Medical Marijuana
The state of Washington needs our help. Washington state has legalized marijuana use for medical purposes.
A person can have a 60-day supply of medical marijuana. The problem is that experts can’t agree on how much marijuana represents a 60-day supply. Here is the link: Link
I knew that some of my friends on xanga were experts in marijuana use.
How much marijuana is a 60-day supply?
Comments (64)
A few pounds for me… although i’ve quit doing the herb a while back.
No idea.
lol God if i know.
I’ve got an infinite-day supply for myself.
Wouldn’t that depend on how much an individual uses? ‘Til The Next
Only $10 …. (co-pay)
A nice fat blunt is a couple ounces…Probably 3 or 4 a day…add it up.
Can’t answer the Marijuana question but RYC: think…”no privacy.”
Might not be bad for security though.
They are everywhere.
Don’t look at me. I was the weenie that had to live at home with my parents during college…
At least 120 joints.
HA! Yeah right… I am no help here. lol
60 x 0 = 0.. but that’s because I don’t smoke. If it is legalized for medical purposes, then I would assume the patient would have that dictated by a doctor.
I am utterly clueless on this one… sorry, Dan.
I can’t help ypou. I’ve been drug free since I was 17 and I am 41 now!
I’d say an ounce a month… so two ounces? Depends on how “sick” they are too.. If they need it to regain an appetite maybe they are sickly and havent one, they may need more..? I’m just mental.. so an ounce a month is good for me..
RYC:
You have to admit.. I do make some pretty nice baguettes and sheepherders.. *wink*
I’d say a few pounds easy.
boy I bet you can find the answer on ur site
For an average joe like you Dan, I’d say 16 oz is plenty. For Snoop Dog, it would be about a pound and a half.
*shrugs*
that’s a lot. i would die. haha
That would depend on how many joints a day were needed.
It depends
…some people go through an 8th (that’s 1/8 an ounce) a day, and for some people that can last two weeks. I’d say about 8 ounces…?
most blazer’s i know go through about a 20 sack a day, so i’d have to say 7 and a half pounds.
Can one state legalize an illegal drug? I didn’t realize that.
I think that depends on how much weed equals a blunt.
woohoo. legal marijuana.
The amount needed to do the job.
Of course, I don’t think there should be laws prohibiting drugs at all- like Amsterdam- so I’m not the one to ask.
I wouldn’t know, but if it’s for medical use I would think it would require a doctor’s prescription, so it would be at the doctor’s discretion.
hmmm?? idk? how bout beer? I can help you there!
Five Pounds
Idk, 2 oz a day should do it…so 120 oz? Idk how many baggies that is. Or how many blunts that is. But I would love to be there to find out… haha.
=D
few pounds will do. depending on how often the dose.
Haha just joking not that much.
No idea, I don’t use it, and have no interest in doing so. ; )
I have no idea Dan!
SWEET.
IDK.
Addiction is the basis of the answer. A person can use a tiny amount for a year and then have a massive need.
I won’t. I promise.
I can’t believe people are talking pounds.
Depends… it’s usually a social activity, and you have to have enough to go around…
Then again, I left that environment some time ago.
“In the US federal medical marijuana program, a 60 day supply equals 8 to 12 ounces. In Oakland, Sonoma County, and other California communities, a 60 day supply once again equals 8 ounces – in fact, the current recommendation of the California State Medical Marijuana Taskforce, including both Attorney General Lockyer and Senator Vasconcellos, calls for an 8 ounce (dry, processed) limit for patients in that state. Similarly, in the 1996 medical necessity defense of Martin Martinez, a recommending physician testified that the use of 3.5 grams per day (about 8 ounces over a 60 day period) was reasonable in his professional medical opinion. Also, in a voluntary survey of over 200 legally qualified long-term medical marijuana patients in Western Washington conducted from 2001 through 2003, respondents reported an average usage of 15 grams per week, with the highest reported amounts at about twice that amount – one ounce per week, or about 8 ounces per 60 days.” http://cannabismd.org/foundation/useandcultivationlimits.php
Well since everyone is clueless…I’d say about a 1/2 ounce, ounce at the most.
I used to be a drug addict, but Jesus totally changed me life!!! A huge part is how good the bud is. I would say though around 1.2LB (that would be the conservative medical side). Now for pot heads i would say at least 3lbs. Thank God I don’t smoke weed anymore!
Godbless ya’ll and i hope you get to know God like ive come to know! 
never enough. LoL
What amount tends to be effective for having the desired effects?
With most drugs you can regulate dosage according to what the person’s needs are. It seems like you should be able to do so with this, as well.
i’de say a few pounds is wayyyyy over what someone should smoke in 60 days. Probably about a pound would do you in. Depends on how high you want to be and for how long.
none.
marijuana shouldn’t be used at all.
I have no clue, but, I could ask my younger brother….He would most definitely know…
a gram a day maybe, a little more
I’d say 100 grams is a worthy amount of pot to have for that period. I go through 1 or 2 a day…my friends who smoke non stop would probably need about 400
ounce per every four weeks is a bare minimum i’d say
Not enough-
It depends on the individual.
What about cocaine for medical uses ??
ummm… lets think… if you actually gave it to people in a bag and let them pack their own bowl or roll their own j’s, you could probably give them considerably less, but that does bring up the problem of it being easier to sell and deal. But probably expect something like a quarter a week, really depending on how good it is…
The people here who are saying that it would take “pounds” of marijuana to last for 60 days obviously don’t know what they are talking about. The following link is of a picture of exactly one pound of marijuana, 3 grams of Meth, and $2,000 in cash recieved in a drug bust. http://www.sunsetk9.com/images/MexiaWeb.jpg Now with that said, take into consideration how one rolls the marijuana into a hand rolled cigarette and smoked. When one makes a joint one doesn’t have to make it as fat as a regular tobacco cigarette. And when one smokes the marijuna one doesn’t have to smoke the entire joint in one setting to feel the full effects. Depending on the type of marijuana 3-4 hits off of a joint of sufficient. So one pound of some really good marijuana will last a person a hell of a lot longer than 60 days. I think some people need to get their heads out of their asses and stop trying to act like they are cool.
The state of Oregon has it that you should be able to grow your own supply…enough for your caregiver, also. That means more than a pound at a time. Get into it. This is the first time I have heard the news about the state of Washington OK-ing the use, medicinally. I wonder if it ever get to the point when we can pass a joint with NO GUILT. My church would say to their members, “Let’s get rid of these deadbeats who OBVIOUSLY smoke POT.” I am all for the smoking of it. Next, we Washingtonians should legalize just POT, in thestate of Washington, as far as what is considered illegal drug usage right now.
an ounce
I don’t have a clue.
As much as you can smoke.
A lot.
it all depends on the person ;]
….BBBBback in the days of yore, a lb or so, currency is QP, give or take…..
Peace
i’d say about a dime a day (which is a gram in WA) which is about two eighths a week coming out to about two ounces for two months. that was how much i would have liked to smoke back in the day, it would have been perfect for me, i did about that much too. but it really depends on the person. a dub can last a guy a week and a person can be smoking like an eighth a day. of course this is all implying that you’re smoking it by yourself (which an eighth does sound like a loot).
Its good for Washington marijuana users. They get marijuana easily without any risk.
