A Gympie region man will spend the next six weeks in jail after he was caught with marijuana only four months after being convicted of growing the illegal drug.
James Justin John Wickmann was caught with 31g of the plant when police executed a search warrant at his home at The Palms on March 10.
Gympie Magistrates Court heard Wickmann told officers he had the drug and a bong in his house but their search also turned up clip-seal bags containing marijuana in a white plastic container, and another small container with chopped marijuana.
Wickmann had been in Gympie District Court only four months earlier to plead guilty to multiple charges, including producing the dangerous drug.
