Australia's Green Odyssey: Unravelling the Cannabis Tapestry from Coast to Capital
Hello, Oz! The globe is buzzing about cannabis legalisation, and Australia isn't behind. We’re diving deep into our relationship with this green herb.

Economic Implications: Where’s the Money?

Australia pumps $300 million yearly into policing cannabis, three-quarters of our illegal drug enforcement budget. Beyond finances, our youth face future shadows from minor cannabis offences. Interestingly, during '92-'93, such minor offences made up over 5% of reported crimes.

Canberra's Move: Shaking the Status Quo

A year back, Canberra revolutionised its stance:

Possession limit? 50 grams.
Grow it, but only two plants per person, and only outdoors.
But, buying seeds and selling? Still off-limits. And yes, Commonwealth laws still frown upon possession.

Diving Into Data: The Australian Cannabis Scene

Stats reveal that across regions like New South Wales to Tasmania, minor cannabis offences dominate. Meanwhile, Canberra's habits remain steady post-law changes, according to the Ecstasy and Related Drugs Reporting System.

The Synthetic Curveball

Remember, synthetic cannabis ≠ organic cannabis. They differ majorly in composition and effects.

Our Cannabis Odyssey: The Way Ahead

Canberra's pioneering stance shows our evolving cannabis relationship. Labor MLA Michael Pettersson believes we need a holistic approach, not just law tweaks. Australia's at a critical cannabis crossroads, with robust debates and an attentive public. What's next? Stay tuned, Oz!

Medical Flower Review - Endoca Apples and Bananas
Bag Appeal - 7/10 

- Bud structure is well developed sizey buds with rounded foxtails off the ends. The 10g jar came with majority mediums to bigs with maybe 1 or 2 smalls. The buds are pretty frosty and has been trimmed in a way the hasn't damaged or squashed the trichomes like a lot of the stuff I have seen on the medical market. 

Cure - 9/10

- Cured really well. Still sticky on fingers and the trichomes are developed nicely. Burns well with white clouds. I rolled about a 1 gram fatty and stayed lit the whole time. I though it may have still been a bit too sticky to burn well full green but was excitedly surprised by the way it burnt for how sticky it was. 

Nose - 10/10

- You open the bag and you get punched with a strong sour fruity armour along with hints of gas. My room stank of buds the whole day. One of the fresher buds i smelt from the medical market. 

Potency, terps and effects 8/10 

- 23% THC, 4% terps. Not as strong as some of the medical strains out there but what I have noticed with this one is the high has more legs than most of the high THC strains. Long lasting effects. Feelings were energising, happy, clear headed without the crazy raciness/shakiness of some of the more pure sativa's.  I use it for my ADHD as well as my pain. This strain has been great for me to focus during the day but I don't think its really done much for my pain... Time to add another strain to my stable for pain. I would love any recommendations please?? 

All in all one of my favourite medical strains yet.

Improving OZ Stoners: Let Your Voice Be Heard!
High there, fellow Stoners!

I hope everyone's doing okay amidst all the craziness that's been happening over the past few years. It's been a long time since OZ Stoners started, and we've grown quite a bit since then. But we've been hearing feedback that the site's structure can be a bit overwhelming and confusing to navigate.

So, we want to open up a discussion and poll to gather your thoughts and suggestions on how we can improve the structure of our community forums. We think that consolidating some of the forums and using tags to help with searching topics will make things easier for you. This way, you won't have to worry about topics getting lost or posted in the wrong categories.

We'd love to hear what you think about this idea and any other suggestions you may have. Your input is valuable to us, and we want to make sure that OZ Stoners is a great place for all of us to connect and engage with each other. So, please take a moment to vote in the poll and let's work together to make our community even better!
