Full Breakdown
Texas Health and Safety Code §481.120 and §481.121 criminalize possession and manufacture of marijuana, with cultivation treated as manufacture. Only the three Compassionate Use Program dispensing organizations licensed by Texas DPS may grow low-THC cannabis, in secure facilities outside Frisco. There is no Texas equivalent of the six-plant home grow allowed in Colorado or California, and Frisco has no local exemption. Industrial hemp cultivation under Texas Agriculture Code Chapter 122 requires a state license and is limited to plants below 0.3 percent delta-9 THC, which excludes typical marijuana strains.
Violations & Fines
Growing even a few marijuana plants in Frisco is treated as manufacture under HSC §481.120, with penalties scaling by aggregate weight including plant material; small grows can still be charged as state-jail felonies.
