Puff, Puff, and Keep Counting: Understanding Michigan’s Daily Cannabis Purchase Limit
Welcome cannabis enthusiasts! In the vibrant state of Michigan, recreational marijuana has been legalized, bringing a breath of fresh air to the Mitten State. But with this newfound freedom comes some rules and regulations, one of them being the daily purchase limit. So, let’s dive into understanding how much green you can really bring home!
Michigan’s recreational marijuana law, enacted in 2018, allows adults aged 21 and over to possess and use up to 2.5 ounces (71 grams) of cannabis or up to 15 grams of concentrated forms like oils and waxes. However, when it comes to purchasing, the limit is a bit more specific.
At retail stores, an individual can buy and possess up to:
– 2.5 ounces (71 grams) of cannabis flower
– 15 grams of concentrated marijuana
– 16 ounces (453.6 grams) of edibles in total (not more than 10 milligrams THC per individual serving)
– 72 ounces (2 liters) of cannabis-infused beverages in total (not more than 10 milligrams THC per 12 fluid ounces or 354.8 milliliters)
Now, here’s where the daily limit comes into play: In a single day, you can purchase up to 1 ounce (28.35 grams) of cannabis flower and 5 grams of concentrates from a licensed marijuana establishment. This means you could buy 5 individual servings of edibles with up to 50 milligrams of THC each or a combination that totals up to 16 ounces. For beverages, you can purchase up to 2 liters (or their equivalent) in a day.
It’s essential to keep track of your purchases to ensure you stay within the daily limit. Exceeding this limit could lead to fines or other legal consequences. Remember, these limits are designed for personal use; selling marijuana without a license is illegal.
Another important thing to note is that Michigan’s retail stores aren’t allowed to sell cannabis products to the same individual more than once every 15 minutes. This measure aims to prevent individuals from circumventing the daily purchase limit.
Michigan law also allows for home cultivation of up to twelve marijuana plants per household, with no more than 12 immature plants. However, only three of those plants can be mature at a time.
In conclusion, Michigan’s cannabis regulations aim to ensure safe and responsible use while supporting the local economy. By understanding these rules, you can enjoy your favorite strains without any legal hassles. So, whether you’re a seasoned stoner or a curious newcomer, Michigan’s cannabis scene has something for everyone. Happy exploring!
