Heres a fact you might not like.

There have been way more weed arrests since medical has been allowed than ever before.

And im sure it will increase now that we have rec.

And they havent even figured out how to bust high drivers yet. Just wait.

Weed is far from legal. Its regulated. Not even close to the same thing.
Where i live bro its like cat and mouse you all really have no idea how lucky you are

Weed growing arrests have gone to pretty much zero in Washington, even though rec growing is technically illegal. My friend grows half a dozen plants outside every year, in town, with no issues.

Is it still a federal offence in the states for growing cannabis?

I have had felony amounts of flowers in my posession for 35 years. The weed was never a problem. Honestly I worried more about cops when i became a medical licensed caregiver.
Me too ive been caught a few times lol but its not the cops that worry me its scum bags who rip plants from peoples homes and outdoor secret Gardens there everywhere

I dont believe that. They go after commercial growers all the time in legal states. And just cause your friend is lucky so far doesnt make him safe. They just go after bigger fish now.

Small drug busts were the bread and butter of the courts. They have to make up for their lost income.

When they work out roadside testing for vehicles there will be as many arrests as drunk driving.

Not getting caught doesnt mean we are safe.

Yes, of course. But per my original post, I'll bet we see action on the federal level soon. This will be a popular issue to be for in the coming election.
I hope so bro where i live theres a few of us that have applied to grow govt approved strains and added them to our current hemp licences ideally we would look to export

I wouldn't touch growing as a business, for the reasons I listed in first post. Too much competition, prices will suck. The easy money from growing weed is history.

For me its not about the money its about getting medicine to those people in need at a affordable cost and high quaility something that big Pharma companies to simply cannot do

I have done time but not for weed.

And we always had cops and rippers. Just tell no one and keep it hidden. Always been the cardinal rule. Still applies.

4 outdoor growers i know. One has a really nice greenhouse with good security. They were all ripped. The greenhouse family at gunpoint.

Legal weed means nothing. Still the wild west out there.

Admittedly the focus has gone off cannabis the police here are more interested in busting people for methamphetamine in fact cannabis has become very hard to source where I live but methamphetamine is incredibly easy to source

Yeah they just have a blanket rule here no thc lol any in your blood and your busted if caught driving


They are inventing ways to arrest for weed.

And they still raid home grows with machine guns.

Home grows are unregulated. They want their tax money compensated.
