#53I love it. I had this same idea but with a twist- the weed should come in a pillbox like so: http://www.triqplastics.co.uk/upload/U72374_67173.jpg One little container a day, every 4 weeks.
Try it out and let me know what you think! dane at marvina dot com
Sadly, I'm not in San Fran

#56how difficult is it to become a medial marijuana user in SF? it seems pretty tough in BC with the classic "stress/anxiety disorder".
It's not very hard. In California a doctor can give you a recommendation for any condition for which marijuana may be helpful. This includes things like stress, anxiety, insomnia... I've got with these guys, they have two offices in SF and an online appointment scheduler: http://green215.com
My favorite reason I've heard of for prescribing medical marijuana: writer's block. A police officer told me that, so I'm inclined to believe its true.

#57How did you not go with weed.ly ku.sh nugg.et ...or whatever the kids are calling the reefer these days.
With the Marvina brand we wanted to stay away from traditional marijuana stereotypes. We want to create something more inclusive than the vibe that most current marijuana businesses give off. Our two branding rules right now are: 1. No green 2. No puns
Like the name and branding a lot. Kudos to you guys for going with a forward-thinking approach.

Isn't medical marijuana lower in THC? It's not the THC that is the benefit it's the cannabidiol.
If so why are some people (not all) who are supposedly "sick" trying to get low THC pot?
Although these days with very strong pot low could mean 10% THC.

#60So it gets delivered. And it is cash-only. How does that work? COD? I assume someone must be there to accept the delivery anyway (as apposed to just leaving it at the door). So I guess you just pay the person delivering it?
Correct. You also have to be there because only the person with the doctor's recommendation can accept the delivery.
That makes sense. And until things improve on the legal front, it seems wise for customers to stay cash-only anyway. I know I do even though the dispensary I use takes credit cards.
And I understand the part about too many choices being overwhelming. My dispensary has 30-40 varieties and I often just stand there and stare at the board.
But, probably not a service I'd use. I have several convenient choices on my way home from work and being at home for a delivery is less convenient. But I can see it being very beneficial to people that might be home-bound and need their medicine. Best of luck.
