    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    No problem in winter. So you only have to use A/C if necessary in the blooming rooms in summer?

    95F would be nice and not too problematic. Tomatoes take about that just fine

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Extortion is actually driving I 502.The illegal growers say include use OR it is black market business as usual! And the Local Authorities?THEY say give us a bigger slice of the pot pie tax or we zone you out! Still waiting on SHB 2144 that bans pot bans. Legislature adjorns at the end of next...

    Dutch Seeds - Test

    I ordered seeds a over month ago from Dutch seeds and the sale is still "pending". NO response to e -mails asking why. Apparently it will be pending in perpetuity so back to Amsterdam seed bank it is

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Just listened to the LCB meeting of Feb 16. They are indeed cutting the Tier max by 30% ,not the individual applicant The New Goal is 11 to 13 million sq ft of canopy for Year 1 They had 35 million applied for. 30% are failing the application process. 30% are repeats, and 30% reduction for...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Cool solar power!That knocks the main cost- electricity- way down. Can't really do that where I live in W.Wa. due to trees and clouds I expect about the same harvest from my 99 plants. I get 1.5 pounds a week I'll be as happy as a clam

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Did some research. By limiting growers to one location they knocked out 33% of the tier three canopy space. Thin the herd by another third for other reasons and limit the survivors to 70% and you are down a whopping 71% in max tier 3 canopy space

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    About 1000 applied for tier 3. If they knocked out a third for various and sundry reasons - 1000 ft fule, no existing building, no viable business plan , no money, etc--and they limited the survivors to 70% of their max canopy, those two things alone knock down the max Tier 3 canopy from 30...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    More on testing:Is there going to be a mobile lab making his testing rounds and will he lable the product you have stored in jars for you?-- after he tests a sample that HE takes? And how much will this sample test cost? This makes the most sense to me to keep things honest

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Yeah good points. I'd get into cloning but I believe that would be deemed off subject So--YOU are doing weekly succession plantings too instead of going for 3 or 4 big crops a year? I love that strategy I can concentrate my harvest to one day a week. The same day I plant new seeds...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Okay let's say they started processing applications on Jan 2 after the Holidays and they had 10 people processing 4 each a day-- It would take 14 working weeks to go though all 2800 applications or about the 10 the of April--so I have some time yet

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    What you say is just an assumption. I paid money, they WILL get back to me yes or no,and if no,why. I don'tt hink they are going to say because I was too late to apply and therefore lost out.That would be quite unfair since they said ALL applications would be considerd as long as they were sent...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    I have purchased seeds from Vancouver seed bank and Amsterdam Seed bank with success. Amsterdam was particularrily effective, took a credit card and the delivery was swift Tried Nirvana, but cost $47 for an electronic funds transfer just for starts Tried a test order with Dutch seeds but a long...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Just called the LCB and they have not gotten around to my application yet. So I will be behind the first people to get a license by a month. But according to the rules I can go into flower production after only one week in operation-- if I have plants ready to do so regardless of source--- for...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Kind of scary to know they could grow all of WA pot needs on 3ea 80 acre farms in E.Wa, curing the product in silos over the winter on site- real easy security-- just ring the farm with razor wire-- but watch out for spider mites deliberately planted up wind as sabotage by overzealous...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Not really worried TOO much about a glut of pot since my production cost is $12 an ounce. I'm ready for a Price War if necessary. I'm willing to go as low as $50 an ounce if that is what it takes to get into the retail stores. Hopefuly it won't come to that -- I am hoping for $140--but Big Guys...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    Here's my math on the amount of pot needed in WA: Say 8% are regular or occassional users consuming on average an ounce a month--some a lot less some a lot more. That equates to a need for about 560,000 ounces a month or 6.8 million ounces a year x 28.4 grams per ounce = 190,848,000 grams...

    There is a bill in the Legislature that wil come up for a vote VERY soon probably by the end of next week that bans the pot bans. It passed a biparitsan committee 9-0. IF itpasses you will be able to grow pot anywhere that agricultural uses are allowed-- as King and Spokane Counties have...

    The I-502 Application Process and Operating plan

    I see no protocol in place for a Producer to sell to a Processor.To me it is obvious that as a producer you MUST harvest, dry the pot, weigh it, test it AND package it before you can sell it to ANYBODY And you are right. You MAY run into zoning problems IF you hold both a producer and processor...
