Asked Questions
Is medical marijuana legal in New Jersey?
Yes, medical marijuana is legal in New Jersey! The Garden State legalized MMJ back in 2010, becoming the 14th state in the US to do so.
Unfortunately, once Gov. Chris Christie took office in late January 2010, he stalled the legislation, preventing the medical marijuana program from opening for another two years. It wasn’t until August of 2012 that New Jersey finally started allowing patients onto the medical marijuana registry.
Are edibles legal in New Jersey?
For a while, edibles weren’t legal in New Jersey for medical patients. However, recently, the state has finally updated its New Jersey marijuana laws, allowing for edible forms of cannabis. Soon, you’ll be able to buy edibles capped at 100 mg. of THC.
Does New Jersey accept out-of-state medical marijuana cards?

Adult consumers can possess up to six ounces of cannabis or 17 grams of hash. Any more and this is a crime of the fourth degree.
