Home cannabis cultivation is illegal in Cobb County under Georgia state law (O.C.G.A. §16-13-30). Any plant cultivation is a felony. Georgia's medical 'low-THC oil' program (Haleon Act) does NOT permit home growing.
Cannabis cultivation of any amount is a felony under O.C.G.A. §16-13-30 — manufacturing a Schedule I controlled substance. There is no home-grow exemption, even for patients enrolled in Georgia's Low-THC Oil Registry (Haleigh's Hope Act / Georgia's Hope Act). The Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission licenses a limited number of private producers who may dispense up to 5% THC oil to registered patients with qualifying conditions; patients receive oil at licensed dispensaries, not home grows. Cobb County Police and the Cobb-Cherokee MCS (Multi-Agency Narcotics Squad) actively enforce. CBD products from hemp (0.3% THC or less) are legal under the 2018 Farm Bill and Georgia's Hemp Farming Act, but personal hemp cultivation still requires a Georgia Department of Agriculture license.
Any quantity of live plants: felony O.C.G.A. §16-13-30 — 1 to 10 years imprisonment + fines to $5,000; trafficking thresholds escalate penalties substantially. Civil asset forfeiture possible.
