Become a Patient Cultivator for DharmaRx.org

Do you produce medicinal cannabis for your own needs? Do you occasionally produce more than you need? Would you like to share your excess with other patients, and legally recover your costs of production? Or would you like to learn how to grow your own medicine, and perhaps a bit more to share with other members of your community.

What was once a deep, dark, grey area of the law has been thankfully clarified by AG Brown’s August 2008 Guidelines. Since the passage of Prop. 215 in 1996, and the subsequent legal battles that have allowed legitimate medicinal cannabis dispensaries to become part of the California landscape, little has been done until recently to address the source of the cannabis offered by the dispensaries. AG Brown's 2008 guidelines provide systems and procedures for individuals and collectives to legally produce medicinal cannabis for other members of their co-op or collective.

One of the prime functions of DharmaRx.org is to facilitate production of clean, high-quality cannabis medicine by members of our cooperative community, to be used by other members of our community. This is in accord with AG Brown’s “closed loop” guidelines and is seen by both AG Brown and the DharmaRx community as the best way to provide patients with their necessary medications. If you are currently producing high-quality medicinal cannabis and would like to become a member patient / cultivator, just call or e-mail and tell us about the meds you produce. To quote a wonderful quote originated by a SoCal dispensary: “We support small organic family farms”.

About Me

Berkeley, CA, United States
Hello and Welcome to dharma Patients Cooperative! My name is D. Gold and I am the moderator of this blog. Over the years, I've written a few books on the subject of scientific cannabis study, starting with Cannabis Alchemy in 1972.I have taught many others the techniques for cultivating their own medicine. For the last two years or so, I have taught the Sunday afternoon grow class at Harborside Health Center in Oakland. (Every Sunday 2:00 to 6:00 pm. Always free!). While we cover beginning and advanced horticultural techniques, many other subjects come up in our weekly discussions that relate to medicinal cannabis and the movement. We hope to reflect these types of discussions in this blog. So feel free to start discussion topics, ask horticultural questions, share tips and new developments with other members, suggest ways that our community could be better served, promote activism, etc. Give us your two-cents worth. All suggestions are appreciated. Thanks. Dave
