Sorry, see i fI can be a bit more clear. There is no set limit for plant or daily amount of usable dried meds, they correspond to each other. Also HC will take certain things into account, i.e., if your in a wheel chair, and grow your own, then they will be less concerned of plant limit as the person may simply need smaller plants so they can work with them. Thats one of the things that have been changed, they used to be very hard on the plant.grams limits.
And its not if you grow more than that, its when you first apply, if your doctor prescribes you more than 5 grams a day (usually comes out to be 25 plants, at 73 plants, i have a daily dosage of 15 grams). Now if you grow more once you have your license, then your immediately considered illegal, and they wont charge you with 1 plant if you grow 26 with a 25 plant limit, the'll charge you with 26 illegal plants, so watch your numbers. All this being said, again, there is no limit, just a potential health warning call to your doctor, oh, and there is a form that you can sign that puts all responsibility on you for insurance, now that doesnt mean anything for you in terms of your insurance co or anything, as they will cover nothing, it means your doctor can not be held responsible by your insurance co if anything happens to you that can potentially be blamed on medical mari. So thats a good thing to do too if your doc is hesitant.
Now sadly as I say, if you yourself have a lilcense to grow for yourself, or even a license to hold, you are not allowed to grow for any other med patients. Designated growers can not be patients, its one of the biggest piles of bullshit in the system, I could provide this entire province with meds from one house, and i'd do it for free, but they know that there is less chance of folks getting designated growers that are not already growing (just harder to find and set up, you know the hassles involved in that, or can assume I'm sure) than it is for them to simply pay for the trash from the government, and for the love of god dont smoke that shit, that stuff is crazy gross.
Ya bro, the hard part is the doctor hands down, Health Can is actually pretty easy to deal with, in fact, they were late sending me my papers last year, and they ladies advice when I asked if i had to cut down my plants in the mean time (lololololololol fuck that)was to, "exercise digression till it arrives", lol.
The police raided me back when my limit was only 49 plants. The reason is kind of funny though, I've been collecting genetics for a rather long time now, needless to say I grew long before i ever had a license. I've got one particular plant, a pheno of somas lavender, its a straight up freak, never seen one like it since, and it reaks. I've got ogs, Chemdog D, Chemdog #4, Chemdog 91, chem kush, purple ksuh, ssh nevilles haze, over 30 rare elite moms now, and not one of them, fuck, the whole room combined cant come close to the smell of this lavender. The chems are like a fart in the wind compared to it. Well, I always got a kick out of the fact that my buddies would smell my house from 4-5 streets over as they drove to my place, then one day I got a knock on the door. here were 8 plain clothes cops, they put me under arrest, and the reason was they believed I had in excess of 200 plants growing. Long story short(and by the way the reason the city hassled me, if the cops come, they'll have everything inspected)the reason they came here was because they could smell the lavender on water street, 1 km away, there was 1 plant of it in the room, lol. Now i am also a very high profile med grower, as I say, I'm the one that helps out the patients here, give them free meds, help them set up rooms, teach them what to do, blah blah blah, same as half of you guys I'm sure. Also been on CBC radio fighting for low income patients rights, university newspapers, reference for doctors(this is newfie, they know nothing about med herb here at all) and am in the process of starting the newfoundland medical marijuana association, by the way, anyone know the way to go about setting up a non proffit organization?
So ya, hows that for more typing then I planned on doing to day, lol.
