Nice pictures!

What's that white stuff on the ground? ;)
 
Interesting pics bud. Thanks for posting. Is codeine legal to sell over the counter there? It used to be in this country.

That's strange as it's against Federal law. Years ago we could buy codeine syrup or pills over the counter then the drug companies got the law changed so they could sell it by prescription only at a ridiculous price. Many years ago you could buy all the dope that's illegal now over the counter. Coca Cola originally had cocaine in it - hence the Coca in the name. It was created by a pharmacist. When I was a kid pot used to grow wild in the vacant lots in the town where I lived but nobody cared - it was just a weed and it wasn't the big deal it is now.

In the United States, codeine is regulated by the Controlled Substances Act. It is a Schedule II controlled substance for pain-relief products containing codeine alone or more than 90 mg per dosage unit. In combination with aspirin or acetaminophen (paracetamol/Tylenol) it is listed as Schedule III or V, depending on formula.
Preparations for cough or diarrhoea containing small amounts of codeine in combination with two or more other active ingredients are Schedule V in the US, and may be dispensed in amounts up to 4 fl. oz. per 48 hours without a prescription.

Codeine is an alkaloid found in opium :razz:in concentrations ranging from 0.3 to 3.0 percent. While codeine can be extracted from opium, most codeine is synthesized from morphine through the process of O-methylation.
