Delta County Sheriff Fred McKee has announced he will arrest anyone growing more then 30 plants in his county. The information concerning the adjoining sheriffs joining forces comes from a family member who is a DEA agent as some on you know.

As I stated a while back this 70% number that the state came up with is going to bite some dispencaries and contract growers in the ass.
Until I see a quote from him, I'll assume he was talking about a single particular person. As in, if I want to grow my own pot, the max number of plants I can have are my 6 and 5 patients (30) for 36 total.

Personally, I wouldn't grow more than 36 plants, with half in veg. But I am not even sure what constitutes a plant. If I take cuttings from a plant is each cutting a plant before it's rooted and established? The language is pretty murky there too.

Again, I think as long as you aren't bothering anyone, the sheriff wouldn't have a reason to bother you and come count your plants.

As long as people have the money to pay the fees, licenses, increased cost of grow space etc, then this won't have much of a negative effect for someone like me. The only people impacted are large scale illegal home grows who don't want to pay the increased costs of doing business. The large scale home grows who wished to remain compliant probably spent the money and got compliant. I have a feeling those people might be okay with these new regulations.

I'm all for people having a lot of money entering this business. Dealing with drug dealers was always a drag from my memories of it.

The Sheriff of Delta County stated in the local news paper that anyone caught growing more then 30 plants be it a caregiver or dispencary would be arrested. This came from when a unknown Denver Lawyer spoke with him concerning a old green house that a client wanted to rent and turn into a medical marijuana growing area. It is now being said that surrounding sheriffs in adjoining counties such a mesa etc will also join forces with Delta county sheriffs and start Rating: 5
