Background
Patients with valid medical cannabis prescriptions often face high costs and difficulty accessing the correct strains. We believe allowing them to grow up to six plants at home would make treatment more affordable, provide consistent access, and offer therapeutic benefits from cultivation, while ensuring safety through secure growing conditions and LED lighting requirements.
