Where can you legally smoke recreational cannabis? Can you grow cannabis in your home? Is it OK for Wisconsinites to buy marijuana in Minnesota and bring it back home? Here are answers to all your questions about the new law.

Minnesotans are now able to legally possess and grow their own marijuana for recreational purposes, after the Minnesota Legislature approved a 300-page bill earlier this year, and Gov. Tim Walz signed it into law shortly thereafter. It became official Tuesday.

    Well, it’s not written that way.

    800 milligrams worth of THC-containing edible products

    That’s different from “800 mg of THC in edible products”. You can have 800 mg of THC in 100 g of THC-containing edibles. The way it’s written in the law matters a lot. If it’s written like above, edibles are basically illegal.

      I think that is just how the article described it.

      The actual bill says:

      …possess or transport edible cannabis products or lower-potency hemp edibles infused with a combined total of 800 milligrams or less of tetrahydrocannabinol

      Your point is further bolstered by the fact that many departments weigh the entire product when charging people with possession. Your 1lb tub of bud butter may only contain 1g of THC but they’re going to charge you with possession of 1lb of concentrates.
