Why UNLIMITED amount of MJ “could” be grown in CA…

The first thing I did was call the Municipal Code Corporation within the link you posted at 1-800-262-2633. The lady I spoke with told me that they are only responsible for publishing the info and is not responsible for interpreting the info. She told then led me to a host of other contacts/sources that confirmed much for me. I’ll summarize what I have learned for all.

From what I have learned, California has been legalized to grow unlimited amounts of marijuana. This was granted to be as such from a California Supreme Court decision:

California Legalizes Unlimited Marijuana

However, that unlimited amount must be justified per county. For the Mendocino County, no more than 25 plants can be grown per 1 parcel. My questions then were… How is California making so much money with only being authorized to grow such few of an amount? Why are there companies that have acres of marijuana growing that far exceeds 25 plants? I’ll explain the justification from doing my DD based on the answers that I have received from a variety of California sources.

First let’s define a parcel. According to the Mendocino County, California - Code of Ordinances under Sec. 9.31.030 … "Parcel" means a parcel as determined by the Assessor for assessment purposes only:

To add, a parcel of land is referred to a piece of land that represents a legal boundary or section. In this case, a legal boundary represents marijuana to be grown for a "qualified patient", "primary caregiver", "collective", etc. Before you ask, yes I have actually called Mendocino County to confirm what I am posting. Under Sec. 9.31.050, it states that a separate parcel must be within 50 feet from one another.


Very important to understand is that you can have many parcels as a company and not just 1 parcel as long as you can justify having them and they are at least 50 feet from one another. With Emerald Med Farms being part of the California Collective and Cooperative Corporation to be able to plant marijuana in the first place, this gives them a variety of Collectives, Cooperatives, Dispensaries, Patients, etc. to attach to each parcel for justification of having many parcels. This is why you have some companies with many acres in California that had been growing many parcels of marijuana for years legally. I was also told that each county will have their own rules and guidelines. What I posted above applies to Mendocino County, CA.

About having a License, I just got off the phone with Harborside Health Center at 888-994-2726. They too are a non-profit organization as the guy told me that it is mandatory within the state of California for them as a marijuana company. From what I have researched, they generate over $20 Million per year. He also told me that there is absolutely no Company License that exists for marijuana for the state of California. The guy told me that each person that is within a Cooperative or Collective must have a license, but there is no license requirement for a company. So, again, referring to whether or not QEDN (Emerald Med Farms) need a license to grow marijuana in California… the answer is no they do not need a marijuana license. I would read this post again as I believe the thoughts within elaborates a little extra on the issue:
