Developments in Europe's cannabis market, 2014
(May 2014) Europe has long been one of the world’s largest consumer markets for cannabis resin. The European market for cannabis is now increasingly dominated by herbal products. This change in the market shares of the two types of cannabis products is the result of a shift in how the market is supplied, driven by increased access to specialist knowledge and technology.

Only 18 million Europeans used cannabis last year? Seems accurate…
The prob is in belgium that they are maiking the law even strickter even if you are a medical user . While the rest of the world is waiking up to the fact that it could provide help for a lot of people, who are now forced to use meds that most of the time only do part of the job. And im sure taiking drugs even if it is for your pain that it will do more harm then good in the long run vs using somthing from nature.
GW Pharmaceuticals is engaged in a corrupt relationship with the British government. It has been granted an unlawful monopoly of medicinal cannabis – GW sells one 10ml bottle of Sativex to the NHS for around £175.
Pharmacologically identical products are available in medical marijuana dispensaries in the US at around $20 for a 50ml bottle!

High potency products are a result from prohibition. Smuggling alcohol makes more sense when you have vodka rather than beer. If alcohol was illegal, I would not be making beer.
Value per volume is the thing in growing and and smuggling. Street products in the final stage of distribution is most likely cut with all kinds of garbage in order to increase profits. This can be done because there is no control. Nobody represents the consumer.
Can you imagine Absolut or Chivas Regal being produced as 80% product and shop keepers watering them down to anywhere from 40% to 20% product?
what a load of misdirective crap
does alcahol made people mental?weed does not make people mental or effect the mind stupid doctors
Considering the amount of sick people that would benefit of legalization is sickening.
Doomy mood music for doomy effect… Pathetic.
Autoflowering plants does not give you an increase in yield and potency. Mostly they are looked upon as a inferior product compared to classic photosensitive plants.
Make it legal you corrupt morons
The guy with the slab of Afghani hash works for one of the biggest medical producers of cannabis in the UK, which largely exports its product. The fact he is in possession of hash suggests to me that they intend to be exporting recreational cannabis to more enlightened countries where it is now legal. I hate this hypocrisy from the UK Home Office and current government still pursuing the lost War on Drugs. The least they could’ve done is reverse the selfish, purely political reversal of cannabis classification inflicted on common sense by that dullard former prime minister Gordon Brown.
So why no acknowledgement that prohibition has created the illegal grow industry, or the fact that this industry is totally uncontrolled as a result of policy? The increase in potency likewise is clearly a product of prohibition and the lack of regulation of this massive industry?
True hash comes from the hash plant. It is related to marijuana but it is a different plant. They are giving false information by saying hash comes from the resin of marijuana. The process they are describing is called Keefer.
Thats the only thing that bothers them the synthetic part just because they can’t own the plant..GREED yet again…. lets see if the mp’s will swap their prostitutes for a fleshlight …I dont think so because nothing beats the real thing… let us grow our own. I dont want to sell it I just want to medicate my self and not fund criminal enterprises. And not take as much morphine as I do for my back pain.
Cannabis is a LEGAL plant given to us ALL mankind by nature/our creator equally , No man is above me & I am not a slave to no government or policy makers who are abusing the people of the world when this is a basic evolutionary human rights to this natural medicine . Cannabis/cannabinoids are in our DNA & our Endocannabinoid system needs cannabinoids to function correctly . Government holds no power to deny another man the right to grow or use a plant that was given to us all equally from the earth for us to use as needed . Cannabis is a legal plant & we are not slaves to the government & policy makers who take away our basic human rights to this plant to enslave us all . do we want to continue being slaves or do we want to be free to make our own choices to use a plant without criminalisation & discrimination . GW Pharmaceuticals prove that cannabis is medicine but still we have their human rights abused by people like the EMCDDA , United Nations ,Our governments , this is a crime against humanity & a crime against nature , something we must ALL fight against . No man has the right to enslave another with unjustified laws or by any other means !
