Issangeorge Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 You mean the plant that is used as a sweetner? I'd be interested to know also. Sent from my i-mobile IQ 6 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dario Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 If you are looking for a natural sweetener with no after taste for diabetics, then you use "Kontrol" in Thailand. No need to grow Stevia plants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 If you are looking for a natural sweetener with no after taste for diabetics, then you use "Kontrol" in Thailand. No need to grow Stevia plants! Perhaps they are interested in a home grown crop for income so the farmers don't have to grow sugar . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike123ca Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 My bad, I should have been more detailed in my opening question. Xen is correct in that I'm interested in growing some plants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Can only give you some hints.You will need help from a Thai speaking person. In Thai it is called หญ้าหวาน (sweet gras) WiKi in Thai: http://th.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B8%AB%E0%B8%8D%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%AB%E0%B8%A7%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%99 Very vague search result: http://chiangmai.dealfish.co.th/product-2882360/ In a German forum there was a post in May 2013, but no follow up whether growing in Isan was a success. Just posted asking for an update. Edited October 19, 2013 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
