The penalty for an illegal grow of 6 plants in Sacramento County (outdoors) is a written warning on first offense.
$100 per incident thereafter.
You may find similar punishments in the other counties.
And that’s why nobody pays any attention to them.
Lots of small growers in Desert Hot Springs with very little business saavy.
It’s taken them a good year to start construction of their warehouse growing hydroponic systems.
Warehouses are just now being erected. Probably operational in about 3-6 months.
The businesses aren’t being backed by large money as they don’t even know how to buy and develop the land. Hard for them to get loans as they don’t prepare business plans for venture capital.
They are very ripe for large corporate takeover once established.
But it’s “entry level” on the job training. Next up crack salesmen “clockers” on the street corners, and who knows— the big money is in heroin. Kno’ dat’s right. A nation of dumbed out “free market” idiots. Then if will be time for corporate big timers (RJ Reynolds, Phillips...) to step in and “normalize” the trade. “Customers” that’s how the clockers talk about them now.
Next they should talk to the police elements— because “legal” has not reduced the crime. Legal is taxed, and like “shine” illegal is not, but they match the price and avoid the tax. Entire thing in CA is quite f’d up and run by greedy political types and their “financiers”. From observation in the states (CO and CA).
And their “labor management” is boffo too. Love them “colombian neckties” and trussed up bloating family member’s bodies. It’s all good the efficiency of thuggery, and the methodology of graft.
I’ll just ignore those laws too.
“looking for pure CBD actually”
tons of reputable manufacturers sell pure CBD online to pretty much all comers
this is one gets consistently good reviews and is the least expensive:

As another poster pointed out, when harvest time comes, many will have their fill for the season. What then for the commercial producers?
A bale of hay weighs perhaps forty or fifty pounds and costs about $10. Pot may be a little harder to grow, but the per ounce cost will certainly end up at less than $10. I pity anybody who thinks they are going to get rich growing a "weed".
Huh? Nevermind, just pass the Doritos.
It’s all about edibles
Trust me
Smoking is stupid
Edibles are a planet saver
I wonder how John Boehner is doing with that marijuana company he joined, lol!
There was no concentrated effort at central planning or regulating, except among a few hopeless greedy tax-collectors.
As you stated, the personal growers make the market almost unnecessary.
Unlike tobacco, booze which have all types of economic scale problems in processing, cannabis grows itself — the extra effort you place in has rewards in quality, quantity, obviously but is really can be minimal.
In other words, no major steps in the process that act as an excuse for the government to come in and regulate.
This is Freedom.
That is why the government hates it and will lie endlessly.
See our ignorant, chicken-livered, pintsize backstabbing attorney general for one.
“The Central Planners and Regulators have screwed it all up.”
They may have to go with their old standby - make it mandatory.
I’m getting the munchies just reading this thread.
Lunch time!
