The large superstore that supplies everything that Arizona medical marijuana cards holders need to grow weed, weGrow, has opened a store in Phoenix, Arizona for patients.
A new superstore has opened its doors in Phoenix, Arizona to aid patients who have been approved for Arizona medical marijuana cards so they can purchase the tools that they will require in order to grow their own medicine.
The state approved the legalization of medicinal cannabis at the end of 2010, and the law took effect in mid-April, 2011. Since that time, the public health department – which manages and regulates the Arizona medical marijuana program – has been issuing Arizona medical marijuana cards to patients who have been recommended to use cannabis by a doctor.
Dhar Mann, the Founder of weGrow, says that his store is in business to provide valid Arizona medical marijuana cards holders with the tools that they will need in order to responsibly cultivate their own medicinal cannabis.
“We sell everything but the plant itself,” he told Reuters. “We sell the products and the services for people to safely and responsibly cultivate their medicine.”
Similar to other big box stores in size and amenities – like Best Buy or Target – the 21,000 sq ft facility will be selling all sorts of hydroponic grow aids, food, soil, trays, lamps and just about anything related to cultivating cannabis. In the press materials, the store has actually compared itself to other well known big box stores, often calling itself “The Wal-Mart of Weed” or “Home DePot.”
Since the store only sells grow aids and tools, you don’t need to have an Arizona medical marijuana card to gain entrance. But the only way that you can legally grow marijuana in AZ for personal usage is by first being approved and issued an Arizona medical marijuana card.
In early June, the state headed to federal court to ensure that its employees and citizens were protected from federal prosecution for issuing Arizona medical marijuana cards and using medicinal cannabis.
Marijuana is still federally prohibited and is listed as a Schedule 1 Drug.
Arizona is the 16th state in the union to decriminalize medicinal cannabis.
Currently there are more than 3,700 patients who have been approved and issued Arizona medical marijuana cards.
well done !!
