Minnesota legalized recreational cannabis in 2023. Adults 21 and older may cultivate up to 8 plants at home, with no more than 4 being mature flowering plants. Plants must be in an enclosed, locked space not visible from a public place and not accessible to persons under 21. Saint Paul follows state law on home cultivation.
Saint Paul allows adults 21 and over to grow a limited number of cannabis plants at home under state law. Typically 6 plants per household or fewer depending on local rules. Plants must be in a locked, enclosed area not visible from public spaces. Odor control may be required. Landlords may prohibit growing in rental properties. Local jurisdictions may impose stricter limits than state law. Growing for sale requires a commercial license.
Exceeding plant limits: warning, then fines $100 to $500. Visible grows: citation. Growing for unlicensed sale: criminal charges.
