Medical Grow in dorm? Legal?

I just have a quick question in which I can't find an answer to. I have had a medical condition since I was 14. I just got my California Medical marijuana card.

I can grow 8 mature plants under state law. Is it legal to grow in a dorm room (state)? Should I ask the head of my dorm and explain my condition? I am only planning on growing 3 plants (mother, clone, flower).

I'm probably just going to wait until I grad to grow if it is illegal. I will still buy from dispensaries and such.

you wont be able to

I am sure its againt school policies! read your student hand book. It will state very clearly that no illegal substances are allowed your dorm room. I know it medical but its still illegal under federal law so your pretty much fucked! But I bet a fellow student steals it befor anyone els finds out

man, you know what sucks? Is when your lighter is so trich sticky it won't spark...

Thanks guys, I thought it wasn't possible. It's all good, i'll just hold off a couple more years.

I can't believe you think that I am faking a condition for a card. Just because some people abuse med maryj, doesn't mean everyone does. , schools ahhh.

then you aparently know nothing about med pot because it youd done any research at all you would know that there are plenty of people who NEED thier pot to live comfortably with thier conditions.

15 post and already some neg rep. could you just leave now and forget the URL please.

guys chill out. I got my answer, there is no need to fight over anything.

Marijuana doesn't "cure" anything. It may relieve symptoms. It shouldn't be used for personal problems, but actual medical disorders.

im not a lawyer so i can't say for sure but i wouldn't try my luck those are seriouse charges if they decide to trip sorry if my info is a little late or uneeded

You said chill but I have to set that dude straight.

When you insult and belittle medical users you deserve to get neg repped, you're acting like an inconsiderate asshole.

Many people NEED medical marijuana to live. Period. Many people can't take prescription pain pills or whatever due to such horrible negative side effects most things have. I have three crushed vertibrae to half their size and many compressed disks in my back. I could not take the side effects of every other narcotic/muscle relaxer/non narcotic pain pills after a few years of them eating my insides up causing IBS etc. I ended up worse off than without anything.

All the pills I've taken since my accident only made matters worse and frankly would have given up on life and put a bullet in my head already if it weren't for finally finding something that makes living in constant pain bearable. Medical Marijuana is a lifesaver for MANY people with VERY serious medical issues.

Next time you have horrible intestinal pain and shit your ass bloody, imagine what it would be like to do that every day, after every meal, and have to go to work, etc.

Then imagine that weed alleviates the pain, and actually helps the condition, as opposed to all the other things that help a few symptoms but cause other problems at the same time.

I was just like you, I thought the idea of "medical marijuana" was hilarious. Then one day, I tried it, not for medical use at first, and you know what? It helped - immensely.

You dont have to have enough to get high at all, just like any other medicine, you take an appropriate dose to alleviate the symptoms.

Sometimes, when I think I'm imagining it, using my condition as some sort of justification for just liking weed, I stop for a little while. You know what? I can always tell when I'll pass a "drug" test, because I feel like shit again.

Please dont take this as me jumping down your throat, because I understand your skepticism. But its not bullshit.


For the original poster - I concur with most of the advice given here - dont fuck with your future trying to grow in your room. I say, dont even ask them. Thats like letting them know to watch your room for weed. They wont say yes, but asking them wont help you either.

What kind of response is that?


People = shit

It's not a story, it's my life and I hope you are never in the same position but you should be a bit more understanding. There are tons of people who just want to get high, sure, but there are also many on deaths door or near it that need the ability to use anything they want to either make life liveable or to make the transition to death easier. There are even medical prescribed hallucinogens (sp?) prescribed specifically to ease peoples transition to death and their fears of what may come afterwards.

People need more compassion and understanding about a lot of things.

we can argue all day about the medical value of weed but the fact still remains if you need drugs to cure personal problems you have some serious issues

medical weed helps a lot of people, you may consider your own personal issues to come one here and insult medical users when you obviously dont have the slightest idea of its medicinal value. do all of us a favor, and do a little research next time before coming on here and making yourself look like an asshole and an idiot.

cool story bro

Let me ask my sister...who's dying from breast/ liver cancer...if the nausea she feels after chemotherapy is just a justification for smoking the stuff? Sure there are pills for that... when she can keep them down...after she smokes a bit...she can eat....she can move her head back and forth without throwing up everywhere. i myself have anxiety issues and crohn's disease...and while i could definitely pop any number of pain killers or anti anxiety meds to help ease the stress of watching someone i love slowly die in front of me, so far some good low strength buds help me considerably too.


cool enough story for you friend?

Trust me, I'm all about everyone having a right to their opinion, but your view seems a bit insensitive, which is liable to ruffle some feathers in a forum full of medical users.

and obviously if that's your view of medical your one of the ones that just wants to get high so who the hell are you to even say anything man?

If you dont trust medical Marijuana,and trust a pharmeceutical companys lab created drug,where there only real care in the world is to get rich as fuck and make lods of money by having people addicted to their 'medical' drug,then i feel sorry for you,like i feel sorry for 90 percent(probably over) of the population,because they are ignorant,uneducated idiots

Cocaine and HEROIN are marketed to us on prescrption,but hidden under red tape and BRAND names to disguise the fact that in essence,it is actually heroin

I have a skin problem,Acne to be precise,im 21 nearly now,and its got alot better but i still get it,my skins very oily(not super but,its not dry either),i was going to take a drug called Roaccutane,i looked at the possible side effects leaflet,and AMONGST all the nasty,nasty,nasty side effects i could have had,one of them was...................VIRAL HEPITITIS C OF THE LIVER,i was like......your fucking kidding me,so i thought fuck that theres no way im touching that stuff.

most of the prescription drugs do more harm than good,i dont have an excusable(not that its an excuse for you guys,just keep reading youll see)medical condition that i NEED to smoke cannabis for,i like to get high on weed,its just lovely,its something i want to do,i enjoy it hugely,and it makes reading books,playing games and wathcing films all the more interesting,and i loved doing those things anyway

but it is an utter utter shame where poeple who are in chronic constantly day pain,are not allowed to have a natural non processed wonder herb that would make their quality of life so so so much better,instead they are marketed pain killers and all sorts(like i said,heroin etc etc,adhd is controlled with a lab altered version of METHAMPHETAMINE,you know,crystal meth,they even give your kids that shite).

its a crying shame its not legal the world over for medical purposes,as its so obviously a good thing,i feel bad when i just smoke loads,because i think of the people that really do need it,and dont want to take all those shitty factory made drugs,i sympathise with them so much,and it makes me angry that they could be denied their relief,very very angry.

like i said,i just love to smoke it,i dont like getting pissed out of my face,i have a drink once in a while,get a bit tipsy etc etc,but i far far prefer smoking pot and say,reading a good sci-fi book,or playing xbox/ps3 on my own or with my buddies,its so much more immersive.Yet i am considered a criminal,where as a crime is commited against another person or property,possesion of drugs makes a crime out of something that truly just is not a crime

man you would get in sme shit even thow ur legal
