I'd go with your psych giving you the recommendation! Any doctor who can prescribe meds, can give you the recommendation. You do not need a state card in California- a copy of your recommendation is all you need. I don't trust my local government, so I don't have a card.

Now, I assume that you buy cannabis. Do you ever get seeds? Or just ask your friends- someone will have a few seeds they can spare. In California, you can have 6 mature plants OR 12 immature plants and 8 ounces of dried flowering tops of marijuana (bud). A few CFLs and an unused closet....and you're in business! - Granny:hippy:
