What is the possession limit of cannabis flower for Illinois residents?

Illinois residents are allowed to possess up to 30 grams of cannabis flower for personal use. This limit was established as part of the Illinois Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act, which legalized the recreational use of cannabis in the state. The intent behind this limit is to allow adults to have a reasonable amount of cannabis for personal consumption without the risks associated with illegal possession.

The specifics of this regulation also distinguish between the amounts allowable for personal use and what is permissible for medical cannabis patients, who may have higher limits. The law aims to balance personal freedom with public safety and responsible usage. Understanding these legal limits is essential for compliance and for educating others about lawful cannabis use in Illinois.
