iWantClones ships HpLVd-screened cannabis clones to every Mississippi ZIP code under the federal 2018 Farm Bill hemp framework. Mississippi legalized medical cannabis in February 2022 through Senate Bill 2095 after voters approved Initiative 65 in November 2020 (later invalidated by the MS Supreme Court, forcing the legislative route). The framework is in Mississippi Code Title 41, Chapter 137. Home cultivation is NOT authorized for patients — they purchase from licensed dispensaries. Recreational cannabis remains illegal.
