Fresh Kava Root

[Uncle. S]

Hi guys, i have given in to the fact that i personally can't grow kava in perth, so i munched on the root of my dead plant and experienced amazing numbness in my mouth followed by a great feeling of clear head relaxation.

So i am wondering if anyone is selling any fresh root? If you have some dried stuff i'd love to hear from you as well, but fresh whole root would be great.

Cheers!

just for your reference, Kava is scheduled S4 nationally. This means supply without prescription is illegal. Similarly, possession without script is like possession of any other prescription drug - illegal. Not that I am aware of the possession side of things being enforced anywhere yet, but just letting you know the law.

Furthermore kava is also a scheduled drug of abuse in WA.

Stupid stupid laws, but just wanted to make sure you are aware.

Oh what??? Is this recent or can we still bring small amounts in with luggage?

check the legals forum for all the federal kava law changes - there are 3 or 4 threads on the issue.

the WA state scheduling is at least as old as SAB.

edit- dont mind me I just saw the other post on same subject

shit aye.. I still thought you could personally bring back 2kg in your luggage?

EDIT: looks like you can to me

Importation of Kava

Incoming passengers who are over the age of 18 years are allowed to bring 2 kg of kava into Australia in their accompanied baggage.
