(WSIL) -- It has been a busy start to 2020 all across Illinois.

On the inaugural day of adult-use cannabis sales across the state the Pritzker administration released the following statement:

“As we start a new decade, Illinois has achieved a monumental milestone – launching the legalization of cannabis in a way that includes communities left behind for far too long, creates good jobs and expunges thousands of records for those who have lost out on opportunities and ends prohibition,” said Toi Hutchinson, Senior Advisor to the Governor for Cannabis Control. “Today is a historic new day, and as we move forward with growing this industry, I thank all those who worked hard to make the launch a success and will continue to dedicate themselves to expanding opportunities and righting the wrongs of the past.”

ANNA (WSIL) -- Huge lines are forming outside of the dispensaries. This is the scene around 11:30 a.m. at Thrive in Anna.

CARTERVILLE (WSIL) -- Illinois is now the 11th state to allow recreational marijuana.

At the Harbory in Marion, people started lining up at around 4:30 a.m. and the parking lot was completely full by 6:30 a.m. The Harbory will be the first dispensary in Southern Illinois to open Wednesday morning selling recreational marijuana.

Illinois residents 21 and older can buy up to 30 grams of marijuana plant material, edibles with up to 500 milligrams of THC and five grams of cannabis concentrate items. If you're not an Illinois resident, you can buy half those amounts.

Marijuana can be consumed in a private residence and local jurisdictions may allow on-site consumption at dispensaries. It is also illegal to cross into neighboring states like Missouri and Kentucky.
