California Where is it safe to purchase & consume? According to California law, adults 21 and older may purchase marijuana from any state-licensed recreational cannabis dispensary with identification. How much weed can you buy in California? One ounce, or less than 28.35 grams, of adult-use, dried flower cannabis, and up to 8 grams of concentrated cannabis.

Do You Need a Medical Card to Buy From a Dispensary in California? No, you just need to have a state-issued identification card and be at least 21 years old.

Colorado Where is it safe to purchase & consume? Adults 21 and older and medical marijuana patients may purchase legal marijuana from any state-licensed dispensary. If patients are unable to make the transaction themselves, they may also designate a caregiver to purchase and deliver medical marijuana on their behalf. Patients may purchase from exclusively medical marijuana dispensaries. The state sales tax in Colorado is 2.9%, which applies to the sale of medical marijuana and medical marijuana products. Retail marijuana and marijuana-infused products are exempt from this sales tax — however, they are subject to a 15% retail marijuana tax, which is added to the final retail purchase price. While you can currently purchase marijuana only in a dispensary, the Colorado General Assembly passed HB 1234 in the 2019 legislative session allows cannabis delivery in Colorado, beginning Jan. 2, 2020 for medical marijuana; and for all adult-use marijuana beginning Jan. 2, 2021. Travelers cannot, however, bring marijuana to Denver International Airport or any other airport. Until recently, Colorado marijuana laws prohibited public consumption of cannabis; cannabis consumption was reserved for private, personal use in locations not open or accessible to the public. However, in 2019, the state passed HB 1230, which creates new business licenses for marijuana lounges, tasting rooms, and other cannabis-based hospitality businesses where consumers can bring and consume marijuana and marijuana-infused products.
