@BrikoX This is bad news. Using cannabis is stigmatized the last decennium here in the Netherlands, due to our government. With this discovery, it could become even worse! I’m a user of the so called Iriewater, ( website.suvernuver.org ) to fight my health-issues. I know this online shop is doing very well, but coffeeshops in the cities could be facing problems !
thanks for sharing this.Maybe it’s time to legalize and regulate that shit?
coffeeshops are legal and regulated
Yes, but their suppliers aren’t, and I’d guess that the issues did not originally arise in the coffeeshops
The pesticides are almost certainly the fault of the grower, but the bacteria I’m not so certain
@BrikoX Get high but laid low
