In 2018, the first state in the Midwest decided to make Marijuana legal in Michigan for recreational use. However, certain limitations exist when buying and using Marijuana in the Great Lake State, and if you don’t know the rules, you can quickly find yourself in a grey area that can get you in trouble with the local law.
Marijuana is still illegal under federal law; however, many states still allow it, and the laws of these states vary from each other. (Sounds like a headache, we know! But keep reading; we’ll give you a better alternative to avoid this headache around Marijuana laws.)
Michigan was one of the very early stages to embrace medical Marijuana. The State passed the Michigan Compassionate Care Initiative in 2008, issuing medical marijuana cards to those with qualifying medical conditions.
If you’re trying to get your MMJ card to purchase Cannabis in Michigan, it’s pretty easy. Just follow these steps:
In 2018, Michigan decided to legalize recreational marijuana for personal use. This legislation allowed the purchase of a limited amount of Cannabis by adults (21 years old and older) for adult-use Cannabis from licensed Michigan dispensaries.
That said, you can still get the same benefits of Marijuana legally with industrial hemp products such as our organic Delta-8 Gummies and Delta-8 Tincture for pain and anxiety while maintaining a good high.
Marijuana is still a controlled substance on a federal level. However, Hemp was federally legalized under the 2018 Farm bill.
First, both Hemp and Marijuana can be classified as Cannabis. The main distinction is MJ has more than 0.3% Delta 9 THCs, whereas Hemp has less.
The current definition of a controlled substance is “one with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse.”
However, the 2018 Farm Bill removed Hemp from that definition, making it and all of its derivatives federally legal, as long as the end product contains less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC of total dry weight.
While Hemp became federally legal, Marijuana and its derivates are not federally legal, so the possession and use of Cannabis could incur some harsh penalties.
It’s avoiding most legal complications while being offered at a great price, and best of all, you can even buy it online! That means if you’re in a state that didn’t pass the legalization of Marijuana, you can still get some hemp goodies delivered to your door.
*Some states may have reservations and different laws for hemp-derived THC products. Always check your local law and provider policy.
The good news is you can legally order dispensary-grade THC gummies online as long they are hemp-derived. And what’s even cooler is that THC from Hemp works the same way as THC from Marijuana, which is legal in Michigan. Ready to ditch the long drive for a few clicks on your phone? Order here.
Both plants have tremendous health benefits, thanks to the cannabinoids and compounds they produce. That said, both plants produce pretty much the same cannabinoids at varying percentages, ex. Marijuana produces more THC, while Hemp produces more CBD. Hemp can be helpful for both patients and recreational users.
If you’re using medical Cannabis, aka Marijuana for pain, you can find a great alternative in hemp-sourced Delta-8 oil and our mouth-watering Delta-8 gummies, or you can even go for some Delta-9 gummies.
If medical Marijuana is your go-to option to ease anxiety and depression, then our full spectrum CBD gummies mellow drops will be your new bestie; these little gummies are the most delicious “Chill-pills” you’ll ever try!

As mentioned above, while Marijuana is legal to buy and consume in the Great Lake State of Michigan, the state has specific regulations limiting its usage. Make sure to read through this article to learn the details.
The shortest answer is at your own home! It is illegal to use it in a public place and in locations that follow federal law instead of state law, such as the airport and areas where children could be present such as schools and parks.
Possession could be tricky, but to simplify: You can possess and carry on you only 2.5 ounces in public, but you can possess up to 10 ounces at your home/place of residence.
Consumers can buy up to 2.5 ounces of Cannabis from Michigan dispensaries and up to 15 grams of concentrate with or without a medical card.
Simply put, you can’t sell it in Michigan, but you can gift it privately.
In Michigan, because marijuana is legal, adults may carry and transfer up to 2.5 oz of Marijuana to another adult because there is no money or anything else exchanged for it, and it’s not promoted to the public.
In Michigan, you may grow marijuana plants up to 12 plants at your residence for personal use as long as they are not visible from a public place.

Suppose you’re not interested in driving or need an alternative to regular weed, as mentioned earlier. In that case, hemp-derived THC is as good as what you find in Michigan dispensaries, but the difference is you can order it online, whereas, with Marijuana, you cannot.
Just to give you a glimpse:
If you’re looking for some good ole edibles, check out our Delta-9 THC gummies. On the flip side, if you want the upper and energy feeling, Delta-10 THC is where it’s at… or if you want the sweet middle ground of relaxation and an awesome high, go for our Delta-8 THC.
Adhering to the Michigan laws above helps you possess and use cannabis legally. However, a violation could bring you some harsh penalties, such as:
The sale, distribution, and cultivation of Cannabis could be a felony punishable by imprisonment. Hefty fines may be imposed depending on the number of plants grown and the amount of usable Cannabis sold.
With the public warming up to the medical benefits of Marijuana and Hemp, more dispensaries are opening in cannabis-friendly states such as Michigan. You can buy up to 2.5 oz of cannabis products from recreational Michigan dispensaries without a medical marijuana card.
That said, the difference between state law and federal law can be confusing and lead to unsavory situations, which is why hemp products are a much safer and more accessible option for both patients and fun seekers alike.
