Is their any sort of legality where I cannot grow at my friends house even if I post documentation at the grow site?

Or can it only be on your property?

Draw a lease for a dollar a month for the grow area, then pad lock it. This will legal seperate you from your friend as much as possible. You will need to make sure you can be there on the drop of a dime in case he needed to explain him self to law enforcement.

If you have your permit, you should know, and understand the law, like the back of your hand. Once you make yourself legal, there is no point in putting yourself into, an illegal position.

A medical marijuana patient, is allowed to have a "caretaker" ie. person to care for him, and his medical needs (that includes producing the medication). As long as you have a copy of the original permit, posted within view of wherever you have plants growing, with a photocopy of his drivers license, your drivers license, and a hand written, or typed, and signed letter, stating the name of the patients caretaker (your friend), and have him sign it in agreement. You should be fine. Depending on what state you are in, your number of allowed plants will vary, but whatever it is, do not go over the limit. If you are allowing your caretake to grow for you, at the caretakers house, anything you do beyond the law (as in go over your legal limit of plants) all the blame will come down on the caretaker, or whos ever house it is.

Another thing, nobody besides the caretaker is allowed to witness anything that has to do with the cultivation, or consumption of the medicine.

Remember, the permit doesnt give you the right to grow it, it only gives you a defense against the law, to prove that you need the medicine.

Good Luck.

In short, yes, you can grow at your friends and most likly you will be completely fine. I had my place burglarized and the cops actually recommended I grow at a friends place versus having my plants at my own residence in an appartment building. If you have your recommendation posted with a copy of your drivers license to accompany it your pretty much golden (at least in california you are). Your friend however isn't allowed to touch your plants unless they have a card as well.

However you should do your reading both at NORML and http://www.safeaccessnow.org/

Here is a blurb i wrote to a friend a while ago that has alil info concerning caregiver rights and shit:

Where I live I can legally posses 6 mature plants and/or (depends on who you ask) 12 plants under 12". Those are California guidelines though. Oakland - a city near me allows 72 mature plants per patient. In addition to plants I am allowed to posses I believe .5 - 2 lbs at my dwelling and 1/2 lb on me at any time. (again also depends on the county and who you ask)

The rules for growing on a larger scale than personal use are a bit wishy washy. If you are a legal caregiver you can grow and posses pot for your patients. However what alot of people don't understand is that a caregiver is more than someone that distributes pot. A caregiver is someone that administers care and has nothing to do with marijuana except that marijuana is deemed a medication and caregivers have the right to posses and administer medication to those they give care to. In order to be a legit caregiver the patient must have a problem that requires a caregivers services and you must visit/administer care at least weekly. Many counties also require that caregivers and patients reside in the same county and you must obtain a caregiver certificate from the same county.

Most people don't obdide by these rules and most get away. Some however don't...Eddy Lepp, an american pot god, who I had the fortune of meeting just got sent to prison for I believe a minimum of 10 years for growing with caregiver rights that didn't pan out - legit patients but couldn't prove he gave any other service other than distributing pot.

Another thing to consider is the local police. I live in a very liberal part of california that has had tons of exposure to pot (I live right next to san fransisco). The police that came to my appartment didn't even varrify my recommendation nor asked about plant limits. They even stated that now a days with the laws as they are you can grow about as much as want as long as they dont catch u selling it. They also RECOMMENDED that I grow at a friends who has a private residence - they thought that was much wiser than growing in my appartment. Basically if you're not selling or growing on a huge scale and have your card your golden. Cops are humans also - they don't want trouble or to get you into it and most dont care about pot as long as your not wasting their time over it.

If you want to be completely legal draw up a rental contract with your friend and rent a closet from him for $1 a month. That way anything in the 'closet' is never legally in his possesion. These are technicalities though that will get you off in court however how stop a police for taking your plants and shit at the very beggining. But again - if there is a copy of a recommendation posted the police generally want nothing to do with it. I'ts not worth their time in court to fuck with some guy growing a couple plants when you'll never go to jail.
