An Act Regarding Sun-Grown Cultivation In The Medical Use And Adult Use Cannabis Industries

This bill defines "sun-grown cultivator" as a caregiver who grows cannabis without artificial light. It establishes higher annual cultivation limits for sun-grown caregivers in Maine's medical cannabis program: up to 150 mature plants or 2,500 square feet of mature canopy per year, compared to lower limits for other cultivation methods. The bill also requires separate cultivation areas for mature plants, immature plants, and seedlings, with a maximum of two cultivation sites total. These changes apply specifically to medical caregivers registered for sun-grown cultivation, aiming to support outdoor growing practices.
