Following New York's Home Cannabis Cultivation Approval, This Company Is Giving Away Hundreds Of Seeds For Free

New York has officially approved the home cultivation of cannabis, heralding a new era for adult consumers eager to grow their own plants. This landmark move has sparked enthusiasm among cannabis advocates and businesses alike, eager to support the burgeoning community of home growers.

In celebration of this progressive shift, cannabis seed company ILGM (I Love Growing Marijuana) has announced an exciting giveaway. Starting this week, ILGM will provide 420 New Yorkers with $100 worth of cannabis seeds each, a gesture aimed at empowering and encouraging responsible cultivation practices across the state.

“We’re thrilled about New York’s progressive move to allow home cultivation,” said Ernst Rustenhoven, CEO of ILGM. “To mark this significant occasion, we want to give back to the community by giving high-quality seeds that will help both new and experienced users embark on their home-growing journey.”

Empowering Home Growers

The initiative by ILGM is part of a broader mission to promote informed and rewarding cannabis cultivation. Residents of New York can enter the giveaway by signing up through a dedicated form on ILGM’s website. Once they confirm their registration via email, participants will receive a discount code worth $100 off on ILGM's seeds.

Winners will be selected on a first-come, first-served basis, limited to the first 420 participants.

Navigating The New Landscape

For New Yorkers, the path to home cultivation is now open, but it comes with responsibilities. The state has laid out guidelines to ensure safe and compliant growing practices. Adult residents can now legally grow up to six plants per person, with a maximum of twelve plants per household. These regulations aim to balance personal freedom with public safety, ensuring that home cultivation is conducted responsibly.

The move was met with widespread approval from the cannabis community. Many see it as a victory for personal rights and a step toward reducing the illicit market. By providing a legal avenue for home cultivation, New York is not only empowering its residents but also fostering a more transparent and regulated cannabis market.
