Medical marijuana patients in North Dakota would be allowed to grow their own pot for personal use under legislation before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Lawmakers took testimony on Senate Bill 22-34 today (Tuesday). The measure would limit production to eight plants and require the marijuana to be grown in an enclosed and locked facility.
