Nursery License - how to get new genetics without facing possession charges

[Crazy Chester]

Due to the definition of "cannabis" in the state licensing laws - seeds and clones are included.

If genetics may only be acquired by licensed nurseries, how can California not have had its entire genetic library closed shut by the new laws?

How does a nursery acquire genetics that were not in the possession of a licensed nursery when the new licensing laws passed?

I asked this question of the state licensing authorities before the licensing laws went into effect - it was ignored.

Thoughts?

yeah the nursery biz is going to change with the new 6 clone count limit.

they had the 1st 2 weeks of this new legal year to bring in genetics and give them a tracking number.

after that they will have to come from a seed pop or probably thru renames to be legal.

Kevin Jodrey from Wonderland explains how this will work in this video.

Chunkypigs - thanks for the link!

I finally found someone who knows about this.

At least for genetics developed prior to January 1, 2018, I suppose a proposed licensee can always say he had the genetics in his stock prior to that date.

So, Kevin Jodrey reads the law the way I do.

And the really huge opportunity between now and July is with those who buy up genetics that are not currently in licensed nursery stock, so they can either be hired by the nursery or start their own with genetics no one else has.

Wow - it looks like it is all leading to not being able to purchase legally a top shelf truly healthy product. The only good product will be in individual hands and the black market.

The more things change, the more some things stay the same.

many are paying to place there genetic in Phylos Galaxy hoping to get some known marker. i.e. copyright? trademark?

But, what if you want a landrace that no one in California currently holds?

In most legal states the give the licensee 3-6 months to "acquire genetics" so to speak. Basically they turn their head for a few months while you bring in all your cuts and seeds. But you have to enter all those genetics into METRC and after your allotted window is closed you can then only bring in new genetics from other licensed facilities.

Now I'm more convinced than ever - "legalization" has been to bring back the payoffs to politicians from huge growers - payoffs that have been sparse from 1996 through 2017 due to medical growers dominating the industry.

Now the politicians and cops can get paid again.

Thank you very little, Jerry Brown.
