There's a caregiver in SE Michigan that will grow any strain you request from their 90 strain choice menu, 200/zip... you're in the wrong state.

well i stopped in to try the new BHO oils they got in (afgoo and headband) and i took a better look at upstate.its hard for me to judge by that picture you have compared to cured nugs in a jar.but the % were - THC = 8.81% and CBD= 0.02%. think they have it described as good for inflammatory and such.at $17 a gram i didnt feel like buying it since i spent close to $200 on oils but figure id let you know the exact percentages.

I did notice that the owners of the compassion centers here look don't act or sound like the dispensary owners in CO or CA. Something just feels wrong about what's going on here..
Im over the whole dispensary hype thing... everyone sees it for what it is now that its actually open. Its a buisness an ran to profit money and lots of it.
I have already seen prices go up everywhere. Cardholders to people who still illegal. It all comes down to customers. They pay high prices at dispensary an cardholders see it an will want high prices themselfs. Its already taken into effect somewhat.
patients = customers an they drowned themselfs for shopping at a dispensary because of the hype rather than what is affordable and equivalent.

Yet in the regulations it states that a "compassion center" is supposed to be a NOT FOR PROFIT entity. and somewhere in there I read 5 patient max per caregiver yet you are only allowed a max of 12 plants in each cycle and 24 in each total, I wonder if it was a typing error.....

How can they be illegal? they've been operating for over 2 years now without a single issue. they deliver right to your door. they have the same rules as a normal caregiver can only carry 2.5 per patient (you are delivering to) max amount of 5oz at all times. As long as the law is followed I don't see where the problem is. there is no regulation for a delivery service anywhere in the RI state medical marijuana act. last revised march 2010. Delivery is only mentioned in caregiver and compassion centers. so with all these seminars about delivery service medical I can't possibly believe that the current ones open and operating for more than 2 years are illegal and can be busted at anytime. They advertise in the paper as well as online. They would have been hit at least once by now if there was anything illegal about it.
cause people dont wanna believe it... it says clear as day a cardholder can GIVE another cardholders who is NOT registered meds, GIVEN NO COMPENSATION PAID. so unless that delivery service is driving aroundfree then they are illegal. easy as that. people who advertise on craigslist an paper ect is all illegal.
they are retarded for doing so. all it takes is a call saying to deliver an oz to a cop an when they take money for it then bam they are all loosing cards an getting felony charges. yes cops have patient cards also. also, they can take all advertising from past 2 yrs an say they selling drugs publicly for 2 yrs in court.
people just dont like to think its illegal to make them feel better i guess.

yes they do. and that is what the CCI(Cannabis Career Institute) is teaching people. How to open and operate a dispensary or delivery service operating COMPLETELY UNDER STATE GUIDELINES within the law. Robert F. Caulkin the guy in charge wrote a book titled "Start your own Medical Marijuana Delivery Serveice ; The Mobile Caregiver's Handbook. 8 steps to start and run a delivery service within the laws of your state. all legal under the Medical Marijuana Act. the thing is going on at some warwick hotel right now from like 9am to 7pm or something like that. 250 to join the school for a lifetime membership(in case you need any info you were too high to remember) according to their website there have already been over 2000 delivery services nationwide started because of the information they teach. so again I do not believe that the delivery service is illegal. the only difference between a delivery service and dispensary is a building. same rules and regulations apply from patient access to security. Here is what the GREEN CANNA INC site says. "About Us[h=2]Green Canna Caregivers Club Delivery Service[/h]Green Canna Caregivers Club, Inc. is a mutual-benefit nonprofit corporation specializing as a Providence Medical Marijuana delivery service.

How is this considered legal? I assume the collective only delivers to patients registered under the collectives c/g cards? 5 patients per grower?

they deliver for registered dispensaries. RI has no laws to control collectives.
Just because a service hasn't been busted, does not make it legal. There are 2 approved dispensaries by the state right now, anyone else selling to patients that arent registered under their c/g's is illegal. Even as a dispensary, they "customers" have to be registered to the dispensary.
Give the state police a shout and ask them what they think. We had a sit down with them about opening a co-op in North Kingston to help supply the dispensaries, get 12 grows out of neighborhoods and into an industrial, protected setting, yadda yadda, suits n ties, the whole bit. The end result was...."although the law doesnt say you can or can't, I dare ya to try" Thats when we decided to wait till there was proper legislation written to address this because regardless of what the DOH says or how the judge rules in your case, the state police are the first hurdle as they are the ones who decide if they want to come thru your door or not.
And don't think there arent "protected" groups right now in this fine, corrupt ass state. If you are one of them,...go for it, kudos, if you're not, thats a risk and a big one in my eyes.

http://webserver.rilin.state.ri.us/Statutes/TITLE21/21-28.6/21-28.6-4.HTM the law clearly states : (g) A primary caregiver may receive reimbursement for costs associated with assisting a registered qualifying patient's medical use of marijuana. Compensation shall not constitute sale of controlled substances......................... no laws to break by excepting money

So these delivery services here in RI also require you to register with them and make them one of your caregivers? I wanted to use one of my 2 possible caregiver spots to some sort of compassion/ dispensary/ delivery service. The other one hopefully I can hook up with a good trustworthy local caregiver with a good variety. It's been a long time since I've gotten top quality buds... I was getting some a while back off a middle man/ dealer who supposedly was buying off a caregiver grower. The problem was all the bud was of a similar stain I believe some sort of Kush hybrid and the effects were not really what I need for my pain issues. The buds always looked nice, good Crystallization but it was just not my cup of tea. Seems like all the stuff I have seen lately is very similar.. Back when I was smoking a lot in 2000-2002 I was getting lots of variety and some of it was the best stuff I have ever seen to this day! I'm still looking for something comparable to this strain I had back then, I was told it was norther lights but not sure.. These buds were very dense, lime green and honest to god looked like they were dunked in granulated sugar the crystals were so large it looked almost pure white. As far as pain relief it was top notch and felt like I got punched in the head as soon as I took a hit.. The body high was intense and long lasting, with a mild head buzz. It seems like the quality isn't as good now a days but maybe it is just the circle of people I run with now.

http://webserver.rilin.state.ri.us/Statutes/TITLE21/21-28.6/21-28.6-12.HTM they say as long as you apply are approved and register with the state it can be done. it's the law plain and simple. back when slater was approved there was still doubt as to whether or not this would all work out. which it has even with all the waiting periods, fees, limits, and restrictions

the police dont like co-ops where there is 1 big garden.a caregiver with 2-5 patients is allowed 24 flower,12 vedge.anything over that amount in 1 location and you are in high risk of arrest.these people that get 2-3 or more caregivers together with all their patients try to play with the numbers and try to run a massive amount.co-ops like that are basically unlicensed compassion centers and these are the grows they are going after.

Is that a total of 24 flower, 12 veg? or 24 flower, 12 veg per patient? Am not at all familiar with RI guidelines, Michigan ones seem to be more than a bit different.
