Growing at home

Growing cannabis plants at home is legal. Adults 19+ can grow up to four non-medical cannabis plants per household. These plants cannot be grown in a space that is visible from a public place, like parks, streets, sidewalks, sports fields, and K-12 school properties. For example, you can grow plants on your balcony, or in your yard, as long as they’re not visible from a public place.

Growing cannabis at home is banned in homes used as licensed child care.

Landlords and strata corporations can further restrict or prohibit growing non-medical cannabis on their properties.

Local and Indigenous government can also further restrict growing non-medical cannabis at home under existing powers to establish bylaws.
