OHIO CANNABIS RULES ARE CHANGING AND CUSTOMERS WILL FEEL THE DIFFERENCE.
New state rules taking effect in October are changing the amount of THC that can be included in many adult-use cannabis packages. The rules cover flower, vapes, concentrates, edibles, beverages, capsules, topicals and more.
Here are some of the biggest changes:
* Edibles: 10mg THC per serving, 100mg per package
* Beverages: 10mg per container, up to 12 containers per package
* Flower: Maximum 1 ounce per package
* Vapes: Up to 3 devices/cartridges, with 2g maximum each and 90% THC cap
* Concentrates: Up to 3 containers, with 2g maximum per container and a 90% THC cap
* Capsules/pills: Up to 50mg per unit and 1g THC per package
* Patches: Up to 50mg per patch and 500mg per package
* Topicals: Up to 3 ounces/85g and 1g THC per package
The changes also mean dispensaries have had to review existing inventory to make sure products comply. For some consumers, getting the same total amount of THC they previously purchased could now require multiple packages instead of one.
For smaller dispensaries, that can also mean more inventory reviews, staff training and potential product losses as businesses adjust to the new requirements.
Ohio's updated rules officially set these package and THC limits for cannabis sold directly to adult-use customers.
What do you think of Ohio’s new cannabis limits—will they make purchasing safer and clearer, or create more cost and confusion for consumers? 👇🏾
