Photo: James Brickwood I think I am the only member of parliament in Australia to acknowledge my recreational use of cannabis. In fact, I have enjoyed the many blessings that cannabis can bestow for a lot of my adult life and have not lost my mind or become a serial killer. Indeed, I became a politician and some have even said I would not have been elected without it! Jo…

I know this is not about weed but the reason we have such prohibition is because we have given our politicians too much power.. Please sign this and tell all your friends also. Otherwise its just going to get worse.

I found that my buds tasted much better when I gave them a longer pure water flush before harvest. I they also seemed to cure better when hanged rather than in box and with all leaves near buds still on. It might also be better this time of year rather than in hotter part of summer when it was dry and they got dry faster.

The Queensland government has taken another step towards approving the use of medicinal cannabis, with a new bill set to establish the framework for the prescription, dispensing and administration of the drug. The bill was announced by Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, who said she had been "moved by the stories of families with young children with epilepsy, suffering life-threatening seizures, and what they go through on a daily basis". http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/content/dam/images/g/m/m/q/1/7/image.related.articleLeadwide.620x349.goqgaf.png/1462840601209.jpgPremier Annastacia Palaszczuk says the medicinal marijuana bill is not a "green light for the recreational u…

Some of you probably know that Matt and Elizabeth Pallett provided vital medication to a lot of very sick people and saved lives. They did so without any aim to profit, gave medication away when it was necessary, and took the financial burden on themselves to keep others alive, out of pain, etc. Then they got busted. They of course refused to have a magistrate preside over them. Outside of Common Law Courts with actual jury trials, our current courts are a combination of admiralty courts and courts designed to deal with civil/business affairs. This is a dodgy situation. These courts never had that legal authority, but pretending they did sped up the court system to no en…

"The Australian Medicinal Cannabis Observatory is an academic group of scientists, pharmacists and medical professionals, who are interested in the 'hows' and 'whys' of medicinal Cannabis use in Australia; working in collaboration with United in Compassion. We are interested in your opinions if you are using, intend to use, or have ever used Cannabis for medicinal purposes. As a highly motivated group of patients, we know that you want and need more information about medicinal Cannabis. We feel that an appropriate starting point is not to repeat what is already known, but perhaps to examine and share current practices; i.e. how YOU use Cannabis medicinally, wi…

Doctors and the Liberal Opposition in South Australia are keen for the state to take another look at legalising medicinal use of marijuana. On Tuesday Victoria passed laws to allow children with severe epilepsy to use medicinal cannabis from next year, and New South Wales is conducting a trial for patients suffering vomiting and nausea as a result of chemotherapy. SA Opposition Leader Steven Marshall said South Australia was "well behind best practice". "South Australia has been absolutely dragging the chain on this one ... the rest of the country are looking at this opportunity to relieve people, in exceptional circumstances," he said. He urged SA Health Minister Jack Sn…

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!
