If you have a caregiver grow for you, are they supposed to give you the MMJ for free, or do you pay them for it?

Will having a MMJ card make it harder to qualify for certain insurances such as health and life?

At the dispensaries what "forms" does the MMJ come in?
I presume, there is regulat marijuana, pills... what else? and what is the "healthiest" way to take MMJ?

Thanks! :thumbsup:
Some clinics have co-op dispensaries and some growers do too. You don't usually pay directly for the medicine but you donate money the the growing and cultivation of the medicine and in return you get part of the medicine.

It's usually not a good idea to discuss the costs associated with the co-op online. If you're asking someone "how do I buy pot and how much is it going to cost" you'll probably never get a straight answer.

If you're looking for a provider you should consider attending a NORML meeting. Any of the local clinics can help you find out where and when the meetings are.

Some clinics also offer wellness meetings where you can pay a fee to learn more about how to acquire and use medicine.
