    Legal limits are stupid. Some of those plants get huge.

    This is so ridiculous and uncalled for FLORIDA doesnโ€™t know what theyโ€™re talking about. They always do what they want itโ€™s unjust.

    If you get a CA medcard you can get medical grade shipped to you, $39 a year no limit



  5. Big Will on September 2, 2023 at 12:47 am

    The weed in Florida Dispensaries is garbage anyways! They’re selling low THC weed that doesn’t get you high and the prices! No thank you I’ll stick with my street pharmacist in Sanford!!



  6. Donald Cowling on September 2, 2023 at 12:49 am

    Legalize marijuana and use it for the vets and for a medical and for the roads and the bridges



  7. Flores Chris on September 2, 2023 at 12:55 am

    evil, I can drink myself to death, but can’t detox with natural cannabis.



  8. Anything Plants on September 2, 2023 at 12:55 am

    Thatโ€™s a step in the wrong direction! Legalize it already!



  9. Richard Matthew Jr on September 2, 2023 at 12:56 am

    Haha! I get 4ozs every 35 days in Fla! Sucks for u guys that are getting screwed.



  10. Joe Doherty on September 2, 2023 at 12:56 am

    My medical card in Washington allowed 24 dried cured oz on person at any given time. I literally felt like that was perfect.



  11. HappyDayRoots on September 2, 2023 at 12:56 am

    i was getting that already lol 2.5 oz a mth



  12. steven Johnson on September 2, 2023 at 12:57 am

    their ainโ€™t state in America can grow more marijuana than Californiaโ€ฆ..California is known as the marijuana state the first state to legalized medicinal marijuana back in 1996 ๐Ÿ˜ƒ



  13. mobilesolutionsfl on September 2, 2023 at 12:57 am

    I could barely buy a 1/4 Oz of concentrated over a 3 month period. I bought 6 grams of concentrates in December and can not buy anymore until February. That maxed me out in a week. I will go to the black market.



  14. David Gilbert on September 2, 2023 at 12:58 am

    Who the hell was packing that bowl like that? You know damn well they have never smoked



  15. Tommy Bombadil on September 2, 2023 at 1:00 am

    And they wonder why the black market exists.



  16. William Shaw on September 2, 2023 at 1:03 am

    So sick of corrupt republicans ruining what Floridians vote for.

    If you vote for Republicans youโ€™re a fascist, Republicans continuing to push their standards on the rest of Floridaโ€™s citizens is why they get called fascist every time.

    Clearly Republicans donโ€™t care about democracy.

    Will just go back to buying it on the black market and youโ€™ll get zero tax dollars from it. Florida government is full of morons.



  17. Matt H on September 2, 2023 at 1:03 am

    I have my MMC in FL and you can thank the doctors and โ€œpatientsโ€ who were LITERALLY giving unlimited amounts of concentrates to people who clearly have no legit need and the patients buying huge amounts (500,000 mg+a day) and then selling it on the street(yes they were that dumb to tell the people in the dispo they were selling all their concentrateโ€™s). The Governor has already signed for legalization so why people canโ€™t just wait for legalization. They unfortunately ruined it for many legit mm patients.



  18. Richard Matthew Jr on September 2, 2023 at 1:05 am

    Untrue now. Ask ur Dr for 4oz. If they are legit, they can do it for u. I can hold 6.4oz and its 12/2/2022



  19. Dawn Gifford on September 2, 2023 at 1:05 am

    Can’t wait till it’s fully legal



  20. Promytheuz on September 2, 2023 at 1:06 am

    Of course FL fucks up medical marijuana even though the people voted for it. So much freedom going on in FL.



  21. steven Johnson on September 2, 2023 at 1:06 am

    the state of Florida can never out grow marijuana like California or have better marijuana than Californiaโ€ฆ..here in California not only we grow the best marijuana plant in america and we have the best marijuana in all of America and thatโ€™s a 100% fact ๐Ÿ˜ƒ



  22. Anything Plants on September 2, 2023 at 1:06 am

    I have been smoking since long before it was legal. I got it then, I can get it now. You arenโ€™t stopping anyone!



  23. Tanya Queen on September 2, 2023 at 1:07 am

    For those of us with legitimate chronic pain and illness, where only medical marijuana helps without side effects, this is not a joke. This is just more BS ways for the government to throw it’s **** around. All they did was lose millions in the tax revenue the cut products would have brought in.
    I only use topicals and edibles, but some people, especially those with AIDS and Cancer, smokable Marijuana is the ONLY thing that helps relieve the horrible side effects caused by medications and radiation. So the people that suffer are those with debilitating, painful, diseases. The people that benefit are the drug dealers. GREAT JOB FLORIDA.



  24. abc101244 on September 2, 2023 at 1:08 am

    I love the weather in florida but you guys are still living in the 70’s when it comes to weed. Weed is legal everywhere florida is really late.



  25. Mace37 on September 2, 2023 at 1:09 am

    Are they smoke 5 gram blunts??? That’s still alot, about half ounce lasts me for 2 weeks



  26. David Pinto on September 2, 2023 at 1:11 am

    We are suffering from this



  27. Richard Matthew Jr on September 2, 2023 at 1:12 am

    Untrue now. Ask ur Dr for 4oz. If they are legit, they can do it for u. I can hold 6.4oz and its 12/2/2022



  28. Scorch1028 on September 2, 2023 at 1:12 am

    "New limits" on medical marijuana in Florida, are a joke. Where I live, the smell of weed is "everywhere". Anyone in Florida who wants more weed than the law allows, will get it.



  29. Michael on September 2, 2023 at 1:14 am

    Marijuana is medicine ? It causes brain damage , lung cancer , heart attacks , strokes and mental illness . What a freaking Joke . More people die now in car wrecks since itโ€™s legalization. Ban this crap



  30. Charles S on September 2, 2023 at 1:14 am

    "No your placing the whole station in jeopardy, Ron.."



  31. HappyDayRoots on September 2, 2023 at 1:14 am

    we already pay a huge amount… This will end up with medical marijuana people going back to the streets



  32. eyeblab on September 2, 2023 at 1:16 am

    Again GOP politicians telling doctors they know better.



  33. MeaneyMouse on September 2, 2023 at 1:18 am

    Ok, so what? I can live with that. I’m just happy to make legal purchases. Go home and smoke in peace. Had my Florida MMU ID card going on 2years now. Rolling up another winner. ๐Ÿคช



  34. David Pinto on September 2, 2023 at 1:20 am

    Fuck these limits



  35. Donald Cowling on September 2, 2023 at 1:20 am

    Who is that hurting the most the veterans and the retirees



  36. John Lewis on September 2, 2023 at 1:21 am

    It definitely has boosted the black market and therefore worsening crime.



  37. Shane Connors on September 2, 2023 at 1:24 am

    Keep sucking down that Budweiser though ๐Ÿ˜’



  38. PrivatePilot5494 on September 2, 2023 at 1:24 am

    I don’t need United States Government permission to smoke weed.

    Fuck those dirty rotten pricks.



  39. hothmandon on September 2, 2023 at 1:24 am

    On the street I only get a a half oz for $100 so I say 2 ozs every 30 days is pretty good. I can make a cupple of prerolls, take a few grams to make cooking hash and keep the rest for my bong.



  40. G . S on September 2, 2023 at 1:25 am

    Man even with 4 Oz it’s not enough i get Calli bud from my connect when I run out it’s sad man they keep fucking with us here in Florida hate this fucking place I’m in Miami sick of it to many people to much traffic



  41. ClearlyEnchanted on September 2, 2023 at 1:27 am

    I think they want people to go back to the streets so they can get more arrest. Itโ€™s so ridiculous. Just make it legal!



  42. Homer Simpson on September 2, 2023 at 1:27 am

    Lol 2.5 ounces a month is still a shit load of weed lol honestly only chief kief and snoop dog smoke more than that.



  43. BR549 on September 2, 2023 at 1:27 am

    And how many pain pills can I get . Stupid ass lawmakers.



  44. Ai Parody Clips on September 2, 2023 at 1:31 am

    In NJ we have been limited to 3oz/month for last 2 years. Not looking like it will be changed.



  45. SmashAdams on September 2, 2023 at 1:32 am

    Looks like they are going back to the plug Iโ€™m in Orlando by the way ๐Ÿ˜‚



  46. Digital Man on September 2, 2023 at 1:33 am

    Nikki Fried was supposed to be the industry hero. Instead we get crickets from her.
