How many plants??

[tacman7]

So this is California law question...

My mother and wife live on the same property as I do and I'm thinking since I'm their caregiver we should be allowed 18 flowering plants, is that right? I still have less than 12 now but I want to do some cloning.


So extending that...

If I set up a grow box for my daughter here (she lives elsewhere) could I add 6 more?

Is there a limit to how many you can be a caregiver for?

How do the guys who supply the dispensaries grow?

Would I need to form some sort of co op for my friends that I can grow for?

Any info appreciated, Thanks.

:thumbsup:Hi Tacman7, yes you can have 6 mature (flowering) plants for each person on the property and 6 (vegetative) immature plants per patient. I would simply keep copies of 'reqs' handy. Many say they post them, I would not. We get the Santa Ana's and that can be a problem.

:jointsmile:If you want to grow for someone off the property it would be in your best interest to get your 'County' registration or someone on your property to be registered. Riverside gives a break in the fee that is handsome for disabled, etc. That is a 'Free Pass' so to speak from legal problems. The Registration is a pre-approval for growing and possessing. My email addy is in my profile, email me. You may possess 1/2 pound per patient. If police are called because of something else or a 'snoopy' neighbor, they already know you are growing and will not do anything to you or put you through the 'paces!' Happy Growing! :rasta: pr

:thumbsup:Hi there tacman7,Spoke to the people in the trenches and the information for Riverside County has changed. To be safe, they recommend you have 6 mature plants or 12 immature ones. No longer both! That remains a high amount, either way! The office to Register to grow has changed and suggested you phone (888) 358-7932 to get the New address for Registration. You may want to verify the plant count, as well. As, I do understand it to be 6 mature and certain count of immature, according to the 'growers' I talked with last summer, that is what they do. New move, maybe new rules. I was told from the person that knows everyone in the community and he said to play it safe: 6 mature OR 12 immature (to allow for male culling, I suspect).:jointsmile:Real excited for you. Remember, they do give discounts for disabled, low income and request that if it you qualify to save $. Riverside has the biggest break in price for this, I think it is under $50 when I checked last summer, that is a nice discount. San Bernardino does little in that area.Hope this information will help others here, as well.Really think you are special to grow for patients and be so dedicated! If there is anything I may help with, please let me know!Happy Growing :rasta: pr

So sorry, tried to edit. Don't know why it posted as all one paragraph, as that is not what I wrote.

The plant count is Per Patient! 6 patients 36 plants! And tried to clarify it a bit more on post. Hope you understand it. :rasta: pr

I ran across this which is interesting...

In general, the courts have held that cannabis clubs cannot serve as legal "primary caregivers" for large numbers of patients. Some persons have claimed caregiver status while growing for multiple numbers of patients on the theory that they are providing for their patients' health or safety. This defense has been successful in court for caregivers growing for small numbers of patients. However, it was rejected by a state court of appeals in the Peron decision, where the court held that Peron's San Francisco Cannabis Buyers' Club could not reasonably claim to function as a "primary caregiver" for its 8000 clients.
