Coming to New Mexico

[boafmabalzich]

Hi everybody. I am a disabled male living in North Carolina and planning to come to New Mexico. They have been dragging their feet too long here on MMJ so it is time to leave. I have all the meical history put together for a physician to examine in NM. I have been growing for quite some time here but it is getting to dangerous and the conservatives just took over the legislature for the first time in 125 years. Time to leave. I have a couple of questions if someone would not mind answering them.

What type of time frame am I looking at from arriving in NM and getting an apartment or house to the time I can begin another grow?

If I have an excess when a grow is completed, does the MMJ law of NM allow me to sell the excess to a dispensary?

What are the costs of a license to grow for myself?

What are the costs of a caregivers license?

What are the limitations on the plants. I have 9 really incredible strains that I will be bringing?

I probably could think up a dozen more questions but I do not want to wear ya'll out. Thanks ahead for any and all help that is offered.

48 views and nobody here knows the deal with New Mexico? Am I in the pluto forum by mistake?

It normally takes about 3-4 weeks to get your card. Then to get the personal production license...it takes about 3 weeks as well. However, you can apply for both at them same time and save your self a few weeks.

Growing in an apt may be problematic as you need permission from landlord and would be unlikely given. A house may be considered more discreet etc.

Excess grow cannot be sold to dispensaries.

Plant limits for personal growth are as follows: 4 mature plants and 12 seedlings.

I beleive the cost of a personal production license is 10 or 20 dollars??

You can check out this info on the NM DOH medical cannabis website.

Hope this helps.:thumbsup:

Thank you Sandia. I have to cross New Mexico off the list then. I have no interest in living in a state where I can not sell my excess to supplimen my disability.

As far as I know,there IS NO state where you can sell your excess to a "dispensary".......colorado did away with that.

So you'd rather stay in a state that HAS no legal medical cannabis?

It would sure make communication easier if folks would include their email address in their profile info......

Bummer dude. Just a major bummer. Damn the laws all to hell:wtf:

I would prefer to be legal. My diagnosis however is terminal. I have no fear of being incarcerated because no local jail is going to undertake the financial burden of providing for me over something as petty as a personal MMJ grow. My health could literally destroy the budget of a jail in a medium sized city alone (given that a transplant became available while I was in state custody).

Given this, I would prefer to remain at least somewhat independent and suppliment my SS disability (which is barely enough to pay rent) and be in a legal state where my skills can not only help myself but others as well. I know that some states are supposed to allow "vendors" to help them with their supply. This was what I was referring to.

I wish you the best, but cant they turn you down on a transplant if you smoke, I have read of it happening to more than a few people.
Best wishes, and I think in cali you can sell your excess to the clubs if you get a special permit, but I could be totally wrong about that.
