Strains Storing Legality

I was wondering how one would beable to store their different strains without being accused of dealing. Im aware that being caught in posession with multiple bags could bring about charges of 'intent to sell". So i assume having multiple jars would be no different. The only way i see to avoid storing in seperate containers would be to store in one container seperated with dividers. Like one of those 3 flavored popcorn tins. Appreciate any insight on this or personal experiences.

First, we don't know your limitations and what caterogy u fit under (recommendations from doctors, mmp card holder, just a regular happy toker, etc)... when you know where u fit under and what rules and regulations apply to you then you would know what you can carry, how much, and what proctection you have under the law... make sense???

Local state laws or exemptions do not apply here. The fact is that under federal law you would be looked at the same way. So i want to know what would bring about charges of intent to sell. would 2 plastic bags and a scale qualify as this? would 4 jars and a scale? would 2 jars and no scale? would 2 lbs in one jar and a scale?
Im not talking about just weight or plant pentaltys. Those are easily looked up by state or are stated on your medical card. The intent to sell thing doesnt seem to be defined and im certaintly not doing this. I dont want to be wrongly accused for somthing.

i disagree that "under federal law you would be looked at the same way"...that all depend on what court system you will be under...yes, under federal law and juristrictions can override certain state law, but if you were charged with the [/FONT][FONT=&quot]"intent to sell"[/FONT][FONT=&quot] under state law, then only state law apply....at least with state law you have certain protection concerning your issues and favorable court ruling (medical marijuana in this case)... if you were charge under federal law then its federal, which is much stricter and harsh if found guilty...the feds usually go after really large amount, cross state activities, mail, bluh bluh....so if you are a small fish then local state law should be important for you because under the new U.S Attorney General guildlines, federal agency are now focus on large and organized grow...

To answer your other question or just giving my 2 cent many factor plays into this scenario with the intent to sell... however, most intent to sell cases (medical marijuana) have either been rejected or appealed by the appealate court..... anytime you are caught with a questionable amount with or without a scale, in general you will always be accused of doing an illegal activities... next step is court...but if you were a mmp patient then you have less hassle dealing with law enforcement (given the amount) and it might not lead you to court in the first place .. thats why i ask if you were a mmp card holder or as such, because case law regarding medical and criminal marijuana differ...most likely you will have to defend yourself in court... if the situation was something like a few pounds, with a gun, lots of cash, and bluh bluh then most likely the juror will find you guilty given that there were other factors that played into this scenario....there isn't any specific thing that will charge you with the intent to sell (except being caught exchanging cash or goods)... sometimes it can be a combination of things that the jurors find within their reasons to think the person has the intent to sell like the example i listed above....the important thing is not to get caught with "exchange of cash"...Thats what intent to sell basically is... not the actually cash itself, but the exchanging between people.. although the word "intent to sell" is vague, the judge and jurors will define that for you...

Note: I hope this helps you or anyone else..if not then i probably didn't explain good enough.....the amount range you listed should not cause you to worry too much: oh, when i said limitations, i wasn't just talking about plants...

I see what your saying. Thanks for the reply that helped. I guess theres no real defined answer for my question and thats why we have the court system.

any state having a scale would be considered intent to sell text messages about selling is intent, depends on the cop who arrested/stopped u and the PA who will deal with ur case when you get to court theres many factors here in wa if your legal 90% ofcops wont even hassle you but thatalso depends on your attitude too,...

So jack your saying just having a scale in your house would be intent to sell? Even if you dont have Seperate bags for resale? That seems pretty silly because any serious personal grower or user is going to have a scale for weighing doses or weighing there crop even just out of curiosity for how much it weighs. Not to mention they can be used for many different things beside weighing to sell weed. Now if somone had a scale, multiple bags, large amounts of cash, gun then i can see how you could be charged. Just having a scale that sounds pretty scary because thats not proof alone in reality.

All med users should have a good scale. Weigh the meds you buy, make sure they are the right amount. Also weigh out your allotted amount of meds from your medical grow.

I wanna see the cop or DA that tries the intent to sell charge on me cause I have a 'scale'. My lawyer loves making money.

It doesn't matter how silly it is. Scales are an instant "Attempting to Distribute". If you plan on having multiple jars of buds, be smart, don't have scales. Scales are used to find exact weights and figures. If you are like me, you have $1000 (cash), a scale to weigh out your bags in case someone is fucking with you OR to make sure you don't smoke over a dub a day, and you carry a large amount of bud. I've sold maybe 5 times in the 8 years I've been smoking. I just like having money, I like knowing how much I smoke, and I like to have as much smoke as I can, so that i never have to worry about "Is my bag getting low". Now if I was to get pulled over, would the cops believe this? Absolutely not. I have a large amount of cash, a scale, and over an ounce of bud. Even if you don't sell, if it looks like you do, that it CAN (not it will but it is in the realm of possibility) that jurors will find you in attempting to distribute. Fucked up, but that's the game we play.
