How Many MG of Edibles Can I Buy in Michigan?
Michigan, like many other states in the US, has legalized the use of cannabis for both medical and recreational purposes. With the legalization of recreational marijuana, the state has implemented certain regulations and restrictions on the purchase and consumption of edibles. If you’re wondering how many milligrams (MG) of edibles you can buy in Michigan, read on to find out more.
In Michigan, the legal limit for edibles is 100 milligrams of THC per package for recreational users. This means that each package of edibles can contain up to 100 milligrams of THC, which is the psychoactive compound found in cannabis that produces the “high” effect. It’s important to note that this limit applies to each individual package, not the total amount of edibles you can buy in one transaction.
While the legal limit is set at 100 milligrams of THC per package, it is advisable to start with a lower dosage, especially if you are new to edibles or have a low tolerance. Edibles can take longer to kick in compared to other forms of consumption such as smoking or vaping, so it’s essential to be patient and allow enough time for the effects to take place before consuming more.
