Which particular dispensaries are you talking about and where are they.

To me just getting my medical license puts me on the list. I resisted until the helicopters hovered over my plants and you could see the faces of the people in the chopper counting my plants. I got a license the next day. Now I am on the list even if I never go to a dispensary. I have gone to several dispensaries mainly to get clones and occasionally try new strains. It is pretty hard to come by quality clones in your chosen variety without going to a dispensary. I trade clones with a couple of my friends but that is a very small circle and does not provide that many strains.
