I have a MMJ garden that is 100% compliant with state law. I am curing my harvest and after it is done I will have more ready to use product than the law allows.

Have any of you sold your overage to a Dispensary in colorado? Can you tell me about your experience?

How much per oz did you get? Are they going to 1099 you at the end of the year? Any suggestions on friendly dispensaries to approach?

Thanks!

Does anyone have experience selling to dispensary in any legal state? I am wondering if there are certain "criteria" for medical grade smoke? Thanks to anyone who can help with this.

Ive sold to a few clubs. It's like pulling teeth trying to get 250/z out of em. Most want to pay 200. As far as criteria, it depends on the club. Some are really selective others will take anything at all.

I appreciate getting some response to my post. My medicine will be curing at least 2 more weeks before I try to sell it but I will report back here what the results are. My medicine is especially dank, all grown completely organic without any fertilizer, pesticides, etc.....cut down at the peak of ripeness, hand trimmed, dried to perfection and now being jar cured. I had thee plants of Super Lemon Haze and three of Jack Herer. The SLH is unbelievable. Hoping to get $250 and oz but have never sold to a dispensary and don't know what to expect. There are so many dispensaries in Denver now, not really sure where to start.

Starting March 1st it will be illegal to sell to a dispensary (or anyone else for that matter) in the city of Denver unless you are licensed as a dispensary.

Where did you get your info about March 01
I would like to look it up.
Haven't seen it in the new bill that was just passed.
And March 01 is before it was passed.
Thanks

I believe that they are talking about selling to the end user, not a lawful patient selling overages to licensed dispensaries. Are there any Lawyers here who can chime in?

I think its pretty clear.

On and after March, 1, 2010 it shall be unlawful for any person to sell or otherwise distribute any marijuana for medical use in Denver without obtaining a license to operate as a medical marijuana dispensary pursuant to the requirements of this article.

It doesnt say 'with the exception of lawful patients selling to dispensaries'.

I called the city of Denver licensing and they said this is in reference to dispensaries. It isn't governing wholesalers to dispensaries, she said they did not address the growing side of the industry in the city regulations and she has been overwhelmed with calls about it. That sounds pretty wide open to me.

I believe it does apply, the way I understand it and I've seen many posts about this on this site and other grow sites is in DENVER if you sell to a Dispensary that is in DENVER, and it is after March 1st, 2010, you will first have to pay that bullshit licensing fee and registration which is steep.

The application fee and registration fee is like 5,000 then every year thereafter is 2,000. There are a lot of people fighting this, I mean A LOT. I believe the pressure is going to cause the steep fee to be lowered or changed altogether.

All it is , is public officials wanting a cut of the action, some people's pockets are getting fat over this. It amounts to robbery and it causes people who need medical marijuana to have to pay super inflated prices, I mean the prices were already too much to begin with but now even more so in the Denver area.

I wouldn't even deal with any Dispensary in the Denver area because of this. I wouldn't supply them or even buy from them. I don't think this will last long, I really don't , there are pro-MMJ organizations fighting this bullshit super steep licensing fee.

Paying these yearly fee's still don't give any protection from the DEA assholes from raiding you, so why should they be paid? Lots of pressure needs to be put on changing this.

It even effects caregivers in the Denver area, if your supplying for more than 5 people, your required to pay the yearly fee of 2,000.

Last I heard Boulder was thinking about starting up the same yearly fees too. It needs to be stopped. Greedy politicians wanting a cut of the money but offering no protection from the law, why should they get anything? :wall:

Our lawyer, Warren Edson, hasn't advised against us dealing with caregivers with excess medicine. He's in the loop on this stuff.
Warren Edson is a great Attorney in Co and has done great things for the movement. Just keep close tabs on the progression of HB 1284. and If you are a dispensary or vender and needs a place to grow your meds in CO, In a legaly zoned area---send me a PM-----I can help you out...

Hello All:
The Bill Referred to is concerning the medical Marijuana licensing of Dispensaries and the requirements for Dispensaries which went into business in the City of Denver before March 1, 2010. No medical marijuana dispensary licensing was required until March 1 2010 and this Bill requires 'a medical marijuana License of all dispensaries' after March 1, 2010.
As the first line of the bill states 'For an ordinance concerning the licensing and regulation of medical marijuana dispensaries'.
THIS BILL WAS INSTATED CONCERNING City of Denver DISPENSARY LICENSING ONLY. NOW A REQUIREMENT starting March 01, 2010.
The City gave the Dispensaries until March 01, 2010 to acquire their license to operate in Denver.
It doesn't address Primary Caregivers selling their overage to dispensaries.
Again: This 'CITY OF DENVER' Bill is addressing dispensaries acquiring their medical marijuana CITY license before March 01, 2010 for the City of Denver.
People are mixing up this bill with HB10 1284. HB10 1284 is a STATE BILL which will require ALL Dispensaries in the STATE to acquire a license next year and which will require the $5,000.00 fee for the STATE licensing.

Its only going to get more expensive and regulated. Make sure to read through HB1284 and be prepared. The zoning and percentages of amounts that must be produced by individual dispensaries is key so prepare yourself for those requirements. If you need help with any of those issues send me a PM. If you have an address you are researching I can get you the zoning info for that location and have solutions that meet the proposed regulations in HB 1284. As well as solutions for the current local Denver County dispensary licensing requirements...
