But did you find the old Thai, and the best I read that was found by BC in the form of a pre rolled joint in Bangkok.

Funky has been very relentless in his search and to be honest so have many others and all leaving very disappointed.
As has been pointed out numerous times. A Westerner going to Thailand for a few weeks or even months, would be lucky to find this sort of thing. You imagine someone coming to Australia as a tourist trying to find a good sativa.

How many going to Thailand are going to non tourist areas for starters? Not everything ends up in the capital cities.

My mate who travelled to Thailand for work monthly from say mid 80s until early 90s would land in Bangkok drop his bags off at the hotel and then catch a tuk tuk to his mate to score an OZ it was very easy to get weed and very good weed even at the height of prohibition.

Is it a coincidence that BC also found the best Thai weed in some small stand in Bangkok ?

This didn`t come from Bushweed did it ?
The Hmong Hill Tribe story that Bushweed spun is a doozy , but not true .

I asked Prof 77 about this Hong Hill Tribe seed Bushweed had that he sent to Nevil and Kanga . Bushweed ,was their safe address . Prof 77 he told me it was just some good weed his father in law in Phitsanulok found in Phitsanulok . No mention of any hill tribe .

The money is in Bangkok, most likely anything purchasable will make its way to Bangkok. Any drug can be found in Bangkok.
I disagree with that one. Someone who has a small garden in a remote village isn't likely to send stuff to Bangkok, especially if they have a local market, or just supply their family. Also, if the Bangkok market is almost completely hybrids, then why would they bother trying to supply that market with something that doesn't sell.

I've been to more remote places in Laos. Some villages are like stepping back 1000 years.

Can’t argue with that as I haven’t been north of Thailand.

Yes, but how is that relevant to what is happening now? We all know the market is flooded with Western hybrids, and that is what the market wants.

I'm sure some makes it to Bangkok, but do you really think all the small household grows make it there?

Brokers sent their people all over Thailand buying cannabis and sending it back to Bangkok where it was graded and packed ready for export, that's how it worked.

Even the guys from the book Thai Stick have said the same thing, and some of the largest Thai Stick busts happened in Bangkok.

These same brokers were the guys that once it got too hot in Thailand to do the big grows set up grows in Cambodia and Laos.

It doesn't sound romantic, but that's how it was.

Maybe you didn't notice but the world has drastically changed since this period, it was 35/40 years ago, we changed of century since. Your buddy could try to make what he did back then and it wouldn't work the same way, that's so obvious.

That was in the days of huge crops of Thai Stick, which as we all know is no longer the case and hasn't been for 50 years.

What happens when authorities clamp down on commercial cannabis crops? They downscale which is where you might find the stick if it still exists.

Again, where did BC find the best weed in Thailand on his trip ?

It was in a small pop up stand in the form of a pre rolled joint in Bangkok.

I am a glass half full type of person and I 100% believe good Thai is still being grown in Thailand, but I highly doubt a tourist is going to find it without either meeting the right person and them liking you or having someone you know well knowing the right people.

People aren't stupid, those that have it, as I said in a previous post, have had it passed down to them and why would they just give away something that is clearly a valued commodity.

Most are sitting back watching all this Cali big pharma weed being dumped onto the Thai market, outside interests cashing in while they make very little.

Prof77 told Nevil his seed was a mix of different Thai seed collected over a period of years from the things they bought to smoke.

Well I sat on Prof`s bed in his bedroom in Phitsanulok and he told me .
The batch he sent Nevil and Kangativa was a special batch his father in law had kept from some outstanding weed .
He gave me a match box full of brick weed seeds he had collected . I didn`t get to post them home so I gave them back to him along with the quarter ounce of weed he gave me that I carried around in my pocket for a week .

When Nevil was starting his "Grail project "
Prof 77 asked me if he should trust Nevil and Kangativa with his FIL`s seeds . I said absolutely these guys are the elite .
Kangativa did grow some of the seed the season they were busted . He told me it reminded him of Golden Thai . The plant was finishing in March / April from the pics I saw .

Yea, I know you stayed with him and his wife Elmer, but Nevil also spoke to him a bit and formed a relationship with him.

He told Nevil the seed he sent Nevil was a mix batch of seed collected over some years from things they bought to smoke with in Thailand.

Nevil grew them some were very good some were not the Hmong label some gave them is made up.

You seem to flip flop between saying it's extinct, then saying it must be there.

That was exactly my point. A tourist is not likely to find it unless they are very lucky or know someone. In this market the valued product isn't the Thai stick, it's the shiny new hybrid.

If it still exists, it's likely somewhere off the beaten track imo.

I don't flip flow Chi, but you and the Duck sure love to argue about every thing that don't fit your narrative.

Where did you post that Chi or is that the CBD affect lol

If I have it and other people I know have it, I am sure others in Thailand do and I am sure others do too in other places.

Most people don't even know cannabis forums exist.

Hempy, it’s all hearsay, none of what you say is fact, just stuff you read or imagined. No real world experience.
As @Stoneguru said if you limited your sharing to what you grow, what you have 1st hand experience of, you wouldn’t feel so persecuted.
In the cannabis world chain of custody rarely exists.
Only facts about Thai stick are, there was a seed, it was grown, it was sticked (wet, dry, opiated?), it was shipped, it was smoked. There’s so much unknown, undocumented (fair enough too, death penalty is absolute). Your embellishment of these facts to suit your narrative is sad.
“If” what you say about your weed and it’s potency, I can see why you’re a delusional internet lurker far removed from reality.
Mate, you’re defending your fantasies across several threads, it’s deranged.
I’d suggest the best option is for you so send Wally a few of your seeds, as he has the climate, to grow out.
No? As Jimi sang, “castles made of….”

I didn`t just stay with him and his wife .
I lived in his town on and off for about 5 years .We had land and I was planning on going to live there permanently .

Then the poor bastard tried to grow some Jack Herer in his yard and caught an auto immune disease from soil bacteria .
I spoke to him from his hospital bed not long before they turned off his life support .
