Home cultivation is prohibited under Mississippi's Medical Cannabis Act (Miss. Code §§41-137-1 et seq.). Patient home grow is NOT allowed - only licensed cultivators may grow cannabis. Recreational growing remains a felony.
The Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act (Miss. Code §§41-137-1 et seq., enacted 2022 after Initiative 65's judicial invalidation) legalized medical cannabis but - unlike Colorado, California, or Missouri - does NOT authorize patient home cultivation. All cannabis sold in Mississippi must come from cultivators licensed by the Mississippi Department of Health (MDOH), with seed-to-sale METRC tracking. Rankin County has no local home-grow allowance, and Dillon's Rule prevents any city from expanding cannabis access beyond state law. Recreational cannabis possession over 30 grams remains a felony under Miss. Code §41-29-139. Growing even a single plant at home - with or without a medical card - is a felony under Mississippi's controlled substances schedule. Several Rankin cities (including Brandon and Richland) exercised the statutory opt-out during the 2022 window.
Unlicensed cultivation of any amount: felony under Miss. Code §41-29-139, potentially up to 30 years depending on plant count and weight. Medical patient growing even one plant: still a felony - no patient-grow exemption exists in Mississippi law.
