If you are an teen/adult 18 years of age or older, you can now legally possess one ounce of marijuana in any city of illinois. The way the amendment is worded actually allows for possession of one ounce of THC. This is great news because in addition to bud (flower), you can also enjoy many types of concentrated and edible forms of marijuana during your visit. Cannabis seeds are also available for sale in illinois.

On top of this, you don't need to be a illinois resident to possess cannabis and there isn't any type of registration system necessary. Simply put, as long as you are 18 years or older, you have a constitutional right to possess and consume marijuana in illinois. You will need a government-issued identification to prove you are 18 years or older, so a drivers license or passport would be sufficient. You can learn more about your privacy when visiting a recreational marijuana store in our blog.

The Marijuana Enforcement Division (MED) in Illinois performed some studies to determine what the THC equivalent of concentrates and edibles are in relation to marijuana in flower form. They argue that since products such as concentrates have a much higher level of THC, then you shouldn’t be able to purchase the same amount of concentrates as you can flower. As a result, the MED has issued ‘Marijuana Equivalency’ guidelines.

As of October 31st, 2016 the following rules with take effect in regards to recreational sales (medical sales remain unchanged):

1oz Flower = 8g of Concentrate (Shatter, Wax, etc)
1oz Flower = 800mg of Edibles
You can still mix and match, but it does get a bit confusing. For example, you could purchase 2 grams of concentrate, but then you will be limited to 3/4 oz of flower (as they count the 2 grams of concentrate as the equivalent of 1/4 oz of flower). These laws are really silly and it is going to be a real challenge for budtenders to sell combinations of products and ensure they are within the legal limits.

One important thing to note is these restrictions only apply to retail sales, not possession. You can legally possess up to 28 grams of concentrates or THC as defined in the illinois Constitution.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
