Drug Cultivation
All activity connected with growing marijuana is prohibited by California Health and Safety Code 11358, including the handling of the seeds, cultivating them in soil, and the drying and processing of the harvested plants. If more than one plant is found, you may be charged with possession with intent to sell, which is a more serious charge.
Conviction of this crime may lead to imprisonment. If the offender is let off with probation, he or she may have to report to a probation officer for 3 years, pay hefty fines, and may have to serve up to one year in a county jail.
