moving to co

eyecandi · Jul 15, 2011

if you head back to FL now, you can hit that green rush. it's up for 2012 vote and I hear our ex-MMED head is now consulting there ...... anyone wanna guess the next state to go green? personally, i look forward to it .... the movement needs a big swing vote state to change the fed laws

As far as the rules go washing state is where it is at.

Not a rich man a rastaman

Welcome to my home. Make yourself comfy! Theres plenty of room here.
It may be hard to hit it rich here if your are not already. But I think
its pretty easy here to live well n be happy.
Best of luck n success to all that you may pursue here.

thanks

by all meens you can still move here & become a patient and just grow to supply yourself with meds along with a few very close buddies. living is cheap enough..you got the mountains, lakes, rivers, wildlife, skiing, great weather & good laid back people for the most part. i vacationed here one fall season with my women & then after going back home i decided i wanted the Rockies. one year later we moved to CO from the eastcoast_ but i moved here for the things mentioned above not for the med scene_i didnt start growing out here or get a redcard till i was here for a few years.

come live the good life if thats what you wanna do. :pimp:

If you've been growing for that long then any med state would be an improvement. I wasn't trying to discourage you from moving to CO, I was just trying to let you know that even here you won't be fully legal if you are making your living solely as a caregiver. Sounds like you know that already and you're ok with it though. Cool.

FYI, I've been in CO for almost 4 years now. I'm moving to what I hope is greener pasture in WA next month. It's just too frustrating to stay here with all the recent changes. It's very obvious what happened. Caregivers were making untaxed money in a cottage industry and that pissed off a lot of people in law enforcement, government and the community. Instead of offering caregivers regulations that protected them and encouraged them to pay taxes on their profits, the government teamed up with big business dispensaries and pushed the caregivers out of the loop entirely.

Starting off here now, after all the changes will probably be easier for you to deal with than staying here after all the changes would be for me.

Honestly, if you think it's at all possible for you to live in Maine, I would look more into it. I did, and decided I couldn't live there. But in terms of business, it definitely appears to be the most lenient state in the country with respect to growing, selling and using marijuana.

Good luck to you wherever you decide to go.

P.S. 55 aint old!

Son you've finally got it made

jfly has been on and around these boards for years and knows the deal here in CO_more then alot of others out here. :rasta2: oh man i love this place as well ..you go you go :ninja

kolah · Jul 15, 2011

I dunno. I see "MJ dispens overload" everywhere in CO. Lots of competition, lots of bullshit laws and everyone smack talking each other.

20k? You'd better on welfare and selling weed black market style.

AlohaRebel · Jul 30, 2011

So after reading this thread i would like to know if it is possible to make any $ say less than $20 k. A caregiver or patients can not deliver the extra to a despens or patient to patient transaction? If there's no $ involved may have to head back to the roots MI sounds profitable there for sure but Co is Beautiful......Detroit Ugly lol!!!

Texas Kid · Jul 30, 2011

I could have made 20k last week, if I just had the product ready and on hand, I hate waitin on rooms to finish lol, it is that way all the time now and more so since all the rules started to kick in and the crack down has started.

The despensary backlash and all the state rules have really opened it back up for the growers big time..thanks MMED and DOR, your on my Christmas list now haha

If you can't make 20k a year growin, you can't grow very well IMO, I mean thats under 10lbs and if its dank, it gets sucked up with the quickness around here no problem

Illmind · Jul 30, 2011

20k a crop more likey. step the space and watt game up is all.

maestro · Jul 30, 2011

^^^ Glad I'm not the only one who noticed an almost instant vaccume starting beginin July! Thank JAH! Ha ha Merry Xmas MMED n DOR! F@%k you
....actually way way faster than I imagined. That likely just shows the HUGE increase in demand by all the new tokers here I guess. Just wait until all the dispensary kids start cranking out there wispy immature wanna bee nugs THEMSELVES. Right now most are still off'n stock from before just rying to get full prices knowing whats coming. They asked for this now lets see how they deal with it!

ANYONE with skills who loves fresh air, open space beautiful country n damn good people come on out here n blow you shit up! We'll all need ya come Christmas.... Variety is the spice of life.

I'm lovin it!

deep buddy · Jul 30, 2011

ncmaineac · Jul 30, 2011

deep buddy

thanks to everyone for the help....deep buddy you seem to be one of the people that moved there most recently....can you tell me more , like what area you moved to, north of denver or south or what....i am thinking about loveland or ft collins....

did you find any problemsrenting a house...assume you didnt tell them you are growing....

thanks

It's all about the money, huh? hmm.

But what about "the patients?" and the compassionate "Caregivers?"...who provide "medicine."

Welcome to the Jungle.

ncmaineac · Jul 30, 2011

yep its the money

one thing i wont be called is a hypicrite, its about the money....first. then patients,

Texas Kid · Jul 30, 2011

Im a patient, I grow, and provide to other patients...if that helps patients....great, if I make money even better, that is the system

Making quality meds available to the patient base is the compassionate effort, not givin it away just because someone has a red card, ain't no free aspirin out there that I know of.

The entire patient/caregiver/despensary system here has become, and pretty much always was, a farse so I am done with it...onward and upward

Got Meds?
