You dont have any legal right to grow cannabis in the uk.

Its an illegal drug here i.e if you get caught growing it you can go to prison for a maximum of 14 years.

There is only one member of the public that has home office approval and a license to grow cannabis in the uk.

Londoners spot on, stupid government

Quote:
Until the reclassification is approved, cannabis remains a Class C drug. Penalties are listed below.
Penalties for supply, dealing, production and trafficking

The maximum penalty is 14 years imprisonment. This has increased from five years for all class C substances including GHB and Valium. (The maximum penalty of 14 years' imprisonment is the same for Class B drugs.)

Yea i mean thats worse case scenario, for production(intent to supply) trafficking and dealing etc.

For simple cultivation of a small amount for personal use(and they find no scales, baggies or big wads of cash, otherwise its a production charge) Youl probably escape with a hefty fine and/or a community sentance.

Rarely do ppl go to prison for simple cultivation charges unless you get an arsehole of a judge in court.

I know a guy whose girlfriend stitched him up proper. Took his kids away and grassed him up for the 8 plants he had. He took off somewhere, and i haven't seen him since, but a mutual pal told me he was fined £100 a plant. Apparently the plants weren't very big. I've tried to get a picture of what can be expected should you end up in court for cultivation, but it seems pretty tough to get statistics. Just found this place..Regional differences in Sentencing Practices UK (1997) It's got some pretty useful info.

if you grow under four plants it is classified as personal use
and the plants will be destoyed and, you will get a fine! Anything
over four and you'll be charged for production and intent to supply
and prrobly get a little bit of jail time and a BIG fine.

Yea thats about right, but, if you have over four plants BUT they find no evidence of dealing i.e baggies, scales, unexplainable amounts of cash or tick lists, or info from the public/neighbours or intelligence from surveilance of you and your property, which they would do first if they suspect youre selling etc etc, they would have an extremely hard time proving you were dealing and you would more than likely get a simple cultivation charge as opposed to production and custodial sentance, i dont mean like 100+ plants, you couldnt say thats percy, i mean like up to 30 can easily be percy, especially if theyre small clones or such.

There was a case with a member of another site i use who was caught with 30 quite large plants, 4 weeks from the chop, set to yield 3-4oz each plant, and they got £1000 fine + court costs and ordered to do 150 hours unpaid community service.

If Gordon was about to make perfect sense, he'd be thinking beyond his legacy. Maybe he has some touch with the ordinary folk who need their medicine.Be radical Gordyboy...(somewhat) free the weed. Their ill dude. Let them do whatever helps them.You could bury so much by just by letting folks be..?

a friend of a friend was caught with 20 plants in different stages of growth. he is now doing 18 months behind bars.

in a policeman/womans eyes cannabis is a class B drug, and now with the crazy idea too start catching seed sellers and hydro shops for selling goods used for growing is going too make it alot harder for us users in the UK and the billion pound market in seed sales from uk.

be aware of the rubbish about in uk too, very tainted resin and alotta soapbar around been 4 large busts in my region in last two weeks. also some wierd looking bud. i turned some down because it looked too old too be fresh and was as damp as if it was just cut. no smell too it and no sticky feeling too buds with a gritty feel too bud also.

to what i know of there is no set limit on plants you have, its either cultivation or cultivation with intent too supply.

only one company was given a licence too cultivate and seed plants for medical testing, no others have been allowed except for hemp licences allowing the growing of hemp for factory/clothing uses. shall have too ask my brief on more info
