Adults 21 and older may grow up to six marijuana plants per person, with no more than 12 total plants per residence under Colorado Amendment 64 and Aurora ordinance, regardless of household size.
Colorado Amendment 64 (2012) and CRS 18-18-406 permit adults 21 and older to cultivate up to six marijuana plants for personal use, with a maximum of three flowering at any time. Aurora caps cultivation at 12 total plants per residential property even with multiple adults living there, matching the Colorado statewide household cap enacted by HB17-1220. Plants must be grown in an enclosed, locked space not visible from public right-of-way. Outdoor cultivation visible to neighbors is prohibited. Tenants need landlord permission. Violations are enforced by Aurora Code Enforcement.
Exceeding plant limits triggers seizure of excess plants, municipal citations, and potential state felony charges if cultivation exceeds 30 plants. Visible outdoor grows trigger nuisance abatement.
