Popular Post webfact Posted June 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2022 Food and recreational use now allowed NOTE: Important Guidelines for Cannabis use, see post #2 Cannabis has suddenly become a fad among many Thai eateries, which are openly offering food and drinks containing cannabis after the plant, as well as hemp, were removed from the illegal narcotics yesterday (Thursday). Numerous shops are selling cannabis and smoking accessories, with the plants, which used to be grown secretly in the back gardens, now being cultivated and sold openly. A Nonthaburi food shop, which is in a converted cargo container, now offers hamburger with cannabis cheese and fried chicken topped with fried shredded cannabis leaves. The owner said that leaves are also used in the chicken marinade, as seasoning. A housewife in the north-eastern province of Buri Ram told Thai PBS that she secretly planted cannabis in her back garden and uses the leaves in food or boiled as a drink to help her sleep well.

Oh…it’ll be a money maker for sure. Get ready for a massive drive for urine tests at checkpoints for anybody (especially deep pocketed foreigners) who might be out riding a motorbike or driving a car. You’ll pop even if you’re sober. “For someone smoking cannabis for the first time, tests may detect it for about 3 days. In someone who smokes cannabis three or four times per week, the detection window is 5–7 days. For people who smoke cannabis once a day or more, tests may detect it in their system for 30 days or longer.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/324315#marijuana-detection-windows 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have been told not to touch it. Next is to tax Cannabis, but that’s the next phase. ???? 6 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There multiple test kits which CAN test the THC level for dry flower example: As for testing urine this is possible as well That being said there are currently no limits on flower, as long as you do not extract it to make a concentrate. There also is no law on how much you can have in your body. The intention of the legalization was for medicinal use, and as multiple sources have stated not recreational use. (there are many medicinal reasons why someone would use cannabis). Edited June 10, 2022 by ThaiVisaCentre 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gilligan In Drag Posted June 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2022 It appears that I now have to eat crow (never tasted crow before, I imagine it tastes like pigeon meat) and that all cannabis, which I have heard tell is up to 28-30 percent THC with some of the latest strains, is legal. I don't understand all the articles we had on ASEAN-Thai, or whatever this forum is called now, about "cannabis" that is over 0.02% would remain illegal. Just two days ago or so there was an article saying that cannabis "except for psychoactive substances" would be legal. What is the explanation for that, and for all of the brou haha about cannabis being required to be lower that 0.02%? Are the articles presented on this site that badly translated, or are they simply redacted heavily by someone who personally doesn't want "cannabis" to be legal? Whats the deal? Seems you'll have to wait and see till all the smoke clears if you want to smoke, grow your own etc, so I'm glad I don't enjoy smoking cannabis, though my dad used to grow it and smoke it when I was growing up in the 70's and I smoked a few times a week from the time i was 16 til I was 24. So it is all still interesting to me though I don't like pot now. If I were a smoker I would really hate to have to sit on the fence and wait for things to pan out. I can imagine in some provinces they may continue prosecuting people. I also still find it hard to believe there isn't some catch. I'm sorry but I have to say, the reporting on this whole issue has been done rather poorly over the last 5 months or so. What about growing cannabis? Though I don't smoke I do like raising all kinds of interesting plants and cannabis grown well is a highly charismatic plant, with it s aromas and large bushy clumps of flowers. You'd think you'd incur the wrath of your community just by creating large amounts of envy and get into trouble that way. So, I am not about to run out and plant it, though now is the time I believe, you want to have your plants of a decent size when the photo-period is such that it induces flowering in the late fall/winter. But you also do not want to plant auto-flowering varieties just yet because rainy season is here and your buds will likely succumb to rot. I really don't know what I am talking about, it is just what I remember friends who were ganja farmers back in the day saying. Most foreigners could grow better cannabis than most of the locals, growing good cannabis requires a lot of attention that few Thais are willing to commit to. It also needs to be cured properly or it ends up being unpleasant to smoke. We'll no doubt be inundated by loads of cheap head-ache inducing, seed permeated moldy stale brown stuff. But, Thai cannabis strains are world famous of course, Thai stick was a prized form of ganja when I was a kid, so it would not be too hard to get ahold of some good genetics, so growing your own would be the thing. Seems too good to be true. Failing being able to locate good seeds you could order seeds but I suppose there's some kind of ban on that. I guess we'll all have to hold our inhalations for awile and see what happens next. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terryofcrete Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 The press release is just a publicity thing to attract tourists and eventually generate tax revenue . It was on the main news bulletins here in Ireland so presume the word was sent out to the international press and TV.

Would love a Pink Floyd coffee shop. Ever been to AMS in high summer? Not my kind of party but that's the crowd we can expect to come here. With alcohol, not all tokers are mellow. If you grow quality, local teenagers will definitely harvest it for you! There are laws against smoking indoors, that would include pot. Used to sit in an upstairs room overlooking Patpong having a toke with the girls, before yaba. Lot of fun. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
