I don't think this is going to be a big as you guys think it is going to be. Florida is taking baby steps. We aren't talking about legalizing marijuana...just legalizing medical marijuana...and that wouldn't even happen until November 2014:

On January 25, 2014, the Florida Division of Elections today confirmed that proponents of a 2014 Florida measure to allow for the physician-supervised use of cannabis have gathered sufficient signatures to qualify for the November ballot. Also, the Florida Supreme Court has issued an advisory opinion finding the ballot language to be in compliance with Florida law.

The new Florida law will not allow home cultivation. It also falls short of legalizing marijuana for recreational use which was passed by voters in Colorado and Washington in 2012. Instead, it allows the possession and use of marijuana for medical purposes when approved by a physician.
