Cannabis Clubs, Uruguay

hey enthusiastic dog sitter, what exactly do you want them to do to me? And are you willing to have the same thing done to you?

Residency is not too hard to get, I have until April to sort that out...

The domestic market is not that great at an estimated $1.2 - $1.5 a gram, however the international medical market is a growing sector.

As I mentioned, I have ideas that are a little different, one is marijuana wine which (tried it in Switzerland) has some amazing qualities...

3.3 million residents allowed to buy, grow and sell marijuana gives, based on what Warren said gives an estimated yield of 594,000,000 grams, I wanna bit of that

marijuana wine doesnt sound too appealing to be honest with you but best of luck if you can make it work. I just hope all this actually helps the uruguayan economy.

One plant every 2 meters?????? You're not planting freaking 1000 year old redwoods.

I think the govt. wants to keep it a cottage industry which is understandable but there is nothing wrong with owning lots of cottages.

2 meters in a controlled environment could hold a lot of plants, indoor growth is the way ahead i believe, its faster and easier to cultivate

I'm sorry to be the one breaking the news to you,as you mentioned,you come from Europe,this is SouthAmerica.What makes you believe that the already organised smuggling and distribution rings will allow you to operate in Uruguay?
If you are serious about getting into this type of operation,be prepared to do many things you won't be proud of or tell your grandchildren about it,if you live that long

Pot is a lot safer than alcohol, it also has a lot more uses than getting high

It doesn't sound like you've done much research. It's easy to start the immigration process in Uruguay, but it's a long, bureaucratic process to even obtain temporary residency. Think years, with perpetually lost paperwork. Unless you are a citizen of a Mercosur country, you'd be better off in Colorado.

I'm under no illusions about it being an easy ride however, I am determined to get it and to try and to get a license, Uruguay does not have the worst administration in the world, I've probably dealt with worse,

I am probably a little in the dark and less informed as you guys are but I have heard that once the process is underway a temporary permit can be obtained, I guess only by trying will I know how it works out for me

Just FYI, below is some info that I got recently from an immigration attorney regarding the process. Also, there are a couple of Uruguay-specific forums and facebook groups PM me if you are interested.

From what I have read you have to be a permanent resident to get permission to grow/sell cannabis in Uruguay. Not sure if that is true or not.

---------------------------

The application is made in country and the approval takes some time (8-14 months – Temporary Residence Permit / 20-30 months for Permanent Resident), but the applicant can start to work and acquire all local documents while the application is still pending before the Uruguayan Immigration Authorities.
