It makes sense that Nevada would be one of the first states to allow for recreational weed. In 2016, they legalized it— but that doesn't mean you're allowed to walk through Vegas with a joint rolling. Consumption of marijuana is restricted to private homes, as it remains illegal to consume it in public, except for licensed businesses with established on-site consumption lounges. Adults 21 and over with a valid I.D. can purchase up to an ounce of marijuana or one-eighth of an ounce of edibles or concentrates. Residents can grow up to six plants per person, with a maximum of 12 plants per household. On the other hand, medical marijuana has been legal in Nevada since 2000, allowing patients to possess up to 2.5 ounces and grow 12 plants.
