Also, question for posters in states where MMJ patients are currently allowed to grow their own medicine:

1. The limit on plants in finite, but is their a limit on size or light wattage?
2. the limit on weight allowed in the home, this only applies to cut and dried cannabis, and not what is still growing on a live plant?

I imagine 6 different mothers/fathers and 6 flowering plants, for a total of 12 (as specified in the Illinois bill last I checked) would be enough to cross-breed at least the top few strains I've had my eye on, for unique and useful attributes regarding specific cannabinoid ratios. Especially Delta-8-THC.(you heard right, delta-eight)

Last week, I let you know that the full Senate was expected to vote on medical marijuana legislation by April 30. Since then, sponsor Bill Haine (D-Alton) made several amendments to SB 1381 to further address the concerns of opponents and secured an extension that allows SB 1381 to be voted on until May 31. The bill passed the Senate Public Health Committee for the second time with a 6-2 vote and is now poised for a full vote on the Senate floor.

While the Senate has until May 31 to act, the vote is expected this week. Please call your senator in support of SB 1381. If you have already called, please use our automated system to send a free fax. If you have anything personal to say about this issue — e.g. you or a loved one could benefit from medical marijuana to alleviate a serious illness — please customize your message as this will have more of an impact with your elected official. Please be sure to share with us any feedback you get from your senator's office by sending an e-mail to [email protected].

If you have already contacted your senator in support of SB 1381 and received a satisfactory response, then the best way you can help is to forward this alert to others in Illinois and ask them to write and call their lawmakers in support of this legislation.

Thank you for supporting the Marijuana Policy Project.
