It's totally legal over here, and we have a massive and thriving medical marijuana community. You can buy weed for whatever you want, but the shops out here literally specialize in marijuana for medical purposes. These guys actually know what strains of marijuana can treat what ailments, and have cbd oils, gummies, etc. They're effectively plant biologists specializing in cultivating and selling marijuana, but without college degrees in plant biology. And the good news is that you don't need a prescription for any of it! The medical marijuana card is now basically used for those who have jobs that prohibit the use of drugs, and it's a get out of jail free card, so to speak.
The funny thing is that Marinol is the synthetic/prescription version of marijuana. And nearly no one is using it because why bother with a biochemcial that costs a lot, when you can get the real thing for a lot cheaper?
