Arizona Proposition 207 allows adults 21 and older in Tucson to grow up to six cannabis plants per person, capped at twelve per household, only in a locked enclosed area not visible from any public place.
Under ARS §36-2852, codified after Proposition 207 (2020), an individual 21 or older may possess up to six living plants. A residence with two or more adults is capped at twelve plants total regardless of how many adults live there. Plants must be in an enclosed and locked area such as a garage, locked greenhouse, or interior room. The cultivation site cannot be visible from public view, including from streets, sidewalks, or neighboring lots. Tucson does not impose a stricter local cap, but landlords may prohibit cultivation through lease terms. The state allows possession of up to one ounce of usable flower for personal use.
Plants visible from public space are a petty offense for first violations. Exceeding twelve per household, sale, or unlocked cultivation can be charged as misdemeanors or felonies under ARS Title 13.
