Illegal cultivation of marijuana plants in California typically refers to growing cannabis without complying with state and local laws. This could include:

  1. Growing more plants than allowed by law.
  2. Cultivating cannabis without the necessary permits or licenses.
  3. Growing cannabis in prohibited areas, such as near schools or parks.
  4. Engaging in cultivation activities that violate environmental regulations, such as illegal water diversions or the use of banned pesticides.
  5. Cultivating cannabis for sale without proper authorization, such as operating an unlicensed commercial grow operation.

These activities can result in legal consequences, including fines, property seizure, and criminal charges. It’s essential to adhere to California’s cannabis laws and regulations to avoid legal issues. Current state laws allow California residents 21 years and older to cultivate up to six cannabis plants in a single private residence
