Cg Question

[m3carbon]

Under MI law can there be more than one care giver per house hold

[Kingdiamond]

Yes but the grows have to be separated in different  rooms or with wire down the middle of the room with a locked entryway into each side but understand anything over 99 plants can draw in the DEA  be careful.

If you have two caregivers in the house, it's sometimes easier for one caregiver to claim the veg room as theirs and the flowering room as the domain of the other caregiver.

Great idea as long as its a couple of people who can get along and trust each other.

[trichcycler]

usually a bad idea to be selling to more than 5 people out of one household.. There is some mention of "collective" growing, and it isn't positive. You will have a difficult time finding 5 patients to help support your garden of 72 plants legally, so anymore than that seems like a risky endeavor to me.

[Celliach]

I know several married couples using the scenario I outlined above.  As long as they stay below 99 plants they should be alright.

I recall a caregiver friend of mine telling me the same about selling his overages to the dispensary years ago. I suggested he be concerned with the slack jaw behind the counter, and his personal info copied in the cabinet....low  and behold, it bit him hard when the place was finally raided.

I'm suggesting the safest ways of caregiving, not the ways I see people getting away with , and having no trouble so far. The Mi'gov website will not address two caregivers in the same household, or a collective as referred , for thought. I wonder why?

[trichcycler]

what would be the purpose of two cg's in a household, except for the production of household money which the state clearly doesn't like.

Being able to help more friends that have medical ailments.  Not everyone is motivated by money.  Some of us have altruistic motives.

Easier - yes, but it necessarily implies that there will be transfers from CG to CG, which doesn't seem to have Section 4 protection at this time.  So it isn't an arrangement you'd want to emphasize if you're doing it.

There is nothing in the law that limits the number of CGs who live together.  You can have 100 CGs living in the same house.  They just can't transfer between themselves, can't have access to each others grows, and if there are more than 99 plants, there might be additional federal attention.  But there is nothing in the law that says two or more CGs can't live under the same roof.

right, I agree. There is no money to be made providing an ounce or two of medical cannabis to five patients as needed, while remaining legal in all aspects. Any who are attempting to exploit that scheme, must have some money motivation, because the expense of separating rooms, and grow equipment could be very expensive for some

Spot on.  And a few of us have spent a lot of time in the past 4 years trying to get people to realize that, at best, CGing is a decent part-time job.  Unfortunately, a lot of people who love cannabis thought that they could suddenly become "BIG" as a caregiver.  There really isn't nearly as much financial opportunity here as a lot of people thought...and I think a lot of uninformed folks bet the farm that they would be the next grower to strike it rich. 

[trichcycler]

now, when the provisioning centers roll up, the cream of the crop growers may have that opportunity......but that's another thread

[jointedone]

So start it. Interesting subject.

[imiubu]

oh lawdy really?

 

Why not just dig up an old one.. there are too many threads concerning the 'dispensary/provisioning center' subject already started, IMHO.

[imiubu]

If you check out the testimony on "provisioning centers," you'll see that those pushing this concept don't think much of caregivers.

 

zap, can you provide a link... I am so disorganized

[Kingdiamond]

Yes if the provisioning centers get approved I think that all of their supply will be imported and not grown here in the state.

Middle man? Gee that sounds so CAPITALISTIC.

I don't have a link, I am not sure it was ever posted here or not. I may have seen some of it on Facebook.

 

k, ty. I don't farcebook

 

 

I guess the topic of this thread has gone horribly awry too, sigh.

[solabeirtan]

Funny? How the good intentions and best laid laws seem to come to that sad demise in this State, entirely too dam often. Best of luck to ya sport...

[trichcycler]

I hope not

[m3carbon]

Thanks for the info guys. Im not looking to make a ton of money i was asking because that might be a scenero for me if i ever do get started in the cg field

[solabeirtan]

In these days of confusion and misinformation it is imperative that we remain reasonable and tolerant of new ideas. Clinging to the old staples of hatred and death will only  insure your quick demise. Much like bringing a knife to a gunfight. Or a gun to a nuclear war. It's time to reach down grab each ear as hard as you can, hold your breath, grit your teeth and pull as hard as you can to try to dislodge your mind from the prison it has been trapped in, for way to long, now.
