What happens if an Adult grows Marijuana plants in a City or County that has BANNED Marijuana Growing?

If an Adult grows 6 Marijuana plants in a City or County that has BANNED Marijuana Growing, they will be charged with at LEAST a CLASS 4 FELONY for “Illegal Cultivation of Marijuana”, which likely includes a MANDATORY PRISON SENTENCE, in addition to receiving a FINE for violating a City or County Ordinance.

Prop. 205 allows adults to grow 6 Marijuana plants, but ONLY if it is done; “In compliance with Prop. 205 and any Rules and Regulations enacted pursuant to Prop. 205.”

In other words, Prop. 205 only allows adults to grow 6 Marijuana plants as long as they follow the Marijuana law and any of the other Marijuana regulations. If an adult breaks the law while growing Marijuana, it reverts back to the old FELONY Penalties for growing Marijuana.

Prop. 205 specifically allows Cities and Counties to pass Ordinances (Rules and Regulations) to BAN Marijuana Growing in their City or County.

Therefore, if an Adult were to grow 6 Marijuana Plants in a City or County that has BANNED growing, they would no longer be growing the plants “In compliance with Prop. 205 or any Rules and Regulations enacted pursuant to Prop. 205.” (Because a City or County Ordinance that BANS Marijuana Growing is a “Rule or Regulation enacted pursuant to Prop. 205.”)

So if an Adult grows 6 Marijuana plants in a City or County that has BANNED Marijuana Growing, they will be charged with at LEAST a CLASS 4 FELONY for “Illegal Cultivation of Marijuana” in addition to receiving a FINE for violating a City or County Ordinance.
