It’s always fun to take a seed, plant it, and grow it into a fruit or a vegetable.
I’ve always loved plants and botany.
It was a hobby of mine when I was younger. My mom had a flower garden and I think that inspired me to have a garden of my own. When I grew up and started farming cannabis, my mom was disappointed. She didn’t think cannabis was a future and she was worried that I would end up in prison. I moved to a state where recreational cannabis and medical cannabis are both legal. I knew that would make my plan much easier. It’s never easy to start a business when you fear the cops everyday. Besides, I wanted a legitimate business that I could be proud to put in the Christmas card. I applied for a permit to grow multiple plants on my property. Each individual person can grow up to 12 plants in this state, but I wanted to start a much larger operation and that required permission from the state. I hired a special cannabis consultant that practices law. I didn’t know what kind of red tape problems I would face, but I knew a consultant and law expert would make things much easier. My mom knew a person that was willing to help and that made things easier. The cannabis consultant advised me on some of the hurdles that I would face, including bureaucratic red tape and problems with licensing. Those problems weren’t a shock, since I was already dealing with the county officers surveying my property once a week
