LANSING, MI — Pot growers across the state are keeping a close eye on bipartisan bills in Lansing that have been introduced by the Legislature to cut the amount of marijuana plants people can grow from 60 to 12.
The measures would also dramatically shrink the amount of pot grown by caregivers. The bills reduce the number of medical patients that can be served by a caregiver growing pot from five to one.
The Michigan Cannabis Manufacturers Association is backing the bills, citing their study from June that found almost two-thirds of all marijuana sales in the state are outside the legal, licensed market.
