To say that California's MMJ law is "sketchy" is an understatement. Basically it covers personal usage. Legally, patients who are patients themselves at a single collective can grow for other patients. That is, I could grow up to 6 mature plants for you if: you are legitimate and you have me grow (give permission) for you. I'd post a copy of your recommendation and state photo ID in my grow room. The law is not sketchy when talking about CARETAKERS. The letter of the law defines a Caretaker as someone responsible for a qualified patients needs. That is to say ALL their needs. Food, Doctor's visits, therapy, and a host of other services and responsibilities. Like its' been posted above, if you are legal then no worries. If any one should be worried it'd be the seller... The most important fact is that the Feds aren't after "little people". Big suppliers especially those who abuse their situation are those who they are mostly after. Craigs List seems to have a fair amount of weird and sleezy people on it. I'd be most worried about pests. Anything less than $15.00 each would raise suspicion with me unless getting a lot >100 @ $12- each...
I once needed a $hit-load of clones, like 144! I went to CL and found at least 3 new listings daily. I looked foreward to reading them. Imust have sent nearly 40-50 different email out to listed sellers. EVERY person either didn't reply at all, or later came back with an excuse as to why they couldn't come through. Most (85%) were no reply. I think they were people that had nothing better to do with their time. Simply mess with patients. I ended up going on-line which turned out to be a total devastation! That is another story best suited to a post that talks about bad experiences with Collectives or Dispensaries or whatever they call themselves. Even a local dispensary can be risky. I have gotten and have heard of many others too, getting mites or something else, from the clones they got from a dispensary, friend or wherever; it is the #1 source of contamination. I think these bastards are homogeneous to our environment
