If I remember correctly BI has issued like 7000+ licences. I went there to get mine. Maui has more than 1000. Oahu has like 700 and Kauai has 200 or so. Also on the Big Island there are doctors that hand them out like candy.


You can get your licence through any willing doctor on any island. On your licence you can declare yourself both a patient and a caregiver. So licences that are issued on the Big Island can be used wherever you tell the state where your plants are.
