It actually looks like they have changed the law a little. You use to not be able to consume any, which didn't make any sense.

As a ProVider I don't believe you have ever been, "Legally" able to consume any of your patients meds.
Being a provider and not a patient, you have no legal defense to do so!!

I wonder if the operative word here is obtained. What if a caregiver is growing for two people living in the same place and both are medical patients??? Does that mean they both have to keep their meds separate? How about if they are married??? Or are both considered as individual mmj patients? In my mind, obtaining and growing are two different things. The semantics can get hazy, (c) above says you can't have any the way I read it. :lol5:

Our laws here are still pretty vague. The way I read it is you could grow for yourself and someone else but you're not allowed to use any of your patients. Hopefully they'll be taking another look at this and just allow coops and dispensaries. Its really unimportant how many people you grow for as long as you have the legal authorizations for each patient.

I was quite incorrect..i am gonna have to slow down and take a look outside the box from now on..And i apologize for offending anybody in the process..The reason i seaked out a co-op was because i indeed suffer from chronic pain and was not able to get any medicine for myself or the family for a week period..the street dealers locally are overpriced and sell garbage smoke..thus forced me too find an alternative supply, which has been succesfull so far but yes illegal..
I plan on growing enough so i wont have to buy eventually but i am just not quite there yet...hopefully in october i will see that day...Ice and Hash Plant Harvest Hopefully..:stoned:

I agree. Oakland, California is doing what King County should do and others. :thumbsup:
