About Purchasing Medical Marijuana Products at CA Dispensaries
When visiting a medical dispensary in California, patients can expect to be greeted by knowledgeable staff who are trained to assist with choosing the right products for their specific needs. Patients will need to show their valid medical marijuana card and government-issued ID before making a purchase.
Dispensaries may also offer additional services such as educational resources on different strains and consumption methods, as well as delivery options for those who may have difficulty physically going to the dispensary.
In California, patients are limited to purchasing up to one ounce of cannabis per day from a licensed dispensary, with exceptions for those whose medical conditions require more.
What Types of Marijuana Products Can You Buy?
California medical marijuana dispensaries offer a variety of forms of cannabis including flower/buds, edibles, concentrates, topicals, and tinctures.
- Flower/Buds: This is the most common form of cannabis available at dispensaries. It refers to the dried and cured buds of the cannabis plant, which can then be smoked or vaporized.
- Edibles: These are food products that have been infused with cannabis extract. They come in a wide range of options including cookies, brownies, gummies, and more.
- Concentrates: These are highly potent forms of cannabis that have been extracted from the plant using various methods. Examples include oils, wax, shatter, and live resin.
- Topical: These are products such as creams, lotions, and balms that have been infused with cannabis extract. They are used for localized pain relief and do not produce psychoactive effects.
- Tinctures: These are liquid extracts of cannabis that are taken sublingually (under the tongue). They are usually high in CBD and provide quick relief without the need for smoking or inhaling.
