Looking into moving to VT, question about # of plants...

I too would like to know this.

I believe it was worded to NOT work

Vermont really doesn't want it here but do to public pressure and the majority of voters approving medical marijuana they didn't exactly have a choice. The laws are very strict here as anyone who lives here knows and yep... 7 it is. Seven (7) plants growing...only two (2) plants at any given time can be "flowering" meaning as soon as they start producing little buds even though it's not ready to smoke yet, they are considered to be "flowering" and you can only have 2 of them at a time doing this. The other plants you have have to be at a lower growing rate than the flowering ones..in other words, all other plants growing cannot be in the "flowering stage." If you have 5 plants that are flowering yes, you would either need to get rid of them or have a caregiver who doesn't have any plants started grow and hold them for you but that caregiver can only have 2 flowering plants at a given time also!! Between you both, the caregiver and patient, neither of you can have more than seven (7) TOTAL plants between you both...meaning I could grow three, my caregiver could grow four but between us both there can only be two flowering plants at a given time. Confused yet?! Bet your bippy!! That's the way they wanted it! They put all of this into the very laps of the people who want to eradicate it, even though it's a massive conflict of interest. So say they finally do open a dispensary here, if you yourself grow, you cannot go in, if you have a caregiver that grows for you, you cannot get in. The only way you will be allowed in that dispensary is if you have nothing at all including a caregiver and you cannot grow your own, YOU can go in but it will cost you....the same as where you're getting it now I'm sure because b.m. is still flourishing and they want to charge the same prices as b.m. God forbid if you turned around and sold your meds!! That's what they don't want so an ounce will be $380.00 to $400.00. I don't know about everyone else but as I use this for my pain I go through a lot in a month, like 3-4 ounces so paying that price will never be feasable for me!! I don't like that fact that they sent all us patients paperwork with a bunch of questions for us to answer and send back and they didn't even put any of these into consideration when they wrote the laws for the dispensary!

Honestly now---- Do you expect any better from our lovely Green Mountain state? ! It took 19+ years for a walMart up in St.Albans to get a building permit! This is true! Vermont is closed to the average person. Closed to business UNLESS your wealthy , political, or corrupt this is the place for you!

This is indeed true. The number of plants is 2, not as far as I know some quirky combination of 7 young and 2 old etc, it's 2. Look on the NORML site they have the current law. There has been a bill introduced in the state legislature on the senate side for decriminalization but it's one ounce, so the current law is almost better.

VT politics and these "movements" are largely phony, pretending to be one thing they think will appeal to the "cool crowd" while not being that way at all.

Everything in the state is designed to get you to part with your dollar in the form of taxes to pay for a bloated and inefficient state government and its social programs.

This is a bad rap, Eyes, and sounds very much like you don't know much about Vermont politicians or how things work at the statehouse. Our politicians are most definitely not rich, corrupt slime bags. They are amateurs. Except for a very few of the top offices, Vermont politicians are part time legislators who occupy diverse and usually very modest positions in their local communities. And strangely, despite this being the most liberal state in the country, we are conservative. In many ways as "old New England" as you can get. There are plenty of dummies holding offices and legal weed progress will continue to be slower than other places. But things will improve at a deliberate pace. Decrim will pass this year. Maybe you would like Mississippi or Kansas better.
