Some things could be adapted/appropriated quickly such as transplanting, fertilizing, and company buying points.

Other parts will need more time/money: harvesting equipment, on-farm processing and storage, company processing plants, etc.

If it was legalized tomorrow I think farmers and companies could have enough of the details worked out to really have the industry chugging along in....2-3 years, depending on margins and capital availability.

Of course I don't think we're anywhere close to nationwide legalization, so who knows when the clock will start ticking.

Growing marijuana is distinctly different than growing other crops. Traditional farming models aren't going to work. Grow operations are quite difficult to scale.

source: grow marijuana as a hobby. It isn't that hard to grown, but it ain't growing tomatoes. So much can go wrong.
