Hey nice ol bud, be easy there bud. We are all high, and yes we like to joke. But this guy is 18, he just becoming legal, and he may truly be in need, kinda like innocent til proven guilty. Yes it sounds fishy, but just feel the person out, if you aint given them your personal information then you got nothing to lose. Remember, you may have been in their shoes at some point.
Good way to put it, in that case I do apologize. But still doesn't give HIM the right to insult me first. So I was defending my rights as a RIU member. Lol, here's a bowl for your positivty mate!

Your welcome, but you may want to try to talk nicer as well. As the sayin goes, you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. I am sure those fellows would give great tips, but a lot of us are illegal too, so our first thought is yes, a cop fishing to bust someone. But you are legal, so you SHOULD be cool. This site is a cool place with a bunch of cool folks, I have seen serapis help folks, and make contributions to the site, as well as the unfortunate rowlman, who just had a 1000 watter explode and wreak havoc. And you know how americans are, we don't like to give shit away free. :) this is just some friendly advice, so take it for what you wish, and good luck

have an idea where you may possibly be able to grow your own. get a caregiver but basically have the caregiver do nothing. grow your own at your place. however just say that everything is technically in your caregivers possession and not yours. it just happens to be at your place. give the caregiver a cut for being cool. also by doing this, your allowing whomever you choose to be your caregiver to legally carry 2.5 ounces under mi state law. remember though, patient or not, it's still illegal to drive under the influence. if you happen to be stoned and get pulled over, never admit to using. it's known as a duid or driving under the influence of drugs, very similar to a drunk driving charge.
 
I know you say money is a problem for you, and I have a problem as well that I would be willing to work with you on. MY problem is that I am currently not a paitent OR a caregiver, so I am currently not growing as I am not allowed to be. If you want to work something out where I can be your caregiver, I will supply you with how ever much I am capable of growing with my hydroponic setup at a bi-monthly basis (approximatly 1.5 oz/15 days). I am not into making a profit as I just want to be able to help people in need at non-profit rates and build best friend-relationships with my paitents. This is what I need to start off my caregiving "career" and if you are willing to help me, I will help you by charging you nothing more than the cost of my gas to drive to you to deliver your medication.*

Another possibility if that's even too much for you would be a 2.5 oz (maximum) delivery every 30 days.*

If you are interested, send me a private message with your phone number and we can further discuss on the phone or figure out a time to meet and talk in person

im not exactly sure i seen anywhere in the law where it said a patient needed to be 21 to grow plants. a patient is not a caregiver, though a caregiver can be a patient, and a patient can be a caregiver. imo they are two very distinct personas in the law.

4. Protections for the Medical Use of Marihuana.
Sec. 4. (a) A qualifying patient who has been issued and possesses a registry identification card shall not be subject to arrest, prosecution, or penalty in any manner, or denied any right or privilege, including but not limited to civil penalty or disciplinary action by a business or occupational or professional licensing board or bureau, for the medical use of marihuana in accordance with this act, provided that the qualifying patient possesses an amount of marihuana that does not exceed 2.5 ounces of usable marihuana, and, if the qualifying patient has not specified that a primary caregiver will be allowed under state law to cultivate marihuana for the qualifying patient, 12 marihuana plants kept in an enclosed, locked facility. Any incidental amount of seeds, stalks, and unusable roots shall also be allowed under state law and shall not be included in this amount.






if someone can show me where it said a patient has to be 21 to grow plants please let me know, cause all i read is that a patient can grow plants if they have not specified a caregiver...

wait, a caregiver? You need someone to prepare your meals and household activities as well as take care of them?
Thats what I was told, you would actually need to actually live with your caregiver...

i would suggest reading all your papers, and everything on the website they give you. this is serious and not something you want to fuck up. one slip could end up with you being arrested and losing your card. for your own safety.
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1] Question: Do any age limits apply?
Answer: Registered caregivers must be 21 or older. Patients under age 18 must have the consent of their parent or guardian responsible for medical decisions. The parent or guardian must be the registered caregiver of the minor patient.

Sorry, but that doesn't specify the age to grow if your a patient, only the age to be a caregiver. I would think if you are old enough to be a patient without consent, then you should be able to grow too.

no thats not usually how it works, however a caregiver and patient could do it that way if they would like. all a caregiver is, is basically a professional gardener. under michigan state law they have the authority to possess and grow 12 plants per patient, and carry 2.5 ounces of usable marijuana per patient. that can assist with marijuana use also such as preparing edibles, or preparing for a smoke/vaporizing session. caregivers have no authority to use themselves unless they're also a patient. caregivers can also be reimbursed for any costs such as equipment or selling the marijuana they grow for the patient. usually patients and caregivers have a contract whether it be verbal or written on paper.

here is what the website says:
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][SIZE=-1]Question: How do I become a caregiver?
Answer: The MMMA defines a "Primary Caregiver" as a person who is at least 21 years old and who has agreed to assist with a patient's medical use of marihuana and who has never been convicted of a felony involving illegal drugs. Therefore, the qualifying patient (applicant or registrant) and you must complete a "Caregiver Attestation" to be submitted by the qualifying patient.

the way i do it is, i have at least a couple thousand dollars spent on grow equipment. a good friend of mine is a patient and needed someone trustworthy and someone thats knows what they're doing like myself to grow for them cause they dont have money for equipment or to even buy weed as often as they need it. so we have a verbal contract where as we split everything. so really, im doing this for free in a way but im cool with it cause i already make enough money working a couple regular jobs. and besides that, this is my passion and one of my many hobbies, i love doing it. so every harvest my friend gets half the weed, no charge at all besides letting me be the caregiver. i get the other half of the harvest. with my share, i sell to other caregivers and patients. this way i dont even pay any taxes besides the tax on the equipment i buy. totally legal within state law and i keep it on the dl and small scale so no feds bug me. remember, the federal government such as the dea can still bust you, even if your dying of cancer. and a lot of time local cops work with feds so be careful and be safe!

very good point, i cant see anywhere on the site or even my paperwork now that you mention it. another friend of mine who has a card said they told him he couldnt grow his own until he was 21. what they might mean is if your a patient that grows your own then you may be considered a caregiver for youself meaning you would need to be 21. i cant really say for sure but im almost positive my friend said they told him he cant grow his own. if you really want to make sure you could ask local law enforcement or your prosecutor. i dont know about other states but michigan has a huge grey area as far as the law goes. be safe!
