What do they mean, exactly, by "6 plants"?

If you are growing outdoors the simplest way to help them would be to take some clones off yours, go over to their house and plant the clones, you rooted earlier, in their respective gardens. Then just visit every few days and take a look and teach them. So that eventually they can do it themselves.

This saves you paperwork, risk and hassle.

Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day; teach a man to fish, and he'll never be hungry again.

Build a man a fire, he'll be warm for the night. Set a man on fire, he'll be warm the rest of his life

Also that, though it is less advised. ^^^

My two friends can't even cook for themselves in the condition they're in, let alone start a garden. I'm nice enough to grow a few extra plants since it also helps me out, but I'm not going to pay $300 to ask someone if I can grow for them. Until the laws change I guess they're just shit out of luck.

I got my card for $120, and the doc came to our house to check us out. I'm sure your buddies could swing their own doctor's recs. Then just grow for them if you want to help. Hell, if they're almost broke, I'd bet there's an actual compassionate doctor hiding somewhere near you. He'd probably do the rec at cost.

I understand the 6 mature plants per patient concept. I have my card, and my husband may get his soon. I would think it's permissible to grow an additional 6 plants without any hassle since we're both living here. However I read the law and got confused because one must make special arrangements if one is growing for other patients - and that would apply if we were growing for someone that didn't live here, right?

I just want to make sure that we can each grow 6... We'll post copies of both recommendations in the garden, of course. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

If he gets his card then you can have 12 pants Mature.
#1 advise is don't tell any one your growing, don't take your friends out and show off the plants, you may be surprised to find out 1 of them is
a thief.
#2 Don't sell or make promises to sell THAT IS AGAINST THE LAW!!!!!
#3 Learn how to cure your herb, properly curred herb is out of this world when it's 2-3 years old. Hint Mason Jars work for me.
#4 Don't make it hard it's a weed it'll grow and a little home depot ferts work fine.
Let me know if I can help, I'm up north by Redding.

Oh they have their medical cards and are willing to give me photocopies. They just don't have the room and it's to much work for them. I'd easily grow for them, if I knew the police wouldn't hassle me over it. I just don't want to say yeah I'll grow for you, give me your papers, then to find out the police show up and say I'm over my limit and I didn't establish a proper cooperative. It could be something so small and trivial, but they nail me on it.

I've grown as many as six at once and the police have come by twice in a single year and didn't never bother to ask for my papers. They seen the plants, toured the rest of the yard making sure I didn't have others hiding anywhere else, then said OK have a nice day. So I know six isn't going to cause problems. I just don't know if 12 would cause the police to automatically arrest me and leave it to the courts to figure it all out. That's usually how they work.

The police don't need to know every detail of the law and no amount of arguing is going to get them to un-cuff you once they have it in their mind that your operating unlawfully. However, apparently six plants isn't even worth them asking for my paperwork. So I know for a fact that six is safe in my county.

I would really love to hear from someone who is growing more then six plants, is using multiple recommendations to get around the six plant limit, AND they've been visited by the police.

Give a crackhead crack and he'll smoke it.

Ask your county sherrif for his enforcement guidelines for his deputies!!!!



The county Sherrif is the chief law enforcement officer within the county. Ask him his enforcement guidelines for his deputies, see if he has a handout prepared, if not, suggest it. If he is willing, get his statements in writing. I personally would tape the conversation secretly. If you simply MUST grow outdoors, make sure you are within the guidelines given you by the sherrif. If he is a dick about it, consider moving or a sub-rosa indoor grow.
