Reply to comment by ginmang in CHEAPEST WAY TO GET A MEDICAL MARIJUANA CARD IN PA by NOLAnuts

Apparently questioning the OP knowledge of the law or what a PA MMC actually allows as opposed to what they think it allows is frowned upon šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

In the state of Pennsylvania, according to Act 16 if 2016 a the Medical Marijuana Act, the term ā€œmedical marijuanaā€ refers to marijuana obtained for certified medical use by a Pennsylvania resident with a SERIOUS medical condition and is limited by statute in Pennsylvania to use in the following forms: Pill, Oil, Topical forms including, gels, creams and ointments, Tincture, Liquid, A form medically appropriate for administration by vaporization or nebulization, excluding dry leaf or plant form

A good summary by someone who just looked up the law and has no experience with it in practice or how the regs have been updated. It's very easy to get a card, "serious" is not an objective standard and the doctors that specialize in medical cannabis trust your representation that cannabis will help your qualifying condition. It's difficult to not get a recommendation if you want one. The regs have also been updated to allow dry leaf or plant form, look at the menu of your local dispensary. PA medical marijuana is rec with a pay wall.

You were arguing to a judge that cannabis flower isn't available at dispensaries? Or that it shouldn't be? Pretty lame practice if you're taking clients claiming to be injured by the availability of cannabis in its natural form.

Updates have been made. If dry flower was illegal for medical use it wouldnā€™t be allowed in dispensaries - similar to why they donā€™t have edibles in candy form.
