Cannabis Laws in Mississippi

Is weed legal in Mississippi? Medical only — cannabis is legal for registered medical patients, but not for general adult use.

Mississippi's medical program serves registered patients through licensed dispensaries. Resident cardholders may purchase 24 Medical Cannabis Equivalency Units per 30 days and possess 28 units at one time. One unit equals 3.5 g of flower, giving flower-equivalent limits of 84 g purchased and 98 g possessed. Home cultivation is prohibited; nonresident registrations have separate rules.

Federally, cannabis is still a controlled substance nationwide — but that status is in flux. See where rescheduling stands →
