A proposal to legalize the private cultivation of cannabis for patients has been approved by New Hampshire’s House of Representatives in a decisive 227 to 73 vote.

Under the proposed law, House Bill 1622, patients or their caregiver would be authorized to cultivate up to 2 maturing cannabis plants, and up to 12 seedlings, as long as they’re not within 30 miles of a medical cannabis dispensary (which were legalized last year, but won’t open until next year).

The proposal was introduced by Republican Representative Donald Wright, and is cosponsored by a bipartisan coalition of lawmakers.

The measure now heads to the Senate.
