I am aware of Alaska's marijuana laws, but it is illegal to grow weed in your apartment which is in a school zone? How exactly does that work? Just cause ur place is in a school zone it is a felony, but everywhere else it isn't?
Are you sure you know AK's laws? Manufacture of more than one ounce is a felony. So growing is illegal, period. But at the same time, AK's law says POSSESSION of 25 marijuana plants or less is protected by privacy provisions in the state constitution. More than 25 plants is a not protected. The weirdness of their statute just illustrates how stupid prohibition is.

Bottom line, it's kind of illegal everywhere in AK and ANY possession is deffo a felony in a school zone. If that's your issue, I recommend moving!


Possession of one ounce or less of marijuana in the privacy of the home is legal. The status of possessing an amount between one ounce and four ounces is unclear, pending clarification by the courts. Possession of 4 ounces or more of marijuana is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000.
Possession of less than 25 plants is protected under the Alaska Constitution’s right to privacy (See Ravin v. Alaska). Possession of 25 or more marijuana plants is “Misconduct involving a controlled substance in the fourth degree” and is punishable by a fine of up to $50,000 or five years in prison.
Any possession within 500 feet of school grounds or a recreation center or possession on any school bus is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000.
Sale, delivery or manufactureof marijuana of less than one ounce is a misdemeanor and is punishable by up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $5,000. For amounts of one ounce or greater, the crime is a felony which can be punished with a sentence of up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000.
It is an affirmative defense to possession, manufacture or delivery that the offender is a patient or caregiver who is registered with the state for medical use of marijuana.
Maintaining any structure or dwelling, including vehicles, to use for keeping and distributing marijuana, is a felony offense and punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000.

If you are in Anchorage, it's not going to be an issue, you're about to make the aquaintence of Mount Redoubt, the Alaskan volcano.

If that baby blows, it's hard to say what will be left.
