I think if you want to grow for more than 5 patients you will be forced to 'team up' a dispensary as an off site grow operation.

Who's going to pay the 10K fee? I bet the farmer.

Watch the 'new gig' on the block, """Pay the 10K 'franchise growing fee' and join our dispensary and grow legally!""" And then we will TELL you what we will pay you for it.

10K at 200/zip (or less probably) will be giving a free QP to them each month to pay for that.

All of this gives so much power to the dispensaries who survive. I believe the price is going to quickly rise in the dispensaries and now they have the reasons to justify it. The ONLY thing keeping the price in check at all was the small and medium careproviders/dispensaries-pseudo or otherwise, who could kill the dispensary prices, no longer the case.

I've always believed this was about putting some power in the hands of a common man who works hard and staying away from the pharmaceuticals. The dispensaries have simply replaced them.

I feel very foolish, as I've always supported dispensarys and done business with some of the biggest, and that's who basically lobbied me out of the industry. I thought they would be a way to eventual legalization and turns out, so far, it's the exact opposite. They are the reason for all of this legislation.

I suppose it's back to the 9-5 grind and prozac.

As a small care provider I feel like they are simply ripping my pursuit of happiness from me and my patients.
