It depends upon the charge, and upon legal standards being satisfactorily met. For Pennsylvania tends to focus on extradition requests in the immediately surrounding states. But the Commonwealth also tends to respect, and cooperate with, the other 49 states of the United States of America in extradition requests. For extradition tends to be requested for the serious, felony charges. And Pennsylvania cooperates when the U.S. government becomes involved once the role of Another Country is identified. For involvement of another country always makes extradition a federal concern.

If you have a misdemeanor marijuana possession charge from Wyoming will California be likely to extradite you on that charge?

In general, No. On a misdemeanor charge extradition over a long distance is generally not going to happen. The State or jurisdiction that has the charge must pay for someone to come pick you up if you are arrested in another State. This is expensive and most jurisdictions will not want to pay this cost so they don't extradite over long distances.

Can fl extradite someone in Colorado -for the charge of knowley giving false name to law enforcement?

Generally states will only extradite someone on serious offenses. I would suggest staying in Colorado and not getting closer to Florida as then you will be detained until they decide if they want to pick you up or not. False Name to Police is generally a misdemeanor and the states don't have money to extradite someone over a crime that carries less than a year in jail.
