Horrible plan. Just open up the law for home grown stuff with some clear boundaries
Home-grown was already possible. What do you see as the problem with this plan?
Possible in practical terms, but not legal

Basically if you have 5 or less plants the cops will probably ignore you unless you're a dickhead or are annoying neighbors or something like that.
The reason they put this kind of limits is to protect the income (of coming?) companies. Nobody wants pesky people growing their own stuff, but spending taxable money. Even nicer "for everybody" if the initial money comes from lobbying companies paying for the law to be favorable to them.
yeah thats pretty much how illinois did it. the grow there is restricted to people buying a medical use license so they get the monies either way.
Nhaa you’re projecting… It’s been tolerated for a while now and the « companies » are absolutely not being protected so far. As far as I know they can’t legally source their merchandise…
