Thailand’s Medical Cannabis Sales Launching in July
Thailand’s state-of-the-art, multi-million dollar weed farm ran by the government is on track to have 2,500 bottles of medical cannabis ready for distribution.
The move comes after Thailand legalized medical marijuana in March.
The 140 weed plants in the growing facility are expected to be ready for extraction of CBD and THC oils to help medical patients suffering from certain conditions.

Thailand is the first and only country in Asia to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes.
