There's an interesting dynamic playing out. Commercial growers (or retailers, or MMCs or whatever word you choose) like Kathleen want the freedom to operate without state regulation, as caregivers do. Meanwhile, you and other caregivers want patient and plant counts removed so they can serve an unlimited number of patients, as MMCs do. Each group wants to enjoy the benefits of the other, but is not willing to accept the limitations. Irony.

AGAIN you FALSELY call me a commercial grower! Where is the justice in this? When will these slander posts be deleted? Is Cannabis.com permitting slander?

And it's clear you High P do not read the newspapers or the application or your a federal agent. One of my MAJOR problems with the language in 1284 is that it requires caregivers who have storefronts to grow WAY TOO MANY PLANTS for me ( or most) to feel safe from the feds.

Targeting dispensaries

"Most dispensary owners are caregivers for dozens or even hundreds of patients, and if they were forced to grow enough marijuana to supply 70 percent of their patients, the number of plants could grow quite high. Kathleen Chippi, owner of Nederland dispensary One Brown Mouse, says she serves 1,500 patients and thinks that requirement will expose her to federal raids, which tend to target grows with more than 100 plants.

â??Theyâ??re forcing us to have enough plants to supply 1,500 patients,â?� Chippi says. â??Iâ??m frightened of the fact that Iâ??m going to be forced to grow. I personally have less than 99 plants. Iâ??m not going to go above 99 plants, because the federal government is going to come bust me. ... Theyâ??re setting us all up to be out of federal compliance.â?�
