Hello transiten. I made this ointment with coco oil and cannabis (dried flower buds). The THC needs an oil to attach to. The plant is illegal in my country, too. The cannabis oil with an average % of THC is illegal, too. On the Internet you can buy cannabis oil (legal), but of course this has not the same properties, as it hasn't got the same % of cannabinoids which are good for your health (it has only a very small proportion).
