One ! If you put 400k in the bank and report the plants growth every 90 days, if you cut or replant you need to submit a TM 30 for it. Oh and a Thai must own the soil it's planted in.

bout time the UK mooted something, anything, like this. Stuffy ****ers won't have any sort of freedom for enjoyment!

If you grow at home, better have a guard dog.

 

The dog look like it has tested a couple of plants already.

as long as use is still not legal.. then you can have all the plants you want but cant do a thing. 

According to OP:  "you can have it at home for ailments, but not smoke it on the street"

There's got to be a catch. And you can bet it has something to with money going to those who authorise the approvals. 

 

I haven't seen the draft legislation, nor have I seen reviews of it on Thai social media yet but...

 

I suspect that home growers will have to register with the authorities, gain some sort of approvals and agree to be monitored via spot inspections. Legal seedstock may be limited via government sources. Only Thai citizens will be allowed to grow, obviously.

The wife will have to get rid of the other 500.

Legal only for Thais???

How about us foreigners?

We like get high too..

You’re already a presumed criminal and possible terrorist. I highly doubt they are going to give you drugs. But anything is possible.

Look forward to even more high flying pickups crashing through your window and killing you on the streets at least we can laugh about it????

Not a good idea IMO.

If it is for medical reasons it should be treated as any other medical remedy. Growing it at home will IMO allow for misuse.

If it was made totally legal (as I think it should though I am not a user) , then home growth should be fine.

[Tropposurfer]

What a great idea ... more disassociated, drug affected people riding scooters and driving cars trucks n buses.

Brilliant Thai govt really brilliant????

[yellowboat]

Doubt it will happen.  It would be good for farmers as it is the best selling herb of all time, but some farmers will segment their land to all their relatives to increase their legal yield.  All for it, but the basket case government is more likely to create a mess than a solution.

That only happens with alcohol. And they've been allowing that blood bath to go on for over a hundred years!

I totally agree they won't "give" us drugs but I think they will certainly be willing to sell them which I think is a part of the plan,also to woo back the lost tourist numbers as I think certain pockets are starting to hurt.

I don't think the law/act recently enacted actually bans smoking indoors in one's own home.

 

I think it is meant to offer family members, co-habitating, some sort of legal protection in the event they wish to file a complaint. No punishments were included, AFAIK.

<deleted>.  For Thais only.  Better get 10 more Mia Noi ... this is getting expensive.

Current, modern use of the word = really cool. Awesome. Might even be "super" awesome!

 

That dope was totally dope! 

[garyk]

This kinda reminds me of the opium and marijuana dealers in the mountains going up to the falls out side of Pai.  It was legal for the people to have it and to sell it but when you bought it you were arrested when going down the mountain. I used to go up and watch the dealers selling opium and pot and there would be a undercover guy sitting with them to tell the police below. Figure that out. I personally would not be caught dead with any weed in Thailand.

I am not sure I understand the distinction between possibility of “home growth misuse” if it is legal for medical vs recreational.
