Nova Scotia rules to know before you order
Federal rule: Health Canada says adults of legal age may grow a maximum of 4 cannabis plants per household (not per person), subject to provincial, territorial and municipal rules. Health Canada also advises getting seeds from an authorized retailer in your province or territory.
Nova Scotia: The Government of Nova Scotia states that adults 19 or older can grow up to four cannabis plants per household, that each apartment in a building counts as a separate household, that landlords may set their own growing rules in a lease, and that municipal bylaws may restrict cultivation further. Check the Government of Nova Scotia and the Halifax Regional Municipality for current requirements before you grow.
Laws change and municipalities can add their own rules, so check the official pages below and your local authority. This page is general information, not legal advice.
Choosing seeds for Halifax
Seed type matters more than the label on the bag. Feminized seeds are bred to produce female plants. Autoflower seeds flower with age rather than with the light cycle. Regular seeds give a natural mix of males and females.
Atlantic Canada’s outdoor season can turn cool and damp early in the fall, so fast-finishing genetics are usually the safest choice. No strain is 100% mould resistant; mould-tolerant genetics help but do not replace airflow. Browse autoflower seeds, outdoor seeds, cannabis seeds for beginners or all marijuana seeds.
