    Seems Texas doesn't have anything for plants in particular. Some states do, and they would classify growing as intent to distribute or trafficking, which typically carries a hefty penalty. Even selling 7grams- 5lbs in TX only gets you up to 2 years. In some neighboring states, it is much worse.

    If he lived right next door in Louisiana, your friend would be going away for 5-30 years!

    Unfortunately it is still illegal in Texas. You can't take the law to critical they rarely hand out maximum penalty's. They usually work out plea bargins. With that being said the weight of the smokable material would be less than 4 oz. He stated to the law official during the time of the bust that he uses marijuana for medical purpose only and he would be violating his constitutional rights to his medicine. He has hired a lawyer one of the best money can buy in this small town. Thanks for all the help from everyone even the early birds.
