In Arizona, marijuana laws allow for both medical and recreational use. Proposition 203, passed in 2010, legalized medical marijuana, allowing patients to possess up to 2.5 ounces of usable marijuana every 14 days and cultivate up to 12 plants. Additionally, adults aged 21 and over can legally use, possess, and purchase up to 1 ounce of marijuana, with restrictions on marijuana concentrates. However, smoking or vaping marijuana in public remains illegal. Better yet, adults are allowed to grow up to six plants at home.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I transport marijuana across state lines if I purchased it legally in Arizona?
No. Transporting marijuana across state lines is a federal offense, even if you are traveling to a state where marijuana is legal. It’s best to consume your purchase within Arizona.
Are there restrictions on home cultivation of marijuana in Arizona?
Yes. Adults 21 and older can grow up to six plants per person, with a household limit of 12 plants if two or more adults live there. However, plants must be cultivated in a secure, locked area out of public view.
What are the rules for marijuana edibles and concentrates in Arizona?
Recreational users can possess up to 5 grams of marijuana concentrate, including edibles. Medical patients can possess higher amounts as prescribed by their doctor, but all products must comply with state potency and packaging regulations.
