The council is going to set some rules for commercial growers in the up coming session 2016.
They are a large group of growers here with their 99 plant count the local sheriff is OK with these grows.
I would hope the private growers like us can still go about our ways even after the big boys aquire their grow permits?

we are gonna just hunker down & hide in plain sight. I figure they will be busy at first policing all the commercial grows & busting the big outdoor growers. we Hope to fly under the radar for a couple years at least...

If you want to Commercial grow and your county doesn't ban it because they don't want permitted large scale grows then that's a good thing. Get your license and roll legit. What's happening now is a lot of the counties are banning any form of growing except small medical because if they don't set guidelines the state will for them. It's the small medical guy who is getting the short end of the stick because now there will be no more collective grows and now the counties have a soul right to say no commercial grows.
If I lived in a county that permitted it I sure as hell would be doing the footwork . They say licenses will not be available until 2018.
As things settle down more counties will come around .
I do see some lawsuits coming because of conflicts with SB 420 and prop 215.

You don't have to be a big guy. You just need your county to allow it . Or find one that does.

I don't want anything to do with a permit. If you look at all the red tape, it will cost 1/2mil$$ to set up a legal commercial grow & you will be regulated to death.
Our county will still allow medical up to 5 script per parcel. we plan to put greenhouses on different properties & grow 5 scripts per parcel....

They red tape for the cultivator does not sound that bad, just don't abuse the water ways and don't use chemical pesticides. As far as cost goes I don't think it will be like that.

Nothing on our farm at this time would meet regulations, we would have to doze it under & start from scratch.....

And 5 Scripps = a 25 x 20 area . 500 sq feet.There will be no more blowing it up and hiding below the radar unless local enforcement looks the other way and your neighbor who paid for a license isn't jelous because he bought a license and you didn't.

as soon as the gov declares a water emergency due to the next drought, I'm sure marijuana will loose out to wine grapes & cattle & get their water turned off...

You guys haven't built a permanent structure and aren' t pulling out of the creek or drain to it . What else matters . Nothing to a piece of dirt . Take a alfalfa field in the middle of Fresno per say ?

I don't think they will need a warrant to find out. All so if the cultivator was to sell to a store front they will ask for your paperwork. I know this is not always the case but.........
