Ohio Set to Launch Recreational Marijuana Sales in Mid-June

New regulations approved, paving the way for dual licenses for existing dispensaries to sell both medical and recreational cannabis.

Ohio lawmakers have resolved months of legislative deadlock to approve rules for adult-use marijuana sales.
Applications for dual licenses will be available by June 7, with sales expected to begin by mid-June.
The new law allows adults 21 and over to purchase and possess up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana and grow up to six plants individually.
Revenue from marijuana sales will be allocated to administrative costs, addiction treatment, and social equity programs.
Governor Mike DeWine, despite opposing legalization, urged swift legislative action to prevent black market growth.
