GrowRock, I'm not supposed to engage in personal commentary, but you are continually insisting that Licensed Producers are gouging their customers, so I ask you: what would you charge? You said you can produce your own for $1/gram, so would you sell it for that? Do you work for free? Would you...
Greenleaf Medicinals is not affiliated with any clinic at this time, so I cannot comment on the $400, but I can say that we do get a lot of requests from people looking for a compassionate doctor. A lot of health practitioners are reluctant to sign, regardless of the need of their patient, and...
You wont be able to apply for a renewal under the current rules because Health Canada is no longer accepting MMAR applications after March 31, nor are they issuing any new licenses. In essence, if you had an existing license then you are grandfathered until further notice. The March 21 ruling...
I believe they charge $400, but they take care of collecting the paperwork, helping fill out the forms and scheduling the appointment with the doctor. The fees are not covered by your health plan.
The difference between a person who is a medical marijuana patient and someone who just uses marijuana for medicine is simply that one person has access to a compassionate doctor and the other does not. It's not a fair system, but such is the world we live in. In that regard I should mention...
Juicing is not an option, regulation only allows LP's to sell dried marijuana.
As for charity, I think it is unlikely that there will be any direct funding to medical marijuana producers. More likely would be that people's medical plans would start to recognize the medical benefits of marijuana...
Thank you Shawa, I appreciate the support. I realize that a lot of people are upset about the changes to the medical marijuana system (overturned on Friday) and I sympathize with their concerns. I admit, there is no way that we can offer prices that are lower than what you can achieve at home -...
We can grow in anticipation, and we can stockpile. The stockpile limit is set by the government and is based on the security level you build to. Level 7 allows for around 100KG in storage, and level 11 allows for over 10,000kgs.
We are small in comparison to the other organizations that have...
Heh, somehow I doubt that BC hydro is interested in donating electricity to Greenleaf Medicinals, but I get your point.
The simple fact is that, just like anything else, it takes money to produce marijuana. We need to buy electricity and equipment and pay people to grow it and trim it and...
We feel like that the lack of derivatives is a problem for a lot of people who want legal access to these products but are stuck buying them on the black market. Making products like oil and shatter, ect. takes time, and capital investment, and requires the use of solvents and a degree of...
Hi again, sorry for the delayed response. I realize that buying marijuana from a Licensed Producer will be more expensive than it would be to produce it yourself, but we have to comply with a whole host of regulations that make production more expensive and time consuming. As I stated in one of...
Hi german1,
I would be lying if I said that the February 21st ruling didn't affect our business, obviously that change is going to have an impact on the number of customers who are inclined to sign up with a Licensed Producer. Business will definitely be harder in the short term but statistics...
