According To Prob.215, which regulates issues related to medical marijuana, a participant in the MMJ California program can grow and consume as much cannabis as they need, based on medical necessity. However, if this freedom is abused, the SB 420 standards may be applied to a person who grows more than 6 mature and 12 vegetative plants at the same time. Also, according to this law, it is allowed to store up to 8 ounces of dried cannabis per 1 person. At the same time, legal practice suggests that if a patient exceeds the permissible limit, but their doctor will examine the need for such intensive use of cannabis in therapy, the accused is likely to be acquitted.
