Does anyone in NZ recognize this strain from the Bay of Plenty, Rotorua area?
I was given a handful of seed by a friend who got it from a friend of a friend in Rotorua.
Most plants smell of lemons and haze but of 7 this one girl smells strong of burnt stubble and no lemon!
Judging by the look and strain diversity I'm guessing it's been around a while

Something positive for Victorians. Hopefully other states follow suit asap.

Instead, magistrates have been given the power to exercise sentencing discretion for drivers who test positive for the cannabinoid chemical tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), if they hold a valid prescription for medicinal cannabis and are unimpaired while driving.

We have to see the bill, but as it stands the drug testing does not test for impairment but instead tests for traces of a prohibited (illegal) substance.

So if it's up to magistrates then people will still be pulled over randomly tested and if a positive is shown a loose the licence on the spot and then attend court like they do with any DUI, and then It's up to the courts.

The only real way to stop these tests is for cannabis to become legal, then they will need to test for impairment and not just test for traces of a prohibited substance.
