No one is coming after small time growers in med/rec states. The need for paranoia if you have a light or 6 up is no longer an overriding concern. The need for discretion is still a must, of course. There are to many idiots blowing shit up without discretion.
The other things to keep in mind is critical mass. I see a lot of live music. A lot of venues will still harsh on you for firing up a bowl, however with some bands, there are just to many people firing up bowls for security to do anything. I'm pretty sure we're at that point with cannabis in CO, WA, CA, with other states not far behind. While the powers that be may still be getting their panties in a bunch over a joint, popular opinion doesn't fucking care about weed anymore. This is a beautiful thing.
We can argue the finer details of plant counts, harvest limits, potency restrictions, and speculate on what will happen with impending legislation until we're blue in the face, but at least in my neck of the woods, no one cares anymore, and you gotta be a real douche to raise an eyebrow. Hell, I saw Moonshine Man at the grow shop yesterday, apparently prepping to take a shitload of cuts. With literal canna celebrities emerging, us little guys can breathe easy.
