Re: Cambodia needs to take a page from Thailand!
The sticks were just the traditional way of packaging it. Before baggies.
Wrapping them on sticks again now seems just a new marketing ploy.
The very particular qualities of the old thai varieties were what made them legendary - not the bamboo stick and hemp thread.
(so so) Sadly those strains now seem to be totally extinct from all (knowledgeable) reports i can find.
The strains needed continuous seed selection to prevent them regressing back to hemp.
Sativa generally is particularly prone to turn hermaphrodite. If these plants are not removed they soon pollinate into the whole crop, and in a few years they will nearly all be hermies, or just poor quality.
The strictly enforced prohibition that occurred from the 1980's totally broke that whole traditional culturing of these unique varieties. Once gone, it would take a hundred years of traditional farming to bring them back.
Let me know if i am wrong. I would love nothing more than to find they still exist in some hidden hills.
But, i will know for sure if it is fake - if you ever had the privilege, you remember the real thing for the rest of your life. Unique.

Let's hope this fairs better for them and sets a trend the neighbors can covet.

Doesn't make me high, just hungry and sick. Some people are allergic to the stuff, for those of you who didn't know, and it can have an unpleasant reaction like vomiting and paralysis. Don't wear your best shirt if you decide to have a giggle and blow it in my face

Anyhow I will let you read on -

Hilarious, this 17 year old stoners fantasy. Every siiiingle word is bald faced bulldust.
The naive dangerous arrogance of the pig ignorant deluded - spinning ancient wisdoms which came in a dream last night.
