Even though botanists have certain privileges in space law concerning Drug Possession, they can still be arrested for growing dangerous plants. Without (preferably written) permission you will get arrested for growing plants, which can only do harm (like Death Nettles) and for distributing plants containing space-drugs / mindbreaker toxins etc. to non-medical-personnel. In most cases however, security will be too busy to check on you even once.
