Good news indeed, any idea how long it will take for this legislation to become law? Thinking about becoming a professional caregiver......hmmm

I guess that right around the middle of March daylight / dark is about 12/12. And I'm sure strains have a lot to do with it. Can anyone tell me roughly when would be the beginning of what I might call an outdoor vegging season?

anybody that has asperations about growing professionally for the state better tighten up their shit. You can bet your sweet bippy that all medical cannabis will be tested for THC/CBN, mold, bugs fungus,etc.,etc.. Right now is the time to get your eggs all lined up. You can bet that once Hawaii opens up to medical cannabis dispensaries. That a professional medical lab specializing in Cannabis testing will pop up real fast in Honolulu, or Hilo.

Anybody want in? "RIU Hawaii Growers Collective" lol. I think it's safe to say that we'd have a pretty diverse inventory. And lots of meds.

So how do you guys think this will play out?

Another proposal, from Sen. J. Kalani English, would establish state-run dispensaries, called “compassion centers.” He said the state would charge large fees for licenses to dispense or grow cannabis and would tax the profits

Will the established business models from Cali pop up over here? Who will grow for the compassion centers? Will the clandestine Uncles come out? How much is a "large fee"?

Sheck?

Next week I'm going to Oakland to see firsthand the established industry. Heard it's nuts over there, they deliver meds, growers insurance....

Medical Marijuana Expansion Proposed

Senators Want More Patients To Have Easier Access To Medical Pot


Daryl Huff KITV 4 News Reporter

POSTED: 6:16 pm HST January 21, 2011
UPDATED: 6:43 pm HST January 21, 2011


HONOLULU -- Between deep pulls on her glass smoking bong, Teri Heede, 55, said she needs about an eighth of an ounce of marijuana every day to control multiple sclerosis symptoms. But bad weather and pests make her back yard pot patch unreliable.“I have to find it on the street and that is dangerous,” Heede said. “And I always get bad product.”Hawaii’s 10-year-old law limits patients to four mature plants and says a caregiver can only raise plants for a single patient. But because of the difficultly patients, particularly in urban areas, have maintaining adequate, legal supplies, Sen. Will Espero, public safety chairman, said the legislature is ready to loosen the limits.“It’s just a matter of what numbers we would think would be best,” Espero said.Espero introduced his first proposal on the first day of the legislature. It would increase the number of plants allowed each patient from four to 10. It would also allow a caregiver to grow plants for as many as four patients at once, and those patients could reimburse the caregiver for expenses.Police point out that a caregiver for four people who is also a patient could grow up to 50 plants at once.Other elements of Espero’s proposal would keep private patients’ addresses and the location of their plants and allow a doctor other than the patient’s primary physician to certify the patient has a chronic illness or condition that makes them eligible for medical cannabis.Another proposal, from Sen. J. Kalani English, would establish state-run dispensaries, called “compassion centers.” He said the state would charge large fees for licenses to dispense or grow cannabis and would tax the profits.He would also allow patients from other states to purchase from the Hawaii compassion centers.“The patients need to get access to the medicine and we can create a good economic base for the general fund,” English said.Heede said she would prefer to get her marijuana from a dispensary because of more consistent quality.“They’ll test it for fungus. They’ll test it for pesticides. They’ll test it also for THC content,” Heede said. “It might cost a little more money but then we can also look maybe at some legitimate research.”A spokeswoman for the Honolulu Police Department said the department will fight the proposed changes. She said the department believes more marijuana in the community will mean more drug use, addiction and violence. It also disputes the claims of medicinal value.But Espero said most legislators have already disregarded those arguments and accept marijuana as legitimate medicine to which patients should have access. He said he also expects the new governor will be supportive of improving the law.
the police wish tobacco was illegal, so that if they smelled cigarette smoke in your home they could legitimize coming into your home and onto your property and go through your stuff looking for a notch on their arrest log. That being said I think the police will find life better when they don't have to waste time investigating someone who smoked pot and can focus on issues that actually benefit everyone in society. Its like they are saying "Don't take away the easy part of our job just because it harms the very people we are supposed to serve and protect." We need more police who care about solving crimes that actually help our businesses, our people, and our communities. More high paid quality police who enforce actual reasonable laws would be best.
