“High Hurdles, Happy Highs: Navigating Daily Purchase Limits for Cannabis in Michigan”
Welcome cannabis enthusiasts of the Great Lakes State! If you’re new to the world of recreational marijuana in Michigan or a seasoned connoisseur, understanding the daily purchasing limits is crucial. Let’s dive into the dos and don’ts of buying your favorite green goodies in this friendly guide.
First things first: as of December 2019, Michigan became one of the Midwest’s greenest destinations, joining Colorado, California, and other trailblazing states that have embraced recreational cannabis. But with this newfound freedom comes some rules to follow, and daily purchase limits are a key aspect.
So, what’s the deal? Michigan law sets the daily purchase limit for an adult aged 21 or older at:
– One ounce of usable marijuana (flower)
– 16 ounces of marijuana-infused solids, such as edibles
– 7 grams of marijuana concentrate, including oils and waxes
– 5 grams of marijuana-infused marijuana products, like cannabis-infused drinks
– No more than 12 seedlings or six immature plants per household
That’s quite a handful (pun intended)! But don’t worry; we’re here to help you sort it out.
First, let’s break down the quantity of each type of product you can buy:
– One ounce of marijuana flower – This should be enough for about 30 joints or 7-10 days of moderate use, depending on your consumption habits.
– 16 ounces of marijuana-infused solids – Think edibles like brownies, cookies, or gummies. That’s a lot of treats, but remember: they need to be consumed responsibly!
– 7 grams of concentrates – These powerful products are typically used in small amounts, so 7 grams can last quite some time.
– 5 grams of marijuana-infused products – This includes drinks like cannabis-infused soda or coffee. Be mindful of the potency and start low to gauge your tolerance.
– Six immature plants per household – For those who enjoy growing their own, keep in mind that only six can be mature at a time, with 12 seedlings allowed.
Now, let’s talk about how these limits affect your shopping trips:
– You can purchase from multiple dispensaries each day but cannot exceed the daily limits for each type of product. For example, if you buy 2 grams of concentrate at one shop and 5 grams at another, that’s still only 7 grams total per day.
– Remember, these limits reset at midnight each day, so you can stock up once the clock strikes twelve!
While daily purchase limits might seem restrictive to some, they were put in place to protect consumers from potential overconsumption and ensure an even distribution of products across the state. So, whether you’re a casual user or a cannabis connoisseur, follow these guidelines to stay within the law and enjoy your Michigan highs responsibly!
Stay green, Michigan friends, and happy shopping!
