Weed in Khulna, Bangladesh: my experience

Hi, smokers! You probably know that cannabis laws and regulations vary from one county to another, so let’s go deeper and try to understand what is going on with weed in Khulna. My post covers info about weed laws, regulations, general attitude of locals and cops, hash VS weed availability and pricing, failures and success in searching weed in Khulna.

I just got back from Khulna a couple of days ago, and as I sit here enjoying a small joint of white widow, I can’t help but reflect on the great time I had in Khulna — thanks in part to the cannabis that accompanied me on my adventures.

Where to Buy Cannabis in Khulna

So, how do you actually buy cannabis in Khulna? Simon shared some insights. Big dealers in Khulna often source their products through the darknet — using services like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They then resell the cannabis to locals and tourists. While this method is possible, it’s not really practical for short-term visitors. Navigating the darknet and waiting for a package can be complicated and time-consuming.

Usually, locals already buy weed by talking to dealers they trust through messages like Telegram or Signal with payment via cryptocurrency. Then, the weed is left in a secret spot where they can pick it up without meeting the seller in person. This is new secured way of cannabis delivery used in Khulna.

What do locals think about ganja in Khulna

The fact that cannabis is strictly regulated by f*cking officials the government does not mean that local inhabitants of Khulna are too much against weed. Mostly - they simply do not care. Of course it is better to preserve some common rules and not to smoke weed in public in Khulna, but even if someone notices you - this will not be treated as some crime or inappropriate behavior.

As I was actively asking and discussing weed - Simon invited me to his apartment for a small party that very first evening - just a couple of his rasta friends, beer, weed and PS5 - exactly what I do love😁😁😁. How lucky I was😁 Simon told he will be my weed dealer while I am here in Khulna so I had no issues with great stuff all that time.

Simon also confirmed locals are OK with weed in Khulna if you behave yourself correctly, while it’s better to avoid cops and not to have more than 10 grams in your pocket.

In one sports bar I got acquainted with Simon who moved to Khulna 3 years ago, so he knows the local drug scene. According to Simon - despite cannabis being banned according to laws, cops are generally relaxed about weed, sometimes being smokers themselves.
