Per Curiam
Affirmed. See Bennett v. State, 111 So.3d 983, 986 (Fla. 1st DCA 2013) (recognizing that "a well-trained dog's alert establishes a fair probability-all that is required for probable cause-that either drugs or evidence of a drug crime . . . will be found") (quoting Florida v. Harris, 133 S.Ct. 1050, 1057 (2013)); see also Owens v. State, 317 So.3d 1218, 1220 (Fla. 2d DCA 2021) (holding that "regardless of whether the smell of marijuana is indistinguishable from that of hemp, the smell . . . from a vehicle continues to provide probable cause for a warrantless search of the vehicle"); Johnson v. State, 275 So.3d 800, 802 (Fla. 1st DCA 2019) (noting that "the possibility that a driver might be a medical-marijuana user would not automatically defeat probable cause").
