Starting Thursday, Thailand has legalized the cultivation and consumption of low-THC cannabis (under 0.2% THC) strictly for medical use. This landmark decision makes Thailand the first Southeast Asian nation to partially decriminalize cannabis, although recreational use remains prohibited. Individuals can now register to grow up to six cannabis plants at home. Experts caution against high-THC use, linking it to cognitive issues and psychosis. The industry is projected to reach $661 million in 2024, indicating significant growth potential, despite ongoing restrictions on public consumption and higher THC levels.
