dry-herb-ของแท้รับประกัน-1-ปี/

Is anyone familiar with this land on the Google Maps link and the information below pertaining to it? I'm curious what is the real story behind that land and if it's urban legend and/or if there is some truth to the haunted narrative. That land has been fully vacant for at least 15 years I believe after Pizza Hut and KFC vacated the front part of it. The old Nana house at the backside of the property still might be there in some decrepit state and perhaps was never torn down. https://maps.app.goo.gl/QrumfLJxXfUPJc616?g_st=i There have been long-standing rumors and urban legends surrounding the vacant land once occupied by the Nana family villa between Soi 1 and Soi 3 on Sukhumvit Road. According to these stories, the land is believed to be haunted, and this is often cited as the reason why no major developments have taken place there despite its prime location. It is said that the spirits of the land may have become restless after the house was abandoned, and this spiritual unrest has made developers hesitant to build anything new on the property. Some versions of the legend suggest that people who attempted to develop the land were met with misfortune or strange occurrences, further fueling the belief that the land is haunted. While these stories contribute to the mystery surrounding the site, it’s worth noting that other factors, such as legal disputes over ownership or business decisions, could also play a role in why the land remains undeveloped. However, the supernatural element adds an intriguing layer to the history of this property, reflecting how local beliefs and folklore often become intertwined with real estate in Thailand.

In my opinion, the feeling of paranoia is really just a sensory trigger related to the slightly elevated heart rate that typically occurs during the first half hour from any of the higher level THC strains. Since, in everyday life, a sudden elevated heart rate often occurs from being frightened, startled or worried about something, the subconscious mind will often associate that sudden increase in heart rate from the cannabis as something worrying that then triggers a mild feeling of paranoia. I think if you acknowledge this then it becomes easier to manage it and normally, after half an hour, the anxiety dissipates and moves into a more relaxed and happy feeling. I also noticed that if I consume more cannabis two hours later, after the initial dose, then that elevated heart rate doesn't occur again and I just get that nice smooth sailing feeling. I do prefer the stronger THC strains though because I find it more difficult to get a solid relaxed and euphoric lock in place from the weaker stuff. Also, by ingesting a cannabis infused oil, the onset of the THC effect is progressive, rather than hitting all at once (like when you smoke it) and, thus with the oil you end up avoiding that initial burst of elevated heart rate and paranoia all together.

I’ve never really seen a discussion about the effects of smoking or vaping cannabis versus consuming a full spectrum cannabis infused oil, so I thought I would offer some of my own personal experience. Many people have said to me that the psychoactive effects of the two feel very different. In my opinion, having experimented a lot with both, I feel that the psychoactive effects of both are really about the same, however, there is a difference in terms of onset, duration, intensity, and the initial physical reactions. First, when you inhale any form of cannabis, you’re going to feel the full effect of it within about 10-15 minutes. Edible cannabis oil and you are looking at about one hour before you feel the onset of the effects and about one and a half hours until you’re feeling the full effect of the dose you’ve taken. Then the duration. The psychoactive effects of smoking or vaping cannabis normally lasts for about 2 to 3 hours in the system. Ingesting any form of cannabis oil normally last a bit longer, or at least about 3 to 4 hours (after the one hour onset activation time has passed). The two biggest differences to me are the strength and intensity and the initial feeling. With an oil, you are normally going to feel the effects much stronger once it reaches peak level in the body because it’s a concentrated form of THC. You can achieve the same level of THC concentration from vaping or smoking, but, unless you’re smoking a lot of it all at once, then you are probably not going to feel it as intensely as you will from a concentrated form of THC, something like an edible cannabis oil. To me, the initial onset of the psychoactive feeling is probably the most important difference. With an oil, the THC works itself through your bloodstream and into your brain more slowly than if you inhale it. The benefit of this is that you often don’t get that initial rush of increased heart rate or that hot/flush feeling that you sometimes do when smoking or vaping, which I believe occurs when the brain is feeling the full effect of the THC so quickly. I see this slower onset of the THC effects as a huge benefit because the onset of the psychoactive feeling from the oil comes on in a more relaxed way, which I find is much more pleasurable for someone who wants to use it as a method for relaxation or as a sleep aid. If you just want to get high quickly, and are not concerned about any initial physical reactions, then smoking or vaping it is better. But used purely for relaxation, I think oil is the best way to go. For example, I often vape a bit of it before I get into bed, but it’s hard to fall asleep right away afterwards because the initial burst of the THC from inhaling it usually raises my heart rate for the first 20-25 minutes. With the oil, I swallow some of it, get into bed and, as the oil starts taking affect, I start to feel more relaxed from the THC and then doze off without any feelings of anxiety from any form of increased body temperature or heart rate. Overall, I would say I do enjoy vaping for the immediacy of the effects when I want to get high quickly however, I do prefer the more relaxed feeling from the slow creep of the onset of effects when swallowing some oil. Oil is also more portable and easier to consume on a regular basis as it requires no burning or extra equipment to be able to consume it. Just carry it in a small glass dropper bottle and you can take a few drops of it anytime or anywhere with complete discretion, no smoke and without causing any disturbance to others. I usually just squeeze out a few drops from the glass dropper onto a square of my favorite chocolate, then eat it and done.

I think you are mistakenly referring to the other seller ca08 who is out of stock for 2 months on all their outdoor grown weed because of crop damage from storms.

You only get that from a two-stage metal grinder. I just use the cheap single-stage 20 Baht plastic grinders from Sedina which provides the perfect grind for any type of use and it never gives you any of that powder. The powder is good for vaporizers though if mixed together with about 1/3 of regularly ground flower.

Your welcome. When I first decided to give it a go I never expected it to turn out as positive as it has. Been doing it for a number of months now. I remember when the first delivery arrived and I immediately thought to myself; why haven't I been doing this for the last five years already?

I am using a prepared meal delivery service called Power Daily that is a proper cooking facility located somewhere a bit north of the Don Muang area and they offer a service based on a set-menu that changes every Friday. Ordering is done via the LINE app and payment is made in advance via a local bank transfer. They deliver anywhere in Bangkok using La La Move. If you order and pay before 7:00 PM then you will receive delivery of the order the following day. They deliver 6 days a week, but not on Sundays. They offer two delivery slots per day that you can choose from; morning and early afternoon. Delivery is free for orders over 600 Baht, which means a minimum of 5 meals need to be ordered to get free delivery. Meal price averages around 110-130 Baht per meal. The high protein meals are typically priced around 130-140 Baht each, depending. It is all chicken and salmon based stuff with typically a mix of vegetables and/or pasta. The meals are usually around 350 grams, of which around 200 grams of chicken if it is a protein box meal, which is really good. All the recipes are really tasty and flavorful and full of herbs and spices in my opinion. Three of the high protein meals I really like can be found under the codes ACG, ACC and ACH on their menu. But their menu changes every week and there is always lots to choose from. You can keep the meals fresh in the fridge up to around 4 days before consuming them. If you want to store them in the freezer then they can last a couple of months that way. I found the service listed on the post below where there also about 25 more that you can also check out and choose from.

I’ll add that the sky train was a big game changer for me too, but only for about the first 10 years that it was in operation. Thus, I didn’t mention it because eventually I developed a lifestyle which no longer required me to move around the city during the busy times of the day and use of the BTS became much less necessary for me. Now I live in a part of the city where I can walk for 90% of my needs. And I often do the things that require more travel distances at night time when I can drive my motorcycle and not deal with any traffic. If I take the sky train now more than 1 one time every 1-3 months then that’s a lot. I guess it’s almost fallen off my radar by now.

I don't mind the emoji. That's fine. To each his own. I was also skeptical of using a meal delivery service at first, but the company I use now has a very clean processing/factory prep operation just outside the city. These types of services often have better quality control and cleanliness than restaurants and street food stalls because they run like a factory line. The meal prep service also uses high quality ingredients and the food outcome is very consistent. The food isn't the cheapest, but it isn't very expensive either compared to a restaurant and it's worth what they charge for it in my opinion. They also partially freeze the meals with liquid nitrogen before they ship them out so that there is no added condensation when they thaw. By the time they reach me from the courier, they are just chilled and then they go right into the fridge. They come out perfect every time when I prepare them and they never taste processed or reheated to me. This has been a game changer because never could I prepare these complex recipes myself, especially with all the various steps and ingredients needed. I've also been here a long time and shopped at nearly every major wet market in Bangkok. For me this works the best. It's convenient, I eat well, and I'm happy. I left you a thumbs up. 👍🏼

I get most of my food delivered in boxes twice a week by a prepared meal delivery service. They drop them off for me in the lobby and I just throw them in the fridge. Then I reheat them for 2 minutes in the microwave whenever I want to eat them. Food is fresh and delicious, cleaner than restaurant or street food, and I still don't have to do any cooking myself. Just buy a few drinks and fresh salad stuff at 7-11 as I head back home. The meal delivery service model been another major life changer for me in Bangkok and I rarely deal with markets, malls, or supermarkets for food anymore.

Others who have been here for a few decades have also witnessed the many pronounced changes to the city over the years. Some of the changes were physical in nature. Others were pure improvements to convenience. And then there were some that were not very good at all. For each person the changes might feel different though because we all get affected by things in different ways. Some might think things are better, while others might feel they are worse. It all depends on your lifestyle, what you are involved with in Thailand, where you are living, who you know, and your own personal points of reference. As for the changes themselves, there are too many to cover in a short post, but I want to focus on one recent and positive change which has most directly impacted my daily life. As simple as it sounds, it was the massive shift and revolution to the world of online retail shopping and food delivery that took place about 6-7 years ago, which really changed things for me. It actually re-rendered my life in Bangkok exponentially. For example, I used to spend nearly a whole day fighting through traffic merely to get to a computer center, just to get a small cable, then spend more time going to a market elsewhere to get food, etc, and then still need to go out again in the evening for dinner. Now none of that is necessary. I can get all of that sorted from my phone in a few minutes and then spend my time relaxing, exercising, and waiting for deliveries instead of fighting the heat, traffic, crowds and pollution just to get anything done. Of course they are many other changes that have affected me too, but that's the most recent one that also feels the most pronounced. Have there been any significant changes to Bangkok life that have greatly changed something for you and in a positive way?

Better to just make your own oil. It will likely be better quality than what many people out there are selling and you will know exactly what it's made of.

I wouldn't compare things to the prices in the high-priced tourist shops where they have spent a lot on decoration and are paying the high rents. Those places are for people who don't live in Thailand, don't have easy access to it in their own country, and aren't concerned about the price of a couple of grams of it while they are on a holiday and just looking to have a good time. For the people living in Thailand, and who use it regularly, there are many better and lower cost options though. I think the biggest issue is that finding high quality weed in Thailand is no longer a challenge. So, whereas people would have gotten excited when seeing photos of nice looking buds like this a couple of years ago, now it's everywhere. We are all spoiled for choice. And these prices of 120-130 Baht per gram is last year's pricing, as you can now find that same kind of quality at half that price when buying an ounce or two. If it were 6-8 months ago, then those prices wouldn't have seemed so high. In fact, just last year, most of these sellers would have been running out of stock with such high quality weed when selling it at 120-130 a gram. Now they can no longer get rid of it so easily, even at those seemingly low prices. There are just too many high quality, lower priced options now. I feel for some of these sellers trying to make a living and not wanting to cut prices to meet the current market pricing. But it's an issue of supply and demand and it seems like there are too many people trying to get into the business of what was once an easy money-making gig, merely a couple of years ago. Now the market is saturated and it has become an uphill battle for sellers, thus pricing may only continue to get even more competitive as time goes on.

Thank you for all that extra info. Very interesting. It sounds like really nice stuff. I decided I'm not going to order any at the moment though. Probably in the future, once I use up some of what I have. Issue is I've still got plenty on hand at the moment to last me a while. But I've passed the info onto a friend who might be more interested at this time.

I might give your Khanon supplier a try at some point as you have gotten me curious about what their flowers are like. It's about double the price of what I normally pay, and I have no issues with the quality of what I'm getting now, so no reason for me to look to elsewhere, but it would still be interesting to compare. You mentioned a number of the strains they offer and posted a bunch of photos. But unfortunately there is no way of knowing which photo is which strain from your posts. Can you please give us some indication of which of the strains you feel has the strongest THC level and post an isolated photo of that strain so that we can see what it looks like? Also, is there one strain of theirs that you feel has the highest amount of resin and stickiness above the others? I don't mean to sound THC-centric, as I realize it doesn't account for everything, but I've gotten a lot of weak stuff that doesn't really do it for me. So I'm a bit more THC focused now.

None of the various strains of that 20 Baht weed I got struck me as being PGR, as none of the buds looked really compressed and unnaturally formed. In fact, a lot of the buds were very loose, with a fair amount of small sugar leaves, which struck me as being naturally grown, lower quality outdoor weed. Some of it feels a bit too dry though and lacks resin, which I interpret as being a bit of a freshness issue. Also, I interpreted the chemical smell I noticed in all of it as possibly being a form of pesticide or herbicide that was used, but I could be wrong. A lot of what my main supplier sells looks like PGR to me, but the buds aren't as compressed as some of the other very round and dense PGR stuff I have seen in the past. They also have quite a bit of stuff that doesn't look like PGR. Although PGR buds look less natural, because of their tightness, all the non-PGR looking stuff I've bought from my supplier seems noticeably weaker on the THC side than the PGR looking stuff. It is supposed to be the other way around, but in my experience it's not. So I normally stick with the PGR looking weed they sell. And usually the non-PGR looking bud they offer is a bit cheaper too. You would expect it to be the opposite, but again it's not. I suspect the non-PGR stuff they sell is a bit cheaper mainly because it seems to have lower THC levels. Although PGR bud is also known to have less terpenes, look less frosty, and is known to have lower THC, I find the PGR looking stuff I'm getting doesn't have any of those issues. Terpenes are always very strong, as much as one would expect, and no chemical smell that I can detect. Some of the strains I get have less stickiness and resin than other strains do, so it depends on the strain. Some of it has a lot of resin too and really sticks to the grinder. So it depends. But none if it ever feels really overly dry. And in terms of color, smell, taste, and THC content, it's all there. Maybe they have found a good balance between using some PGRs, in order to still get the benefits of a higher yielding plant, but without all the downsides. Here are some known ways of determining PGR weed, although my experience on the PGR looking stuff I get is mainly the physical appearance is a bit different, with the buds being tighter and denser, but many of the other points below don't seem to apply to what I'm getting: 1. **Overly Dense Buds**: PGRs can cause buds to become unnaturally dense and hard. While density is often desired, excessive density can be a sign of PGR use and can lead to issues like poor airflow within the buds, increasing the risk of mold and mildew. 2. **Altered Color**: Buds treated with PGRs may exhibit unnatural colors, often appearing darker or brownish rather than the vibrant green or purple hues typically seen in healthy cannabis. 3. **Reduced Trichome Production**: Trichomes, the resinous glands that contain cannabinoids and terpenes, may be less abundant on PGR-treated buds. This can result in a less frosty appearance and can also impact the potency and aroma of the cannabis. 4. **Misshapen Buds**: The natural structure of the buds can be distorted, leading to a less visually appealing product. Buds may appear more compact and less fluffy compared to naturally grown cannabis. 5. **Lack of Aroma**: PGRs can affect the terpene profile, reducing the natural scent of the cannabis. This results in buds that have a muted or less pronounced aroma compared to non-PGR-treated cannabis. 6. **Reduced Potency**: Buds treated with PGRs often have lower THC levels compared to those grown without these chemicals. This reduction in THC can diminish the psychoactive effects and overall potency of the cannabis. 7. **Altered Cannabinoid Profile**: The presence of PGRs can interfere with the natural production of cannabinoids, potentially altering the overall cannabinoid profile of the plant. This means other important cannabinoids, not just THC, may also be present in lower concentrations. 8. **Impaired Resin Production**: Since PGRs can reduce trichome production, and trichomes are where THC and other cannabinoids are concentrated, the overall resin production is compromised. This directly affects the THC content and the quality of the cannabis.

I agree there is no need to spend a lot on weed now, but I tried a lot of that 20 Baht weed a few months back. It's really is Ok, yes. But there are issues. First though, let me start with the smell; it all smells the same to me, no matter how the buds might look a bit different between the various strains they sell (I tried about 8 of them). And to me, it all has a bit of a chemical smell that I've never experienced before. Next, it has never been able to get me really high. From the high quality stuff I use, just 2-3 hits in an vape and I'm solidly stoned for a couple hours. With that lower grade stuff, I really can't say the same. You mentioned first joint of the day. So I guess you are smoking a few joints of it in a day. With the high-quality stuff, I am using nowhere near 1 gram to 1.5 grams a day like you are. You might say to me then just use more of the lower quality stuff to increase the dose to what you need. Well, yeah, I tried that too, and in theory that should work, but it doesn't for me. It seems there's a limit to how high I can get with that stuff, no matter how much I use and I never seem to reach the same high point that I do with just a little bit of the high-grade stuff. I don't know why. And the difference in price between the top-grade stuff and that 20 Baht stuff is very minimal for me. So I stopped experimenting with that cheaper stuff. It just didn't work out. Lots of people are very pleased with it though, which is great, so I'm not knocking it. Just sharing my own experience and to me, no, sorry, it's really not the same.

I've made my own oil and it's really nice. Not like an edible that takes longer to take effect. Also, oil doesn't stay as long in the intestines like an edible does as it is more quickly absorbed. The high from oil really isn't too dissimilar to smoking or vaping it. It's actually a really good way to store and consume it too once you have the oil prepared. It is work though. Will take you half a day to make up a batch. But once it's done then you have nearly a 6 month supply and you don't have to mess about grinding up buds and smoking them. Much cleaner, no smell, or wear and tear on the throat or respiratory system. Oil is also more of an extract than a concentrate the way that an edible is. With oil, it's much easier to control the dose by experimenting with how many drops you need. With an edible though it's much more like a concentrate and difficult to reduce the strength of the dose if you don't like the effect.

It's a great idea, but seemingly nearly impossible in practice. There are literally thousands of small growers in Thailand who distribute through online sales using messaging apps and deliver by messenger. No way you can regulate that as all the networks of buyers and sellers are already in place. To regulate it would mean pushing all of those small operators out of business and put the distribution back into the hands of a few big cartels, like the ones that now control the alcohol business in Thailand. Recriminalizing it would have basically done that though by turning anyone who sells it into a criminal and it would have gone back into a black market industry dominated by criminal cartels.

Of course, all the stress of being PM, should be nothing to worry about.

In celebration, free buds and 1,000,000 free cannabis plants for anyone who wants them. No, wait...

I believe Bangkok Post article links are not permitted on this website. Anyway, that same article has also been published on this website too under a different title. Not sure who actually authored the article:
