In the Magnolia State, marijuana laws are a bit nuanced. While recreational use and cultivation are illegal, possession of small amounts (up to 30 grams) has been decriminalized and is considered a civil offense, carrying a $250 fine for first-time offenders. The cultivation and recreational use of marijuana remain illegal.
However, an exception was made in 2020 for medical marijuana which was made legal by the passage of Initiative 65. It allows patients with more than 20 specified debilitating conditions to use medical marijuana. Each patient may possess up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana every 14 days.
