Most Cannabis research is based around the notion that any use is problematic use and estimates suggest that around 10% of people who ever consume Cannabis will become dependent. However, this research aims to explore how and why some users become dependent, but also what factors help prevent the non-dependent users from developing dependence. How much you use and how often you use it does not necessarily indicate disorder. You can use a lot, and frequently without meeting the criteria for a dependence. Even if you have never used cannabis, or use other drugs, or don't use any illicit drug your feedback is useful. If you over 18 years old, all you need to do is follow the…

I read a post today that mentioned the gateway theory which if you have been living under a rock means if you smoke pot, you'll end up on harder drugs I personally feel that statement can infact hold true, BUT only if cannabis is the very first drug you have consumed. afterall, wouldnt any drug you tried before consuming marijuana be the original gatway drug? I want to know what drug you first tried and then if you have tried any drugs after that very first time. I believe that alcohol will prove itself to be the main gateway drug, but with the wide range of members here anything is possible so it would be really good to see how this poll goes edit: the list of…

Each season brings the discovery of a novel terpenoid, new cannabinoid or receptor site, a fresh therapeutic application, refinements in lab testing or new ways of extracting cannabis essences with hyper purity. Yet, simmering in the background of these new and thrilling discoveries is a patient and far-sighted accumulation of hard, research-driven scientific data that will eventually bring greater depth to our understanding of cannabis’ origins. In recent months, Phylo…

Hey eveyone! New to the forum moved from Australia to Canada to get more knowledge and hands on experience with cannabis and growing. I've had a burning question that needs answers for, I have always been interested in the use of cannabis as medicine for healing and spiritual practices as well. I want to know when cannabis was introduced to Australia? They say hemp seed came on the first fleet but I want to know if cannabis existed in any shape or form before European settlers? Cannabis exists in every part of the damn world from China, Russia, Africa, Middle East, etc. I also want to know if aboriginals ever used cannabis or a form/similar plant for any herbal remedies.…

Hi there I am hoping to test cannabis for its medicinal properties. Particularily for Cannabidol content , otherwise known as CBD, respective to THC. There is someone I know whom is dieing from a very serious terminal illness and could benefit from the non psychoactive compound CBD from the cannabis plant that does not get you stoned. I was hoping to test some cannabis samples that have a high opportunity for being higher in ratio of CBD content respective to THC content. I was wondering if there is a lab, maybe a research lab that would use preferably gas chromatography to anaylse cannabis samples like they are doing in America and Israel but in Australia. I know…

6OZ Stoners: Charting the Rise of Australia's Premier Cannabis Community
Greetings, Stoners! The rich narrative of the Australian cannabis community, with OZ Stoners standing tall at its helm, is a blend of trials, tribulations, heartening comebacks, and the unwavering dedication of its members. Let’s delve deep into this riveting tale.
Geocities: The Digital Genesis
In the bustling digital streets of the late '90s, Yahoo Geocities stood out as a haven for burgeoning online communities. It was here, amidst this digital renaissance, that OZ Stoners planted its foundational roots. This marked the dawn of a space that would go on to become synonymous with Australian cannabis culture.
Navigating the Digital Tempests
On its journey, OZ Stoners faced formidable challenges. Between Yahoo's unpredictability and the unexpected anti-cannabis stance of titans like Meta, steering the ship required a blend of adaptability, tenacity, and foresight.
A Hiatus and the Phoenix's Ascent
Come 2022, OZ Stoners entered a period of unplanned dormancy, lasting a challenging 12 months. But, reminiscent of the legendary phoenix, this hiatus was transformed into an opportunity for rebirth. The platform underwent comprehensive upgrades, server enhancements, and a revitalising overhaul. As it emerged, it did so with a phoenix-like rise, soaring higher and brighter, dedicated to serving the community with even more zeal and purpose.
Ode to the Trailblazers
The tapestry of OZ Stoners is woven with the dedication and vision of its founding members. Their relentless drive and contributions have been the bedrock of its success. While many of these pioneers continue to shape its direction, we pause to honor those trailblazers we've lost over time. Their indomitable spirit continues to inspire and resonate within the cannabis community. - Memorial Hall
The Lighthouse of Today and Promise of Tomorrow
OZ Stoners, in the contemporary digital landscape, stands as a lighthouse for the Australian cannabis community. Beyond being a forum, it exemplifies adaptability, unity, and a shared passion. As it anchors and shapes cannabis discourse Down Under, it continually underscores the strength and beauty of collective endeavor.
As you engage with OZ Stoners, remember the sweat, tears, and dreams that built its legacy. Here’s to the cannabis community, the trailblazers of the past, and the promising horizons of the future. Cheers to shared stories and monumental growth ahead!
