Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Colorado Republican Senator Corey Gardner went toe to toe over legal marijuana in Colorado on January 10, 2018. The Attorney General has been threatening a federal crackdown on legalized marijuana for some time now, and the Republican Senator, among politicians from both sides of the aisle, takes issue with the Attorney General’s stance. CBS Denver interviewed Adam Orens, Founder of Marijuana Policy Group, about the effect a crackdown might have on Colorado, whose system of handling legalized marijuana is a model for other states and major cities across the U.S. that are learning how to […]

A concept well known to individuals familiar with the industry, the Extended Plant Count (aka. EPC or Higher Plant Count) seems to be the 800-pound gorilla in the room; an obvious limiting reagent to the industry’s ability to supply the medicinal demands of its patients while offering little legal framework for comfortable navigation of its use by key players in the life cycle of the medical marijuana plant. From the patient who needs them and the doctor who recommends them to the cultivator who grows them, Extended Plant Counts keep people looking over their shoulders. In the absence of clear […]

With the legalization of marijuana use in Colorado comes jurisdictional limits to the number of plants that can be grown in residences. The increased plant counts Pueblo residents are limited to is 12 for those living in an apartment or duplex and 18 for those in a single-family dwelling. While the Colorado Constitution allows six plants, with three or fewer being mature, flowering plants that are producing a usable form of marijuana, it allows for more if medically necessary. With the extended plant count Pueblo residents are afforded, the law does take into consideration the treatment efficacy medical marijuana provides […]

There is currently a lot of debate and confusion in the marijuana community surrounding the topic of increased or extended plant counts. Colorado Springs residents may not be clear on the rules for MMJ high plant count. Colorado Springs medical cannabis patients have the right to grow additional plants at home, but an ordinance passed in 2016 by the Colorado Springs City Council limits all home grows. This ordinance is making obtaining an approved higher or extended plant count more difficult, if not impossible, to attain. The cap on the number of plants applies to each residence, or “housing unit”, […]

For many veterans, medical marijuana can mean the difference between being able to function normally, cope with daily stress, and handle difficult medical situations, or suffering, often in silence. There is a growing movement to convince the federal government to remove cannabis from the Schedule I substance list, and permit research into its effectiveness in treating such medical situations such as chronic pain, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a condition many veterans deal with as a result of their time serving our country. In early 2017, the American Legion, our nation’s largest veterans service organization, sent a letter to […]

New and interesting ways of consuming cannabis to relieve chronic pain are being developed daily, and these medicinal, topical treatments are providing relief to some of the most unlikely consumers, including senior citizens. Our medical marijuana doctors in Colorado Springs and Pueblo have seen great […]
