CALIFORNIA DISPENSARIES

Q: Is Cannabis Legal in California?

Yes, cannabis is legal in California. Medical cannabis has been legal since 1996 under Proposition 215, or the “Compassionate Use Act.” Additionally, the adult use of cannabis was legalized through Proposition 64, the Adult Use of cannabis Act, with sales becoming legal on January 1, 2018. Adults aged 21 and over can purchase cannabis for recreational use without needing a medical cannabis identification card or a physician’s recommendation.

Q: Can I smoke cannabis in public in California?

No, you cannot smoke or ingest cannabis in public places in California. Consumption must occur in a private space, even with a medical license. Businesses with a commercial consumption license are the exception.

Q: Does California accept out-of-state medical cards?

California does not have a reciprocity program for medical cannabis, meaning out-of-state medical cards are not accepted. However, out-of-state patients can apply for a California MMIC to purchase from medical dispensaries.

Q: Where is it safe to use marijuana in CA?

Cannabis use is legal in private residences in California. However, it's crucial to remember that federal lands, non-smoking areas, motor vehicles, planes, and areas within 1000 feet of schools or daycare centers are off-limits for cannabis use. For a more social setting, California offers cannabis consumption lounges. These lounges, often located within dispensaries, provide a unique, communal space for responsible and legal cannabis use.

Q: Do I still need a medical card in California?

In California, while you have the liberty to purchase recreational cannabis without a medical card if you're 21 or older, there are distinct advantages to having a Medical cannabis Identification Card (MMICP). This card, obtained through a physician's recommendation, not only allows you to acquire medical cannabis but also comes with certain privileges. One of the key benefits is the ability to purchase quantities of cannabis that exceed the limits set for recreational users. Moreover, holding an MMICP exempts you from paying sales tax on your cannabis purchases, leading to potential savings. It's an option worth considering for frequent users or those with specific medical needs.
