- New Hampshire
- Medical use: Legal
- Recreational: No
New Hampshire has had an established medical marijuana program since 2013, though recreational marijuana hasn't been established. With the medical program comes a little bit more of a relaxed attitude towards cannabis. Small amounts of cannabis for personal use are decriminalized, but anything over those limits might get you small fines or drug counseling. Patients aged 18 and older with a valid registry card can purchase up to 2 ounces of weed at a time, with purchases capped at 2 ounces maximum within a 10-day period.
