I just read in 420 something about doctors being allowed to recommend more than the state minimum. Is it fairly easy, or difficult to find a doctor that will make such a recomendation? I have a well documented qualifying condition.

What a fantastic magazine! It's citing law that's been struck down. There are no more plant limits in California. Any doctor who limits their patient by plant count or finished bud weight is doing that patient a disservice. And that doctor is ignorant of the current state of the law if they believe California still has plant limits.

Federal limit of 99 is where most of us have put ourselves.

My own doctor is very careful about how he's worded his standard recommendation. He ONLY states that he recommends that I use cannabis for my problem(s) and specifically does not state plant numbers or finished bud amounts because that would limit me. What you want is this type of doctor, that knows the law and knows how to write a recommendation.

Seamaiden do you know of a way to raise the plant limits if your registered with State of California Medical Marijuana program?

GreenThumb, pending on where you got your rec its a matter of paying a higher fee to get a higher plant count. I renewed my rec last month and if I wanted a 99 plant limit, they wanted an additional $250.00 what a crock of sh_t . I found another Doc who's fee where $140 for rec and 79 plant count.
Just need to call around and find your best deal. The phone people at the doc office will talk openly with you.

Stop participating in the ID card program, make sure your recommending doctor does not write a reco that limits you in any way, shape, or form and you won't need them to charge you more to simply write a different recommendation, no?
Seamaiden do you know of a way to raise the plant limits if your registered with State of California Medical Marijuana program?
No. In fact, that's one of the specific reasons why I do not participate in the state ID program, which my attorney confirmed as a good move for someone like myself who needs quite a bit more than the average Joe--by doing so you are legally voluntarily limiting yourself. I did not come to a conclusion on the disposition of whether or not someone who already has a state ID can somehow be exempted from those limits simply by their recommending doctor specifying such, either.

My attorney feels the law and court decision was fairly absolute on the matter--get a state ID card and you must adhere to the limits. Of course, that may also have to do with the fact that the jurisdiction he's familiar with is generally 420-unfriendly, and he's cautious in the extreme. Other attorneys, especially any who specialize in MMJ defense, may feel differently. I don't think there is precedent case on law on this specific type of issue, yet.

Plant counts and finished weight amounts are something that I feel my own doctor, were he writing for folks who do have IDs, would gladly include in his recs without charging an extra fee for, let alone such an exorbitant one. Every year my renewal costs less and less, too, that $250 is more than he charged me for my initial consultation.

Here's an LA Times article that briefly explains the supreme court ruling.

Agree with Seamaiden from what I've heard on the ID program. Remember, you're not looking for a dr who will write a recommendation for a lot of plants... You're looking for one who'd be willing to testify you need that many if it ever came up.

From what I read and understand from the very very long version of Peoples vs Kelly, A California Medical Marijuana Identification Card, either as a patient or care giver with limitations subordinates to your doctors recommendation. I like the sanctuary of the state ID card from arrest, but not the limitations. IYHO would I still have the sanctuary from arrest having the state ID card along with my doctors recommendation stating I may have more to satisfy my needs from my doctor to facilitate my needs. or how ever that was worded?
Is that how you read it?

If the doctor is willing to testify in court on your behalf then I can see your point. But it doesn't really seem to me that a doctor that charges extra for a higher plant recommendation would be the type to appear in court on behalf of the patient.

Also, it's a privacy issue. If you register with the state then often times you are telling them where to come find you and your grow (unless you have a way to register a po box to an address you don't really live at).

I am pretty sure the limits set by your state ID card supersedes any limit recommendations your doctor sets. I personally would avoid the card as it limits you to six plants no matter what, as well as placing you into a database.
All you really need for personal protection for a few plants/herbs/whatever, is your original doctors rec. If you want to grow more than a few plants best thing to do is go see a lawyer and start a collective. If your collective has enough members to justify your plant numbers, your golden.......at state level anyhow. Feds are a whole other ballgame. I would personally NEVER grow over 99 plants even WITH a collective. Mandatory minimums are a bitch.
Best thing any of us can do for ourselves is to educate ourselves and each other. It's a very complicated formula to navigate our current laws. Peace.

The card does not provide sanctuary, it only puts you on a database. It's still up to the individual officer how he or she is going to handle you, should you have contact with police. Also, being 100% 215-compliant does not preserve you from arrest or prosecution, it only allows you to use the defense of being a patient/medical user. The presumption there, unfortunately, is that you must be put into the position of defending yourself.

Thusly--attorney on retainer.
If the doctor is willing to testify in court on your behalf then I can see your point. But it doesn't really seem to me that a doctor that charges extra for a higher plant recommendation would be the type to appear in court on behalf of the patient.
This is why I pay my doctor a little more in the first place. He makes himself available 24/7 and has signed a contract with me that says that as long as I'm playing by the rules, he's in my corner and will appear in court and testify on my behalf. He's very conscientious about how he goes about making recommendations, I wish more people used doctors like him.

Most important thing is to be able to support your plant counts/numbers. I am able to do this, in large part because I smoke a LOT of pot. If you cook, make tinctures, skin salves or edibles, then you would need even more than what I grow and use.


OP, if I were you I would take the time to find an attorney who'll give an initial consultation for a low fee or free, be sure he's in the area where you plan on growing and knows the local courts, laws, and players, and do what that guy says.

California medical marijuana guidelines

Send us an e-mail

Patients can have any amount of cannabis consistent with their personal medical needs. Patients and caregivers with a state-issued ID card are immune from arrest and allowed to possess the amounts below. Patients and caregivers without a state-issued ID card are subject to case-by-case scrutiny. Patients keep their right to defend gardens and dosages of any amount in court. However staying within local guidelines significantly reduces the likelihood that a patient or caregiver will face legal problems. We recommend that you stay comfortably below the upper limits.

California's Local Guidelines

These limits are not legally binding, other than for purposes of immunity from arrest and prosecution; they are floor amounts intended to provide a safe harbor of immunity for any patient with a bona fide recommendation to be presumed in compliance with California Health and Safety Code HS 11362.5 (Prop 215), as long as there is no indicia of sales or commercial production. The affirmative defense remains for patients in possession of larger amounts. Collectives and patients charged with intent to sell should take note of special provisions in HS 11362.7. Larger amounts may be authorized by local cities or counties.

SB 420 Statewide Default Patient Guidelines: To be as safe as possible from arrest and prosecution, patients and caregivers should stay below the medical marijuana immunity law passed by the California legislature, HS 11362.77, which sets a minimum statewide guideline of 6 mature plants OR 12 immature plants AND up to 8 ounces of processed cannabis flowers. Physician's note exempts larger amounts. Cities and counties empowered to set guidelines that are greater than those amounts, but not less. This is explained in an open letter from the authors of the bill. Also see the Supreme Court's Wright decision at chrisconrad.com/expert.witness/wright.html.

To learn more about the history of implementation and malfeasance towards California's medical marijuana laws, visit ccrmg.org/projects.html

The California Attorney General has issued his own set of guidelines. These are not binding law, but give an idea of how prosecutors will consider the circumstances of a medical marijuana patient or garden.

Federal law does not recognize medical marijuana and the Raich decision affirmed their power to prosecutes cases that are legal under state law. Federal law does not "trump" state law, it is a seperate jurisdiction.

Cannabis guidelines adopted by Cities

City of Arcata

Ordinance: ID card system maintained by Chief of Police. 10 plants + 2 # dried.

City of Berkeley

Ordinance: up to 10 plants and 2.5 lbs per patient; collectives up to 50 plants and 12.5 lbs total at any given time.

Caregiver amounts calculated on the above numbers per patient served.

City of Oakland

Ordinance: Indoors -- Up to 72 plants with up to 32 square feet of canopy and 3 # dried bud. Caregiver amounts calculated on the above numbers per patient served. Outdoors -- 20 plants at any stage of developmen and 3 # dried bud.

Effective June 1, 2004: Collectives not to exceed three patient members. Only four licensed dispensaries to be allowed by the City. Dispensaries limited to 8 ounces and 6 mature plus 12 immature plants per patient member at any given time. No on-site consumption allowed.

Original policy from 1998: Outdoors - 30 mature plants (60 if less than 30 are flowering); Indoors 144 -- 48 mature plants + 96 immature vegetative and/or 1.5 # or 6 # (if patient grew).

City of San Diego

Still in development: Current version 9/17/03: Adult marijuana patients with the approval of a San Diego County doctor may keep up to 1 pound of marijuana and grow up to 24 plants. Under the measure, caregivers can keep up to 2 pounds of marijuana and grow up to 48 plants for as many as four patients.The ordinance must come back for a final vote, as a procedural matter, to be enacted.

City of San Jose

No quantity limits are established. Officers will not cite or arrest physicians, primary caregivers, or patients possessing or using marijuana for legitimate medicinal purposes in accordance with 11362.5 H&S. Standards of reasonableness in deciding enforcement issues are similar to those in needle or drug possession cases where a prescription is claimed or in a gun possession case where a permit is claimed. It should be kept in mind that mere oral approval by the physician is all that is necessary to comply with the law. Standards of probable cause for a vehicle search, person search, arrest, or a search warrant request should take into account known facts regarding the permitted uses of marijuana under Proposition 215.

City of Santa Cruz

No quantity guidelines; city ordinance regulates cannabis clubs, allows physician's diagnosis for recommendation.

City of Santa Rosa

Ordinance: Safe Access Guidelines, same as the County of Sonoma. For more information, contact Sonoma Alliance for Medical Marijuana.

City of Sebastopol

Ordinance: Safe Access Guidelines, same as the County of Sonoma. For more information, contact Sonoma Alliance for Medical Marijuana; letter to DA asks to protect patients with 4.5# and 150 square feet of garden canopy.

Abob are you familiar with this organization? I clicked through all their info and it only lists 2 names, one of whom is an "activist" with many links to his website where you can buy stuff. It seems a lot of the info is out of date or inaccurate. Also, it says your quote on one page and the below on another. Seems contradictory. As Seamaiden says above, Prop 215 and SB 420 don't protect any mmj users/growers from arrest. It merely provides them with an affirmative defense.

I don't want to talk trash on that website, but it seems like a blog with copy and pasted info who is borrowing on the good name of Americans for Safe Access (safeaccessnow.org instead of the .net they use).





This program is voluntary for qualified patients and caregivers but many choose to become card holders because it greatly reduces their risk of unnecessary legal hassles for a qualified person who stays within the statewide or local safe harbor guidelines.

Abob, are you aware that all local limits are now invalidated by the People vs Kelly decision? All local limits on plant numbers are now null and void. You can not be prosecuted based on plant counts. There is a lovely magical federal number of 99 that many, if not most, respect, including I believe in cooperative or communal growing scenarios, but the limits placed by cities, counties, etcetera no longer matter.

Any locality with ordinances on their books like what you've just posted are behind the curve and need to update so as to rectify what is now in violation of Proposition 215.

Be able to support your numbers if you choose to answer such a question by law enforcement. Consult a doctor for doctoring, an attorney for lawyering. That's my best advice and I'm stickin' to it.

What I was and am trying to address is: As long as you have a California State MMP ID Card you are immune from arrest as long as you stay within the Guide line in each city.

Yes, the limits have been changed to read as needed. As in post #15
I will try and clean up my thought pattern, but at the moment I need to attend a meeting. I apologies if I jumped the gun and put out bad info. I will be back to clean it up, Abob
