Eh, I lived in alaska for a bit, and the cops really REALLY dislike people growing. Had to cite the law in order not to get arrested more than once... Best place by far, and always has been, is California. So long as you don't live in the central valley or any other uber conservative section, weed is practically legal. I got my 215 for literally no medical reason, I just said weed makes me sleep better and the doctor told me what to write in. Another one of my friends had something go wrong with his back due to water polo, and he was able to get a state card and is allowed to grow up to 99 plants. So I would say CA is your best bet, plus if prop 19 passes then you won't even need a card to grow your own supply.
