Hi, I google this and the first result comes up as 24 plants.
I looked a local county website and it said 8 immature plants and 6 mature plants.
Thats pretty vague, what is a ‘mature’ plant? One that is flowering I suppose. But what if I have a 6 foot tall sativa still vegging, is that a ‘mature’ plant?
I only have 4 plants but I want to cut clones and do a sog style grow with small pots in a closet.
So, the law says I should grow 6 monster plants and thats fine, but if I do 18 or 24 small trees thats not ok?
Under AUMA it is LEGAL for any adult 21 or over to:
(1) Possess, process, transport, purchase, obtain, or give away to persons 21 or older, not more than one ounce of cannabis or 8 grams of concentrated cannabis [HSC 11362.1(a)(1) and (2)].
(2) Cultivate, possess, plant, harvest, dry or process not more than six live plants and possess the produce of the plants [HSC 11362.1(a)(3)
PROVIDED:
(a) Any cannabis in excess of one ounce is stored in the person’s private residential property, in a locked space, and not visible from a public place. HSC 11362.2
(b) No more than six plants are planted at any one residence at one time.
(c) Local governments may impose reasonable restrictions on cultivation, but may not forbid cultivation indoors in a residence or accessory structure that is fullly enclosed and secure. Locals are free to prohibit outdoor cultivation altogether until such time as adult use is made legal under federal law. (HSC 11362.2(b)).
Violation of restrictions on personal use cultivation is a $250 infraction for six plants or less [HSC 11362.4(e)].
I have 11 going in my backyard, not counting my autos. Quite frankly, I couldn’t give a shit less about the limit. I don’t sell my product and I could grow more when it was a medical only state. I actually have a few buddies that are local cops. One detective the other 2 are patrol. All 3 of them told me that no one cares anymore about weed and they are actually relieved as they have bigger fish to fry. In all reality a small fry like me isn’t exactly gonna be important enough for the feds to bother with and the local cops don’t have time to mess with me. Unless my neighbors start complaining to high hell, I don’t expect anyone with a badge to come rushing my door.
I read the entire Cali law at one point. You can have 6 budding and 8 clones or plants in Veg. Not sure how they would expect me to have control over what’s budding outside so whatever. Indoor growers, I wouldn’t worry about shit. I do keep both of my backyard gates padlocked and my plants aren’t visible to anyone walking by. That’s good enough for me. Not sure why I would be required to lock up my harvest if it’s inside my house either. I don’t have any small children and why should anyone give a shit how much I smoke or keep on hand.
