You are probably aware that marijuana laws are different in different places. This article should shed light on cannabis regulations in Diyarbakir, what do local people and cops think about weed, hash availability, pricing, my own experience etc.

I have just finished my trip to Diyarbakir, stayed there for 10 days, now got back home, writing this post while memory is fresh and with a solid joint in my left hand. As a regular weed smoker I could not imagine my stay in Diyarbakir without having some weed in my pocket. Below I will outline information I found out while looking for some good smelly green buds in Diyarbakir.

Attitude of locals to cannabis in Diyarbakir

Even though high THC cannabis is strictly regulated in Diyarbakir - local inhabitants of Diyarbakir are not against it at all. Young people and tourists are top target audiences for weed dealers. This does not mean you may walk and smoke joints on the streets, but also no one will be too surprised seeing someone smoking weed.

As Steve told - even local cops in Diyarbakir sometimes use cannabis. So in general we may conclude that the atmosphere in Diyarbakir is relaxed when we speak about cannabis. Just behave correctly and watch your back - and everything should be cool.

Steve shared with me a small joint of some unknown indica strain that evening, this was exactly what I needed. We were a little bit drunk and were smoking near my hotel directly on the street near trash containers, and it seems I saw other guys doing the same on the opposite side of the street.

One joint is good - but I needed weed for the whole period of my stay in Diyarbakir , so asked Steve if he could share contacts of his cannabis dealer. The answer was negative, simply because his dealer did not accept new people. But as we became close after the joint - Steve agreed to become my dealer for the nearest days, so all my issues with weed were resolved, thanks to Steve!

Cannabis regulations in Diyarbakir, Turkey

It's crucial to emphasize that cannabis, marijuana, and hashish are strictly prohibited in Diyarbakir. You won't find coffee shops selling high-THC marijuana strains here. While medical CBD cannabis might be accessible through licensed dispensaries, it necessitates a doctor's prescription, and it's essential to note that CBD doesn't produce psychoactive effects.

While at a club, I had the opportunity to meet Steve, who relocated to Diyarbakir three years ago and is well-versed in the local drug culture. According to Steve, despite the legal prohibition of cannabis, law enforcement officers generally adopt a lenient attitude towards marijuana, with some even being cannabis enthusiasts themselves.

How not to be arrested with marijuana in Diyarbakir?

As Steve told me - for not to be arrested you can carry less than 10g of cannabis or 5g of hash. For the same purpose you should be sane and not use drugs in public places. Cops can just check if you are going to sell marijuana or not and confiscate it.

There are some possibilities that cops could try to get money from you if they catch you with weed in Diyarbakir. It is not a frequent story, but you should keep in mind that some cops prefer to force you to pay some money for your calmness. But not to propose money first because it can be regarded as a separate crime. So the easiest way is not to be caught with weed in Diyarbakir 😉.

Points to find the weed in Diyarbakir

During the time Steve had been my dealer (it was the solving of all my issues) he was telling me about how the things were going in Diyarbakir.

High rated providers in Diyarbakir buy the cannabis on darknet websites that maintain gross orders. These orders can contain a big amount of weed and hash, kilograms I think. Some websites work on small orders too, so if you are close to Tor browser working and know how to .onion sites doing - glance on thehiddenwiki.com, wait for a couple of days and get your package. This site has all the information needed about darknet.

If you're on a short vacation or a trip to Diyarbakir, obtaining cannabis through wholesale darknet websites isn't a viable option. Searching for street or park dealers remains a possibility for acquiring weed in Diyarbakir, but an increasing number of dealers are transitioning to online transactions through messaging apps and Bitcoin payments instead of cash. This approach serves as a protective measure against potential encounters with law enforcement. Crypto payments offer anonymity, and deliveries are made to specified locations without the need for in-person meetings, ensuring both you and the dealer are shielded from potential consequences.

This revelation surprised me, as I lean toward a more traditional approach and had only heard about cryptocurrencies in passing. However, these days, most young individuals, who are often the target audience for cannabis dealers, possess crypto wallets, so dealers are simply adapting to this trend. While I believe that some dealers might lose business because not all clients are familiar with cryptocurrencies, Steve pointed out that nowadays, if you don't use crypto yourself, you likely have a friend who does. In such cases, you can simply transfer money from your card to your crypto-savvy friend, and they can conduct the cryptocurrency transaction on your behalf. This advice from Steve got me thinking, and I realized I also have such a friend, so I followed his suggestion.
