How does Florida Define Marijuana?
Florida defines marijuana with precision and clarity. “Marijuana” means all parts of any plant of the genus Cannabis, whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of the plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of the plant or its seeds or resin, including low-THC cannabis, which are dispensed from a medical marijuana treatment center for medical use by a patient with medical marijuana qualifying conditions in Florida.
Here’s the essence:
- Definition: Marijuana encompasses all parts of any Cannabis plant, whether growing or not.
- Scope: This includes the seeds, the resin extracted from any part of the plant, and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of the plant or its seeds or resin.
- Exclusions: The term does not include marijuana as defined in section 381.986 if it’s in conformance with the section. It also does not include hemp as defined in other specific Florida statutes.
In short, Florida’s statement is comprehensive, covering all aspects of the Cannabis plant, while also making clear legal distinctions for medical use and hemp products. Simple, detailed, and legally precise.
