Adults only (21+)

Marijuana Beginner is intended for adults 21 and older, or 18 and older with a valid medical marijuana recommendation where state law allows it. By using this site, you confirm that you meet these requirements.

Educational information only

Everything on this site is general educational information. It isn’t legal, medical or professional advice, and reading it doesn’t create any professional relationship.

• Legal: Marijuana laws differ by state and city and change often. Recreational marijuana remains illegal under federal law. Before you buy, possess, grow, travel with or use cannabis, check your state’s official sources or talk to a licensed attorney. Never take cannabis across state lines or onto federal land.
• Medical: Cannabis can interact with medications and affect people differently. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist before using it, especially if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition or take prescription drugs. Never drive or operate machinery while impaired.

We work hard to keep our content accurate and show when each state guide was last checked. Even so, we can’t guarantee that every detail is complete or current, and we aren’t liable for actions you take based on it.
