Care Giver Questions...

[throatstick]

I did hear a little bird talking, that would suggest they will be keeping tabs and I would not want to be a large scale growing opereations

what would that little birdy call a large opereation? if 1 was to stick to the 5 + them thats 36 right there.what about the centers that pay the fee and are legal? it's ok if they have 500 plants?i mean they would have to just to keep up with demand since they have to do 70% in house.sounds like they will use this bill to start hitting the little guy hard....i see bad things headed to colorado.....:wtf::

No sure what they were calling a big operation. However, you have to remember one thing. The state of Colorado can tell you that you can grow one plant of 50 million plants. As to the DEA all marijuana is against the law. Right now with Obama in office the DEA is turning a blind eye to mom and pop. However, when the next pres comes into office that can change at a drop of the hat.

I am willing to bet the DEA will step in if for no other reason just to let people know who is really in control and they have the final say so. Look at CA after all these years DEA still pops in and arrest growers now and then

I am not a grower but what does not make sense to me is the rule that disp. must produce 70 pct of its medicine...but a care giver cannot sell to a disp. any left ovewr or extra so how is the disp. supposed to supplement the other 30 pct. ?

i guess they want them to go on the street and buy it from an undercover leo....you know cause this bill is about the people that voted on mmj.all they wanted to do is put it back in our hands......wow this shit makes me sick...

They are allowed to buy the remaining 30% from there competation "other dispencaries" Tell me that is no a freaking joke

Your 100% this bill did not but hurt 99% of the people involved with Marijuana. It helped the gov and the big money backed dispencaries. It did nothing but hurt mom and pop, the caregivers and the patients and in the long run will cost the state millions in tax revenue

The biggest issue is that patients need 100% of their medicine afforded to them by the constitution. This is like if you went to a pharmacy with a prescription for 100 valium, but they only gave you 80 because they had to sell the other 20 to another patient. Does not make sense.

Looks like my grow -op plans are canned then. I had hoped to be able to produce small quantities of high quality bud for up to 8 patients then sell the rest to the dispensaries. Being that it would be a home grow operation, I'm even more out.

Here's whats against me now:
Broomfield will not allow dispensaries. SO I assume if i try to get a Lic to grow in my home, it will be shot down for "good cause"
Even if I could grow, I now have nobody to sell my extra crop to.

I think of the mom and pop growers as micro brewers in beer. It's always better beer. The people care more about what they are making then the mass producers. Thats why I'm willing to pay a little more for a 6pack. Also with a micro brew, you sometimes have to look at a few different places to find it stocked.

The laws need to be written to allow "micro - growers" to produce and sell to dispensaries. Patients should be allowed to choose where their MMJ comes from and how it has been cultivated.


I think the smarter move here would have been to set up an organization to test MMJ and qualify a crop for Medicinal purposes. If the crop passes, it would then be weighed and taxed by crop yield. Not that i like the idea of taxing the shit out of us, but I can see that the State is trying to figure out how to make a buck here too.
