    Bad Caregiver???

    If my understanding is correct (it may not be), it's almost impossible to change something once it's been passed as a proposition in Arizona. The law got changed a few years back because Arizonans got pissed about passing propositions, only to have them neutered or disassembled by the state...

    Arizona Growers Thread

    Last I checked, dispensaries would have to produce 70% of their own material on site; they could receive up to 30% from another dispensary, or off-site growers who (BTW) cannot be unduly compensated for their material. In other words, they could be compensated no more than expenses incurred in...

    Arizona Growers Thread

    The two options would be: 1) A ballot proposition to change that 25-mile rule. I think once people found out the Arizona Medical Marijuana Project put it in there for monopoly purposes, people would generally be against it. or 2) Be a caregiver for someone who lives outside the 25-mile radius.

    Arizona strains

    This is the first I've grown MJ in >25 years, so what I know about it comes from the Internet. It's some of Kyle Kushman's work, indica-dominant, with Purple Afghani and Hindu Kush as parents (or some sites say). It gets excellent reviews, and is known for its long-lasting effects (~3 hours). I...

    Who's Applying for Medical Marijuana Cards in Arizona?

    I note that most of the clinics are offering "no 'script, no pay" guarantees. If you don't qualify, you don't pay for the visit. Bring your medical records; if you don't have them, they can get them, but it may cost you a little either way- not all doctor's offices are willing to give you copies...

    Amending mm rules

    If you use PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), you can find references to add to your work. Marijuana + insomnia comes up with 31 hits- many of which are not relevant, but still. Then you can use Google Books (http://books.google.com/) for the same thing. Use Worldcat...

    How do I Talk to My Doctor? Help! Appointment Coming Up

    Ask him how he feels about HIPAA. Fines and sanctions are big bucks to these guys. Anyway- good luck in getting a 'script. Sorry about the hassles you're having.

    Proposed Rules on Medical Marijuana are Illegal, "Cruel and Unreasonable,"

    Of course, the DEA has continued its raids on dispensaries. In fact, they recently stated that enforcement and prosecution is a "core priority." I'm going to guess the agents in Arizona (hi, guys!) are warming up for their own time in the spotlight.

    So that 25 mile Radius Rule

    Well, that, and your principals need to be state residents for at least 3 years. Now, having current residents start a store for you- that seems to be de rigueur, as gauged by the current climate here.

    So that 25 mile Radius Rule

    The proposed rules has it that if there's a dispensary within 25 miles, you MUST buy from a dispensary (not necessarily the closest one, but still), and you can NOT grow your own. So, it screws over anyone who's sick because then they need to buy weed at $300/oz or whatever, rather than growing...

    Locked Facility

    Well, if you'd like to make the dispensaries really nervous, let's start yammering about a ballot proposition to get rid of the 25-mile rule, shall we? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arizona_ballot_proposition In order to make it onto the ballot, you need a petition that is signed by 10% the...

    Locked Facility

    For dispensaries, it must be within an "enclosed, locked facility." If growing outdoors, that means 10' walls, etc. If growing indoors, it means "A building with four walls and a roof or an indoor room or closet." And then the specifications after that (two references in the latest draft...

    Locked Facility

    It's more like "enclosed." The word "locked" appears in the draft only twice, both times associated with dispensaries. For an individual grower, the grow would have to be "enclosed," meaning either inside your home (or other structure with walls and a ceiling, or a closet), or (heh) an outdoor...

    I Hate being Wrong

    If you got that from here: http://www.keytlaw.com/arizonamedicalmarijuanalaw/the-mmd-law/ars-%C2%A7-36-2812/ note at the end: Caution: 1998 Prop. 105 applies. Proposition 105 from 1998 (and proposition whatever from 1996) were both passed, but both were thrown away because the wording was...

    nutrients shelf life

    Fox Farm Cha Ching is nothing more than salts, some kelp, and humic acid. Provided there's no precipitate at the bottom, it's probably good indefinitely. Even if there is a precipitate, if you can get that to dissolve, it should be fine. Fox Farm Beastie Bloomz is even more stable; it's mostly...

    Help my Ph tester crapped out on me

    Sounds like you may have a bad connection; does jiggling the BNC connector (where the probe wire enters the case) change things? If so, you may need to crack the case and re-solder a lead somewhere.

    Yellow Leaves, do they stay or do they go.... *PIC*

    Yellow is a "flag" for insect pests; aphids, etc. are commonly entrapped using yellow sticky cards, used as indicators in the greenhouse as to when pests may have started an invasion. They will seek out the color yellow as it indicates foliage with weakened defenses. In a sealed grow room, this...

    automatic ph adjuster

    When in veg, your plants are sucking down nitrogen; removing nitrogen (from ammonium nitrate or potassium nitrate) doesn't shift the pH quite so much. In these forms (ammonium and nitrate), nitrogen isn't much of a buffer system. Phosphates, on the other hand, are very good for forming buffers...
