While some states have legalized personal growing of marijuana, Florida has not. It may seem like growing weed in Florida may not be that big of a deal, but it is still a serious charge.
Cultivating Marijuana is a felony and can carry a lengthy prison sentence. Florida law views cultivation as a 3rd-degree felony, which carries a maximum jail sentence of 5 years as well as a $5000 maximum fine. If you are found in actual or constructive possession of a grow house and found in possession of more than 25 cannabis plants, your charge can become a 2nd-degree felony, punishable by up to fifteen years in prison. However, if minors are residing where as the plants are being cultivated, the cultivation offense may be classed as a 1st-degree felony.
In addition, Cultivation of Cannabis is a charge that cannot be sealed or expunged. While possession of Cannabis and even sale of Cannabis can be sealed or expunged in many circumstances, cultivation cannot.
