We are allowed 2.5 ounces for ourselves and each patient if we care give for, correct?

Does this mean in a locked facility or just when we are in public?

Because if we are only allowed 2.5 between our facility and our person, EVERY grower I know is breaking the rules by following the rules. Does that make any sense?

I am not trying to sound shady about this either I really think this important and I am trying to manage my risks. With just a 1 month veg plant you are easily over you 2.5 ounces after harvest and drying. And they allow you 11 more plants. So when you harvest this number of plants they legally allow you grow and it dries, you are 11 times over what you are permitted? Even crazier if you are a caregiver like me because just 12 extra plants puts you twice as much as that over. Even if you have a perpetual cycle and it is splits the plants into 3 stages, you are still harvesting 4 plants, that's 10 ounces. Your way over still..

Am I not allowed any time to get the buds to the patients I grow for either? Do I have to give it to them raw just to stay legal??

This is the product and maleficence offered by the wrongful interpretation of LARA's licensing requirement of 2.5 oz/12 plants found in section 4 of the act. This is being simply used by LEO and the courts as litmus test to determine patient or prisoner under schedule I narcotic laws to maintain their blood/revenue flow. Sadly this is a scary and real threat to every patient and caregiver within this state and we must take heed.

That said, section 8 of that same act simply titled "Defense" offers an affirmative defense to those federal schedule I narcotic games, charges and indictments that are specifically precluded and somehow overlooked by same within section 4. Furthermore NO limits are specified here, but rather the specific language "uninterrupted supply" is used. The problem here is that these trials are not cheap and in turn not profitable for your local pot lawyer, LEO or court room. Justice is what you can afford my friend and in 5 years no one has yet been able to afford shutting this game down :(

Thanks for helping me clear that up. The best thing I can do is use stealth like I have been doing. Which is sad because I am trying to help people. I caregive for an old disabled man who is in a terrible amount of pain. I don't charge him anything and give him an ounce a month, and even payed for his card and doctor. Last month I gave him almost 4 ounces. I have an everclear half gallon on order I am going to make some green dragon tincture for him out of the sugar leaves and scrag bud I have jarred.

I think the police and organized crime are making way too much money off marijuana for it to ever be fully legal. Its sad the our justice system is grinding people's lives up like this over a harmless (and actually very medically beneficial) plant. Not to mention the countless number of other uses for the marijuana plant.

But I am going to shut up now before I go on a rant that isn't going to make any difference.

well you legally can carry trans port 12.5 ounces. because you have to be able to deliver it to your sick patients. your the care taker. sick patients at times cant get out of bed m or ms caretaker job is to grow and supply sick people and most of the time deliver the meds, and at hole your allowed 15 ounces your own meds. but can not transport 15 why would you transport your own meds ? from your home. so yes 2.5 ounces per patient up to 5 patients. and your self a caretaker and patient so 60 plants 5 patients 12 plants for your self 72 plants total

keep in mind that you are correct in saying you can get your limit from one plant and that they ALLOW you 11 more per patient. they are not forcing you to flower the other 11 plants they are allowing you to have though!. those can be used in other stages of growth. just pointing that out is all, yes the laws are all BS I agree.

for got to say. your patient is allowed to have 2.5 ounces , and your allowed to still have there weight at your home. just because the patient is supplied don't not mean you cant have the weight his weight in your home, its not your job to know if your patient is stock pile it up or what, all you need to do is make sure there are available meds.
