I hope your making darn sure of whats legal and whats not in your state. There just might be illegal product and its growing on YOUR land. Sure, it belongs to your tenant but it could be a big headache for you as well. You need to see a good lawyer well versed in the laws of your state.

That's what I was trying to say dude! I agree! I am a land owner too and in my state we MUST destroy it on our farms when we see it by law. But, as you said, and is true, if you are the land owner, you can be in hot water too if it is not legal. Would you chop this one down (lol)! Peace

All valid points. This is the trouble with the law: it's illegal for growers to compensate anyone because its regarded as profits through drug trade. Yet people must pay to use land to grow on. This is all done under the table so no written agreements can be made. People can't be held accountable.

In addition caregivers (growers) can be compensated by the card holders for 'costs' of the operation like electricity, fertilizer ect..

Not to mention its still illegal on the federal level so land owners are at risk if their legal medical operations get to large. At least this seems to be the case.

Thanks again though this really clears things up or helps to get other peoples perspectives. It will be much better when politicians will be more willing to put their head out there without the fear of getting the chopping block. States are still unwilling or unable to find a way to make this like any other agricultural resource. And when they do - eventually it will make things much easier for everyone because the laws will hold people accountable for their actions.

anything attched to property i.e. trees shrubs and yes plants if there planted in ground become part of that property .if they are still in pots it would be considered personal property.

by the way you can lease land and put in writing without specifying use. i would give written notice if payment isnt recieved you will loose your land use.

I'm not so sure that eviction is the right way to go - wether, or not, they are actually residing there.

I don't know about the OP's state, but in California (at least) a Renter must have the expressed permission of the Landlord in order to "legally" grow. Now with that being said, I'm not really sure what the OP really wants to do - do you want to chop the grow down, or do you just want to chop yourself some, or do you just want to make the guy pay-up? At any rate, just tell the "Rentee" that he has not compensated you (as per yout agreement), so you are therefore rescinding your permission for him to grow on your property. See what he has to say then!

Does the OP posess the proper paperwork to maintain a "legal grow"?
