New Mexico Doubles Cannabis Growers’ Plant Count Prior to Adult-Use Sales

An emergency rule change in New Mexico that doubles the number of cannabis plants the state’s licensed producers can grow at one time took effect last week, increasing the limit from 10,000 to 20,000, the Albuquerque Journal reports.
