bulekee Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Does the NNB even know what they are writhing? Normally the street value of 1 kilo marijuana here in Thailand is 20,000 THB. With this lot it is 100,000 THB. (500,000,000/5000) You seem very informed about marijuana price. Can I be your friend? Get to the back of the que!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Where does Holland buy it's legal weed from? In Holland, legal weed is bought legally from guys who grow it illegally. Sounds a bit like a country I know, fits btwn Malaysia and Burma. Its one of the mistakes, that is why growing should be legal back in The Netherlands too. Some are campaigning for it as its a crazy situation where its legal to sell and own but not to grow. Still its good that its legal to use as its a big step forward and less damaging as alcohol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching a show about a legal "compassion clinic", i.e. cannabis and hashish dispenser in California, and the way it worked there was that private growers "donated" their crop to the shop, where is was carefully examined for purity and graded by its percentage of active ingredients. After that, the grower was given a "gift" of money, usually quite a bit of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brevity Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I have a friend who would love to find your street. He got what he wanted but paid 600 baht for what must have been about 5 grams. Your friend is confirmation of P. T. Barnum's one IS born a minute theory. Ya, I guess so. I suppose he could have spent god knows how long running around sweltering Pattaya trying to save a couple hundred baht, but as the guy is a self-made millionaire, he wasn't too worried about spending a few quid to get the bit of smoke he wanted to enjoy on his holiday. I wish I were as much of a sucker as he is and had been able to build a million dollar business with my wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperdimension Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Why would Holland import crap Thai weed? Seriously its like importing piss water when you have a lake full of Glenfiddich. The coffeeshops in Netherlands offer many different cannabis strains. Possibly this seized cache was a supply of Thai Stick: A Thai stick is a form of cannabis from Thailand that was popular during the late 1960s and 1970s. It consisted of premium buds of seedless marijuana which were skewered on stems. Several rows of fiber found in the stalk of the marijuana plant were then used to tie the marijuana to the stem to keep it in place.[1] Thai stick bud may also be tied around bamboo sticks with a piece of string known as a “rasta hair.”[2] The Thai sticks exhibited considerably higher potency in comparison with other cannabis available in Western countries at the time. This added potency was rumored to be caused by the Thai sticks being dipped in opium. However, the more widely accepted reason is that Thai cannabis growers had for hundreds of years selected seeds from their strongest plants, which coupled with Thailand's long growing season, high temperatures and, rich volcanic soil, conspired to produce an exceptionally potent product. A number of reasons have been cited for the decline of the Thai stick; stricter policing of cannabis cultivation; dilution of traditional cannabis populations by earlier maturing, less psychoactive cultivars imported from Pakistan and Afghanistan; the burgeoning indoor growing industry in target markets; and the reduction of military troop transports (which was the primary means of export) between Thailand, particularly Bangkok, and the United States, at the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. In modern terminology, Thai stick often refers to marijuana tied to stem as documented above and then dipped into a hashish oil, a potent cannabis derivative which saturates the buds and lends to a stronger smoke. Some California cannabis clubs sell this product. Originally, this was a frequent practice of the 1970s with the actual Thai stick. There are still some surviving recipes from Cambodia where high quality marijuana and hash oil are used. As I've already said Thai stick is rare these days and that really doesn't look much like good Thai stick. You can even see stems and stalk compressed into those bricks in the image, it is just regular brick weed by the looks of things I found this picture on the internet (From Thailand, to Holland, to Spain: From Thai stick seeds to smoke able weed: Thai Sinse.) with the caption "You can see the seeds it the sticks, that is how Thai sticks come.": Do they look a bit like the bricks in the news article?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought - after decriminalization and legalization, what happens to those who had been penalized by the laws? Would they be compensated? Obviously those who were killed due to the death penalty cannot be resurrected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point,i guess it would depend on the legislation/bill whatever,but i would doubt it,maybe for possesion the criminal record would be struck off,but i reckon that would be about it.

Popular Post bitterbatter Posted April 30, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2014 This story is full of assumptions that are humorous. How did they know it was headed to Amsterdam? Did it have a mailing address label on the packages?Are they going to charge him with international trafficking pre-crime? Who in Amsterdam would actually buy it? The quality is nothing like what the shops sell. So, if this brick weed isn't good enough to sell in Amsterdam then maybe they would try to make it into hash. But smoking the hash you would probably get higher off of the pesticides than the weed itself. Probably the most realistic answer to this riddle is that this was a fake story, so they could post it on Thai Visa forum and find out which forum members like cannibas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Where does Holland buy it's legal weed from? In Holland, legal weed is bought legally from guys who grow it illegally. That is one of the anomalies of the Dutch system, i.e. that it encourages illegal smuggling into Holland from countries where it is illegal. Morocco is the largest supplier to Europe in general. Most of it is smuggled in boats to Spain and then overland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitar God Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I've noticed that the ganja related stories here are well-received... Just sayin'... Anyway, most all of the coffeeshops also carry some imported brickweed from Thailand, Jamaica, Mexico etc. It's not the most popular of strains but sometimes people like a change. No matter how good the indoor-grown Dutch sensimilla is, you can get used to it and switching to brickweed, even if it's inferior in quality, can give you a more desirable effect. Or so I've heard.
