Nevada bars personal home cultivation if the grower lives within 25 miles of an operating dispensary, which covers virtually all of Las Vegas. Otherwise, adults may grow up to six plants per person and twelve per household.
NRS 678D allows adults 21+ to cultivate up to six cannabis plants for personal use, with a household cap of twelve, but only if the residence is more than 25 miles from any open licensed retailer. Las Vegas has dozens of dispensaries throughout the city, so the 25-mile carve-out effectively prohibits home grows for almost every city resident. Medical patients with a hardship cultivation registration can still grow, with stricter limits and security obligations. Outdoor cultivation visible from a public place is prohibited regardless of eligibility.
Growing without qualifying for the 25-mile rule, exceeding plant counts, or visible outdoor grows trigger seizure, citation, and possible state criminal charges depending on quantity.
