“Puff, Puff, and Keep Counting: Understanding the Daily Purchase Limit for Marijuana in Michigan”
Welcome, cannabis enthusiasts of the Great Lakes State! Today, we’re diving into a topic that is both popular and regulated – the daily purchase limit for marijuana in Michigan. Let’s take a puff-filled journey through the Mitten State’s green landscape.
Michigan has been leading the charge in cannabis reform, becoming the first state in the Midwest to legalize recreational marijuana back in 2018. Fast forward three years, and the industry is thriving. But with this blossoming market comes the need for clear regulations, one of which is the daily purchase limit.
So, how much green can you bring home after a day at your local dispensary? According to the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA), adult-use marijuana establishments cannot sell more than 2.5 ounces (70 grams) of usable marijuana to a patient or resident per visit, and no more than 15 grams of marijuana concentrate per day.
But wait, there’s more! For non-residents, the daily limit is even lower – only 2.5 ounces in a 15-day period. So, if you’re visiting from out of state, don’t plan on bringing home more than half an ounce per trip unless you have friends to help you stock up!
Now, you might be wondering, “What about edibles and other marijuana products?” Michigan has separate limits for these items as well. For marijuana-infused edibles, the daily limit is 15 grams of solid edible products or 72 fluid ounces (2 liters) of marijuana-infused liquid products. But remember, these totals are part of the overall 2.5-ounce and 15-gram concentration limits per day.
It’s important to note that these daily purchase limits apply to each visit to a licensed marijuana establishment. So, if you plan on hitting multiple dispensaries in one day (we don’t judge), keep track of your purchases to stay within the legal limit.
One final thing to consider is the role of caregivers and provisioning centers in this equation. Caregivers can grow up to 12 marijuana plants per patient, with a maximum of five patients per caregiver, so they might be able to help you stock up beyond the daily limits. However, caregivers are not allowed to sell marijuana or marijuana-infused products, even to their registered patients.
In conclusion, while Michigan offers an extensive selection of cannabis products, it’s crucial to understand the daily purchase limits to ensure a smooth shopping experience. So, keep your purchases in check, enjoy the vast selection, and remember – responsible use is key! Stay high, stay informed, and we’ll see you at the next dispensary tour!
