Colorado: Caregiver misinformation

Guys, read amendment 20 to verify anything you read and anything anyone tells you. I keep hearing that caregivers in Colorado can grow an unlimited amount of weed because Amendment 20 does not specify. There are even some lawyers in Denver trying to fight a case with this argument. This is not true, and I just recently heard that this misinformation was repeated by a local professor at one of the colleges.

Amendment 20 clearly states that the caregiver is confined to 6 plants per person, and it specifically says 3 mature, 3 in veg.

Just an FYI for caregivers that might be operating illegally, but might not know it.
