Ganja in Kon Tum, Vietnam - ma story

Hi, folks! Today I plan to share my rasta-experience after visiting infinite party Kon Tum in Vietnam. Brief conclusion - for some reason it’s not easy to get really good🍀cannabis buds or hash in Kon Tum in an “oldschool way”, but options do exist. Below I describe what is going on with weed in Kon Tum.

Got back home from Kon Tum just 2 days ago, so writing this post with fresh memory smoking a small joint of white widow strain. Had an amazing stay in Kon Tum that would never be so cool without sex, drugs and rock’n’roll smelly ganja buds.

Local Attitudes Toward Cannabis in Kon Tum

Just because cannabis is strictly regulated in Kon Tum doesn’t mean the locals are strongly opposed to it. In fact, most people in Kon Tum don’t seem to care too much about marijuana use. Of course, it’s wise to follow some basic rules, like not smoking in public. But even if someone notices you, it’s unlikely they’ll see it as a big deal.

Joe was cool enough to invite me to a low-key sesh at his spot — just some homies, beer, weed, and the PS5. Straight up, I felt like I hit the jackpot. Dude even became my plug in Kon Tum while I was in town, so I was never dry and had my weed handy. He told me as long as you keep it cool, the locals are down with the herb. But like he said — don’t be stupid, and don’t carry more than 10g unless you’re lookin’ to have a bad day.

Weed Laws in Vietnam: The Real Deal

Alright, let’s break it down — Vietnam ain’t playin' with their weed laws. If you’re thinkin' you can just stroll into a shop and cop some high-THC weed in Kon Tum like you do in the Netherlands, nah fam, think again. You won’t find any legit spots sellin' anything with enough THC to get you lifted. You might see some medical stuff, but that CBD ain't gon' do nothin'.

Met this dude Joe in the hotel bar. He’s been around the Kon Tum block, knows what’s up with the ganja scene out here. Turns out, while the rules are strict on paper, the cops ain't always on it like that.

What Happens If You Get Caught with Weed?

In Kon Tum, if you have a little bit of weed with you (less than 10 grams), you probably won’t get into big trouble. The police might take it away, but they usually won’t arrest you. It’s still a good idea to be careful and not smoke cannabis in public in Kon Tum.

Coppin' Weed in Kon Tum: The New Wave

So here’s the scoop on how folks are gettin' their green in Kon Tum. Joe gave me some info — big-time cannabis dealers are all about that darknet life, coppin' their supply from shady onion sites like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They flip it to locals and tourists alike. But if you’re just in Kon Tum for a few days, tryin' to navigate the darknet and waitin' on cannabis shipments ain't it.

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 Kon Tum.
