well they never brought federal cultivation charges against anybody with less than 100 plants. So if you follow the local county ceilings in the emerald triangle (mendocino, humboldt, and sonoma counties in california) 100 sq ft/25 plants and up to 3 pounds per card, youre golden. So much so that I am banking on it hard core, like, dropping out of college/taking out maxed loans/telling everyone i know hard core. Wealth to the willing, glory to the gutsy, man up bitches!
