Making a living as a caregiver

[st0wandgrow]

You hear patient safety bullshit from me. Now you have some medical.

Dr Bob I have to ask..... why do you keep coming back?

I'm indifferent where you're concerned. I do think that you contribute some good info to the forum, but you also stir up a lot of bickering (not always of your doing). You take more verbal abuse on this forum than almost anyone else I've seen here, yet you keep coming back for more. What do you stand to gain by doing so? Do you enjoy the arguing? Do you feel that this is good for business? I'm not trying to chase you away, and I'm not trying to be a dick, I just don't understand how your participation in RIU benefits you in any way.

If I were in your shoes I would let the door hit me in the ass and never look back. Life's too short to deal with this type of drama every day.

My 'agenda' is patient safety and adequate information.

You should really ask yourself why folks attack knowledge and what their agenda is.

Dr. Bob

The majority of the site backed off you in order to wait and see where you were heading.
IMO you haven't posted jack shit about medical aspects. Mostly legal bs, personal fighting bs,
and promoting businesses you are or are not affiliated with.

The more posts you have about medical issues the more people will benefit.
The more posts you have about personal bullshit the more this site suffers.

Doc. As long as everyone is being civil. Keep in mind laws are frequently wrong and many of us here only want to better our medicine and could give two fucks about whats legal. Though the stay out of jail advice is always great.

1000 / 2000W for 72 plants? In what space?

sorry, i ment 1000 or 2000 watts in the flower room, 24 pre veg, 24 veg, 24 flower. harvets 1 plant per patient every 2 weeks.

get pariblic reflectors 7x14 flower room. and if you cant pull 2.5 oz off a plant, you better read up on growing before you go any further. because there is people pulling 9 oz per plant with 3 weeks veg.

Thanks. Indicas and sativas is kind of an old form of how to refer to cannabinoid profiles isn't it? Do you think that indica means a higher CBD content as a general rule of thumb and the lower CBD with higher THC contents being the sativas? I know it's going to sound like a fight or argument anyway I put it but I got questions if you got answers. almost everything (strain) out is an indica/sativa hybrid reported to be 60/40 one way or the other. I put a lot in the lab tests and contents of strains rather than a indica sativa or name of a cross. Terepenes is a new area I am looking at getting info on as well. There is a short supply of actual medical data and scientific help for people out there-legal advice is everywhere. grow info everywhere. moral shit too but actual medical info is in short supply. I never said you didn't have info I just never see it and I believe you're a legit doctor. our fights are always moral and legal but I will shut my mouth and listen to a doctor about medical information. As much as you can give. My patients are pain, arthritic and post-surgical lumbar pain.

I'd like to get your advice on medicinal issues and dosages and cannabinoid type for specific ailments. I'm confrontational, obviously; but still interested in what (if anything) you have to say about the medical properties and treatment specifics of cannabis. I just can't seem to get any of that specific info out of you doctor. If there is none to gain from you then you're probably right about putting you on ignore but I keep hoping you're going to help out with some treatment information or something medicinal.

Master Caregivers will be much more able to provide you with accurate information and details as well pertaining to individual hybrids and land race strains . They will understand the differences between plants as well as Titration along with Cannabinoid profiles and all with a proven track record of experience verses Doctors who only know basic specifics of this Study . This is a new era and field , in fact its a whole new field for many caregivers but the serious ones will will learn and study from others who offer solid knowledge ..

Luckly there are people banding together in our favor and they are making a huge difference more than any Doctor could .. A prime example is SkunkPharm out of Oregon

Very few Drs really know anything about Marijuana besides what they have read , you might as well speak to the pot gods and seek your answers my friend ..

Schedule 1 drug. Aside from anecdotal evidence, there is very little scientific data out there.

Its easy. Start by building a perfect enviroment that is key! Next aquire some quality genetics, either by clone (buyer beware) or by seed (be prepared to go through quite a few to find yer perfect plant). There is absolutely no way you will ever succeed with out those two things. Next pick a nutrient company, something simple, preferably with some room to expand and adjust once you can run the basics with no problem. Also, go organic whenever possible (go for both the plant and the planet). Then you must consider, do you want to grow high yielding plants that provide a lower valued product or do you want to try to have the best? Two different markets. I takes most growers a year or so to real know all the ins and outs of it. Being able to setup a successful grow takes practice and spare time and parts. A little beginners luck don't hurt. Good luck, but be realistic. Its real easy to do if you give it a perfect place to live!

A 9 oz plant with 3 weeks of veg is a pretty tall task. Not saying it's impossible, but I've never come anywhere near that number

 

[Cory and trevor]

I know all that stowe but its out there. I would accept anecdotal info from a doctor who specializes in cannabis, that'd be very useful I would think. Most stuff I find is from California and is small potatoes type studies from small labs. NIH does relent on some tumor growth inhibition....but yea schedule 1 no study no info is sort of my point; doctors like Bob have tons of info (in comparison) on what helps what and if anecdotal is all I can get I will still take it.

 

[Cory and trevor]

Professor +1 I got skunk pharm on bookmark.

 

[Bigtacofarmer]

Yeah, I was thinking 9 oz every three weeks. Bottom line to me is when you get into this your doing it for one of a few reasons. 1 You love some ganja, 2 your tired of buying your ganja, and 3. last but probably the most common is make some money selling ganja! The first two are well on there way to growing world class weed, the latter will never learn!

I too would enjoy the reference material verses political views .. No offense Dr Bob , but most here want such information . We need Doctors that take notes from caregivers and patients while becoming a new level of Cannabis Doctors that set example .. Some of us have been growing for decades studying the diversity of genetics and cannabinoids that the world has to offer . Then we got legal ability to treat and heal with this medicine and some of us have seen miracles but yet have not been able to share with the medical world due to the hypocrisies and legalities .. Then again Spirituality often comes into practice when healing and most Drs will not accept due to the western mindset ..

My AK-47 yields 7oz per plant with a two week veg, plus i pack two plants in each bucket. One plant per bucket with a 3 week veg would yield 9+ no sweat...

I am with Huel as over half of my clone only girls can produce this and more , its not an easy task though as it requires diligence and devotion to obtain weights like so on a perpetual basis with no interruption of flow to patients as well .

Jeeze--- whats with the whole "Lets Slam Dr. Bob for having an opinion"??

I THOUGHT that is what these boards are about- learning from each other, exchanging ideas and opinions WHETHER OR NOT YOU AGREE!?

I do not agree with everything he has said- but I do think that too many people that are focused on how much money they can make from dispensaries etc.. are doing a dis-service to the cause by making it look like just a bunch of (as THEY put it- not me) "Legalized Corner Pot dealers" instead of legitimate businesses there to support the community and patients...

They aren't being shut down by the Voters, or the Doctors... or even the Cops... they are being shut down by Shutte, Schnieder and all their little kiss-ass Republican Cronies by using their interpretation of the Law as it was written at the time it passed- and it did NOT have any language allowing for dispensaries or compassion clubs..Who the F** MISSED THAT before putting it on the ballot???

They want this to be an INDUSTRIAL State... and Compassion doesn't fit in....

he says the same shit every fucking thread. same opinion. Nothing at all even remotely medical. He has his opinion and each of us have ours. My opinion is that we are ALL here for one reason, medical marijuana. Except him, he's here for profit. To the point the whole forum is fucked. That's why. Enough is enough. Every thread he states an opinion, people talk shit to him, he acts like a poor victim - then dishes it out. Over and over again. I kept my mouth shut cuz I thought he'd provide a service here. He hasn't. IMO anyway.
