Not sure where best to put this but sure will be ok, here, if mods want shift to relevent section.

Got a few scores out here of varying quality, first was bit seedy but tolerance was down so worked fine. Second looked brown ish and pressed but was better quality heavy eyed smoke and lots of giggles. Third is shown in pics didn't get any pics of others sorry, will add more to this thread as they turn up, in different part of asia at the moment and no luck so far. Third score as shown in pics was not very strong but tolerance would have been up as had been smoking everyday before picking up this bag. Cost about £3 for about 7-10g. All in plastic cellophane sealed bags like you get fags in. Not sure if clip bags are expensive or what seems like its packaged in a factory type operation, similar to how i got thailand 8 odd years ago.



I love Asia

Where in Laos are you man? I've spent a good bit of time out there.

Would that be around the world in 80 buds then EF?

I'm envious, would love to take an asian smokin tour, don't forget to save a few of those beans you keep findin in the weed, will prolly grow a lot tastier when grown indoors with hydro etc.

Enjoy

Yep that about sums it up derek!!

Not kept any beans as passing bordering crossings and customs and got to go aus and their customs seem nasty.
Also is sativa genetics i think and i only do guerllia so doubt i could make use of them. I don't waste thou always place in some soil and hope, may make a nice surprise for someone.

Anyone know about asia growing season??
Do they have a certain grwoing season out here or is it anytime of year, daylight hours don't shift around like ours do. Is it after rainy season or plant when that starts so budding once it drys out. I want to see the plantation...

The best places for herb are near the northern border with Yunnan. Me and Mrs Notts found the best stuff around the Nong Keor area. I still have some of the seeds from up there and it's some of the best sativa I've ever come across (in many years in that part of the world). It takes a long time to finish though (up to 17-18 wks) and reaches anti-indoor height.

Elephant-

Most of SE asia doesn't really have a growing season as such. The closer you get to the equator the less of any sort of season you have. On the equator there are 12hrs day, 12 hrs night all of the time. It does mean that you can run them at 12/12 most if not all of the way through their cycle though.

I never got further north than Luang, next time i guess.

Cheers for the season info

excellent coffee and croissants in laos and the lack of a mention for "beer laos" is a shocking ommission imo .. probably one of the best beers i've ever imbibed ..

p.s. .. we left laos via a slowboat up the mekong river into thailand .. try and avoid the seats nr the engine is my advice

Ha, yes. Avoid the seats altogther if you can and get a seat on a bamboo mat on the floor of the boat with the locals- looks uncomfortable but is much better than several hours/ two days on a wooden bench built for someone much smaller and more flexible than the average Fallang (especially if you are over six foot like me). You're right- beer Laos is a great asian beer. Second only to Bintang (national beer of Indonesia) imo.

I'm getting misty-eyed just thinking about it all.

Not a coffee drinker but like a good cup of tea which is near impossible to find anywhere in asia, came close today but not like home! Yep loved the Beer Laos better than Chang, 333 and Saigon, also cheers in cambodia was good for the money but lao does take it, got the t-shirt to show my support!

No slow boat thankfully, sounds scenic but overcrowded and uncomfy from what i hear but what transport is not here. Bet its more relaxing than some nuts mini van driver over taking at every slight chance even blind corners etc many near misses in one journey, canadians next to me were freaking out big time, think that helped chill me out watching her freak and moan non stop. But i did want to kill her by the end!

Will keep my eyes peeled for the bintang must be tasty tack. Is it just in indonesia or will i see it south thailand, malaysia?

Got skanked the other night with some sort of leaves, was in dark on beach and didn't check it over as bit para etc just wanted out of situation. Smoke some pipes for peace of mind, well sort of peace of mind, but is waste of time not ganja man . check pic Was in usual sealed cellophane but not such neat job as other scores. Cost £12

Then tonight sorted a score with bloke but he was going to return, was with misses and got para about set-up so bailed, better safe than sorry i guess!! Had not paid so nothing lost. Been reading "Damage Done" by Warren Fellows good book but gives you a scare. I no his was a different scale but still.



May have something sorted in a few days off with easyriders and he said should be able to help me out, i hope so.

Hope your all not to cold in the uk

In a bit
