Hello world,
Hi Elmanito,
I love outdoor growing!....:>)
I have the feeling I am running from one emergency room to the other at the moment.
Hanging om the phone half of the day, running from one place to the other to meet people and to share new information.
Tomorrow a commision is presenting a report that will advice the gouvernement to change the drugspolicies drasticly, but coffeeshops will stay.
Which coffeeshops the report doesn't say ofcourse...
Tomorrow also the viewing of the Cannabis Tribunal DVD and an information booklet.
So tomorrow running between The Hague and Amsterdam.
I want to get my hands on that report...
Meanwhile the summer is continuing...
today 27 degrees and the forecast for tomorrow 30!!
Swetting hot, but the plants love it and drink a lot at the moment.
Also got new neighbours today. Nice student couple, very relaxed...

Members-only cannabis club won't pass the test in Europe
Published: 3 July 2009 10:33 | Changed: 3 July 2009 11:56
The committee on drugs policy recommends making the coffee shops members-only clubs, and experimenting with legal cannabis production. Neither will pass the European test.
EDITORIALWe can't go on like this, but where do we go from here? That has been the miserable state of the Dutch policy on drugs for years. Supporters of prohibition and tolerance have each other pinned down.
They know that the production of cannabis invites crime, that the Netherlands has become a large-scale exporter of cannabis, that cannabis consumption leads to children dropping out of school, and aggravates social problems, and home-growing runs down neighbourhoods.
The once carefree subculture of soft drugs has become a tough business. "It's a mess", Labour member of parliament Lea Bouwmeester said this week as she introduced a last-minute proposal to legalise the production of cannabis in an attempt to save the coffee shops. True to custom, the government set up a commission in the hope of clearing the trenches of the drugs debate. That commission has now given its recommendations. The message is clear: the current tolerance policy has become untenable. But the commission doesn't have a miracle solution either. How could it when we live in a borderless corner of the European Union? The commission too is balancing between the need to protect small-scale private users, and the need to fight corruption of the system.
The committee rightly puts soft drugs in a larger context by including alcohol in the debate and recommending a minimum age of 18 for both substances. This is in line with new insights about the effect of both THC and alcohol on the undeveloped brain. In short, the longer consumption of THC or alcohol are put off, the better.
Alcohol and drugs will come to play a role in the lives of many, but that consumption should be allowed to begin at a young age is an indefensible position. A change in mentality is needed among parents, schools, civil society and small businesses.
As far as the coffee shops are concerned, the committee is recommending to lock the door except for registered members. These "cannabis clubs" would cater only to local users. But it is hard to see how people from other EU countries could be legally banned from becoming members. Such a measure would have a discouraging effect for as long as it takes the EU court in Luxembourg to declare it illegal.
The committee is also recommending experimenting with legalised production of cannabis in order to decriminalise the supply chain of the coffee shops. It is not a new idea. But UN and EU rules only allow cannabis production for scientific or medicinal use, or in small quantities for personal use. The Dutch government ordered a study in 2005 to look into the legal possibility of allowing small-scale cannabis production for the coffee shops. The answer was crystal clear: EU law doesn't allow for it. Solutions like these require a political consensus at the European level. It requires an answer to the question whether cannabis use for adults is socially acceptable. The questions is too large for the Netherlands to be able to answer it on its own. And this sounds good Feature: Marijuana Legalization Legislation in the Works in Portuga lhttp://stopthedrugwar.org/chronicle/592/portugal_marijuana_legalization_bill
GA just one quick question are all the coffee shops pulling together on this one or not? as surly they all realise, Those cd are really into messing up your country.What do they want aload of smack heads or what.They keep going on about organized crime why do they let people there grow a few plants or a certain size area indoor , that you stip crime.Let everyone who grows have a license and have there grow checked by a fireman .In a old red eye mag AGA some brit wrote a really brilliant article on all i have said i will dig it out .As if what he said could be put into pratice ,it would stop the organized crime . And the coffee shop would still get stock and if anything better stock.

Hi HR,
Coffeeshops are here to stay... The social function of the coffeeshops will remain untouched.
Today there was even a shop owner that advised the major to start glasshouses to provide the shops...
The major was open for the idea, but first the law needs to be changed then, she said.
And under supervision of the Dutch state they like to start experiments with the backdoor.
But it's all step by step, but you are right the cd tries to strangle the coffeeshops.
So till the next elections not realy much will change.
In Portugal they start already to talk about legalizing own use, growing and selling Cannabis!!
So a lot is going on and there is still a ray of light at the end of the tunnel.
The governement likes to go back to smaller shops for local users.
I still don't believe that the pass system will realy work. The law on the privacy makes that hard...
But still the governement have to respond...
In september the governement will come with the new drugs nota.
Political english is pritty tuff to me.
I also don't want this thread realy to become too political.
If there are still questions, you can always drop a pm.
I understand your questions well.....
Your Music festival was the bomb....
Michael Franti thank you bro for your music and making every concert a party!!
Sweet dreams world...

Hello green friends,
Thanks for the compliments and sharing guys....
Paddi as you can see at the last picture the Morning Glory is climbing, but not flowering yet. It can happen any moment!!
The sugar snaps are flowering also...
The last 2 days have been grey and rainy, 18 degrees.
A little too cold for this time of the year.
The plants needed the rain after a couple of weeks with no rain.
It looks like at least 2 are coming out purple!!
All are female. The Afghan Peace in the toilet bowl is a female as well!!
The summer started good and it looks like the coming days the temps are rising again uptill 25 degrees.
All started to flower now.
It Looks like they will be ready half of september.
Can't hardly wait for the sweet smell of the flowers!!
Peace, G.A.
