Not sure all the contracted growers could pass the Key application process and criteria was my point. But if the state determines that they are more than just hourly, it may be a required process.

so if a dispensary wanted to pay all of their help bonuses (lots of businesses do) based on performance, does that mean EVERY employee is key?
Colorado hard at it, devaluing the labor of its workers. GREAT,

just how does the dispensary - grower relationship work? If I furnish everything related to the grow like the building rent, utilities, sundries, all the labor and nurturing to bring in a consistent crop, fill out the paperwork as a key person, then what does that do for me? Does it make me part owner of the dispensary? According to the IRS, A GROWER CANNOT BE A SOLE PROPRIETOR.
Someone please enlighten me cuz I think I'm getting screwed. One other thing, how do the dispensaries pay for product. consignment, 10 percent or better up front? Anyone know?

A Master Grower should have at least a decade of experiance with the art and have a deep understanding of the chemistry of growing. They should also the experiance of cycling out over and over. In my opinion it takes at least one year to understand even the basic concepts of growing and to really get the general feel of the plant. Also, being able to adjust to the changing seasons is always a challenge. It takes many more years to be to develop that natural eye to know what the plant is lacking and what needs to be done. Then there is tackling many different strains and each individual needs they have. Also, each grower will develop their own methods to produce thier meds, that is unlike most others (usually), and that alone takes years.
My point is not that is takes everyone a decade to be a pro, especially in a warehouse where you learn that much more since its large scale and more hours put in. But it does take time.
Master growers in my opinion should be paid 75 to 150k depending on experiance and performance cuz lets face it they are the head honcho. No good meds no store no biz. No more important job then that.
Managers - 20.00 an hr
Ass Growers 15.00
Maintenance - 13.00
Trimmers 13.00

It depends.... if you are growing for a MMC using their established system, then it depends on your level of responsibility. If you partnered with a MMC and brought in your own system with years worth of experience running it then you should get a % of the wholesale value of what you grew.
In my case, if the system I set up and ran didn't produce we would all be out of business. I am not going to be in that sort of position of responsibility without SIGNIFICANT compensation, fuck hourly.
