Growing marijuana at home is illegal everywhere in Shawnee County. Kansas has no medical or recreational cannabis program, and cultivating any amount is a felony under K.S.A. 21-5705. There is no home-grow allowance to permit.
Kansas has not legalized marijuana for medical or recreational use, so Shawnee County has no home-cultivation program and cannot authorize one. Cultivating marijuana is prohibited statewide under K.S.A. 21-5705, which makes it unlawful to cultivate any controlled substance and treats a marijuana grow as a drug-severity felony regardless of quantity. Plants found on residential property can be seized and the grower prosecuted. This is separate from the narrow low-THC/CBD products allowed under K.S.A. 65-6235, which are not marijuana and do not permit growing cannabis. There is no card, license, or plant count that makes a home grow legal in Kansas.
Cultivating marijuana in Kansas is a drug-severity-level felony under K.S.A. 21-5705, carrying prison time and fines that rise with the number of plants and any prior convictions. Plants and equipment are subject to seizure.
