Maryland Recreational Cannabis Act (2023) permits adults 21+ to grow up to 2 cannabis plants per household. Plants must be in locked, secure area not visible from public. Anne Arundel follows state law.
Maryland legalized recreational cannabis in 2023 (Cannabis Reform Act, HB 556). Adults 21 or older may cultivate up to 2 cannabis plants per household (not per person) for personal use. Plants must be in a locked, secure area not visible to the public from outside the residence. Landlords may prohibit cultivation in rental units via lease. Anne Arundel County has not adopted additional home cultivation restrictions beyond state law. Odor control recommended to avoid nuisance complaints. Growing for sale requires a state Maryland Cannabis Administration license. Sharing under 1.5 oz with adults is legal; selling without license is a crime.
Exceeding 2 plants: civil $250 first offense. Visible grow: citation and abatement. Unlicensed sale: criminal charges.
