In Shasta Lake, California, according to a recent press release, there will be a 2-day event featuring how to grow marijuana legally.
The goal is to demonstrate that this can be a good business for farmers and cultivators. The college takes place July 16 and 17 at Red Lion Inn in the high mountains of Lake Shasta.
College Business Director, George Boyardiian of 402 College says, "It's not hard or as expensive to comply with the law as people think. We focus on simple steps that a medical marijuana collective, delivery service or member farm need to take to get up and running, legally. We cover best practices for cultivation and testing, as well. Two days and the cost of the seminar are a lot less then the price we've seen others pay for ignoring cultivation guidelines, or by following someone's advice that's mis-informed about the law."
The press release goes on to say that featured speakers at the college will include people from the medical marijuana industry who have years of practical experience to share about how to start and run a marijuana business right down to the details of growing and delivering the goods. Folks can register online at this address.
There is a growing underground industry in marijuana, but there are federal laws against it. Still California, like other states where medical marijuana is legal, has its own set of regulations. Those codes can be found here under “compassionate use” legislation.
There is even a YouTube video that gives folks information on the laws referencing growing and cultivating marijuana in California, that will give potential students at the 402 college some introductory information in advance. It appears there is sufficient business potential with the growing number of states that have legalized marijuana for medicinal purposes for training in how to be successful in the drug business.
