think it is 16 unless you are scheduled for ag.
I keep seeing folks mention "AG". Such a designation makes no difference when it comes to weed/plant counts. It's a Statewide rule no matter what PUD designation you are living under.
Jan. 1 2018....it's all gonna change radically on the med side.

There are new penalties coming for overrages as well.

Wrong.
HB 1220
The house committee brought up the fact that ag properties would not be affected during the hearing. During the hearing there was a woman from Eastern CO that explained she had ag property then the bill committee told her she would not be affected by it.
I suggest everyone reads through the bill. HB1220 has no mention of agriculture zoning in it.
Looks like grows of more than 24 plants are ok at multiple residences or on non residential zoned properties.
I'd still like to see this challenged (as a constitutional violation [especially in the case of medical]) but it's likely that it will not happen OR if it does, the challenge will be thrown out of court.

Whoops, forgot that
Says 16 on the page but the actual bill reads 12.

Plant counts are pretty disingenuous, imo, for the purpose of controlling a given operators production rates.
A limit to grow (cannopy) area would serve the purpose far more effectively.
I mean... A person could do 100 plants @ 1/sq/ft in a 10 x 10 area or they could do 4 huge 5x5 plants.
No counting necessary... Just a tape measure.
Smart producers that grow for the BM will just learn to grow 5+lb plants!

I stand corrected. However, check those tax bills....because I live in an Agriculturally designated PUD on every map there is available....yet...according to my county...because I pay RESIDENTIAL taxes, not AG taxes, I do not fall under "Ag" allowances.
Either way...we are losing rights every year...and that's why we ignore all of it here.

I tried to warn ya'll this was going to happen, but I was called chicken little for saying so.
Be prepared for more regulation in the future.
Maybe even elimination of residential grows altogether.
I still say vote no, before it is too late!
But in CO. it is already too late, so get ready for the corporate cannabis takeover.
Medical will soon be a thing of the past, but this sort of thing can not happen without a vote of the people right...LOL

The powers that be will tell you something too the effect of... "per property"...
Just a guess...
I honestly don't worry about this stuff guys. Even though I've had 99 plant count cards every year while they were legal, I still ran a tight ship. Nice to neighbors, helped them out, always had double filters on everything, didn't do sketchy things, etc etc.
Reality is, if the police ever come knocking, they're not coming in without a warrant. There is no way to "smell" how many plants you have. 12 plants can smell like 99. Be respectful, but don't let them in. Unless you're out of line and being unprofessional, I don't see plant counts in legal states as a problem. Doesn't keep me up at night.

There are several counties in CO that have already put up counts higher than the state. Some are also instituting a pay to play option basically, charging you for any plants over their selected count. While that is highway robbery...at least some people won't be going to jail for their plants.
I've heard/read this. Know of anywhere on the web with a list of these counties and their accepted plant counts?
