US NM: Too Many Patients, Not Enough Pot

Honolulu Star-Advertiser, 17 Jul 2010 – Medical Marijuana Growers Fault New Mexico For A Big Shortage ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) =AD Len Goodman can’t grow enough marijuana to keep up with demand. He is one of just 11 growers approved by New Mexico to produce pot for all of the state’s 2,000 registered medical marijuana patients, and his customers routinely wipe out his supply. Once a strain of marijuana is harvested, dried and cured, he sends an announcement that patients can place orders, and the pot is usually gone in 24 hours.
