Plan proposed to allow some Florida residents to grow pot at home - Jacksonville Business Journal

Feb 22, 2023

A political committee has started moving forward with a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow medical-marijuana patients and patients’ caregivers to grow cannabis at home. The WISE & Free Florida committee is seeking to get the proposal on the 2024 ballot, according to newly posted information on the state Division of Elections website. To do so, it would need to submit 891,589 valid petition signatures.

A summary of the proposal said it would allow “caregivers and adult qualifying patients 21 years or older to cultivate marijuana for medical use” and that cultivation would be “limited to the cultivator’s home.” The proposal comes as a committee known as Smart & Safe Florida tries to get an amendment on the 2024 ballot to allow recreational use of marijuana. That committee had submitted 291,999 valid signatures as of early Friday afternoon.
