Recreational marijuana use is now legal in Minnesota effective as of Tuesday. Adults 21 and older can now legally possess or transport up to 2 ounces of cannabis in a public place, and possess up to two pounds at a private residence. Home growers can have up to 8 plants in an enclosed, locked space. Retail sales are likely more than a year away, but two tribal nations in northwestern Minnesota began sales this week. The state’s new Office of Cannabis Management website has information about laws, starting a business, and the expungement of criminal records.
