    I’ve got some mates who live in MN and you’re limited to 10mg edibles and drinkables, no regular Delta 9 bud, and weak solvent vape pens (no resin or rosin)

    Their shitty republican neighbor state has real bud and more than 10mg consumables…

    MN is almost there re:pot, but not quite!

      That’s because the DFL took advantage of a VERY brief Trifecta in the state government to pass legal weed, and now they’ve had to spend years waring through Republican jiggery pokery in order to even get an official management body to oversee licenses and regulation.

      Come to Michigan. Help us go from a swing state to a solid blue, and enjoy some of the cheapest high quality legal weed you can find.

      MN is a state where businesses couldn’t sell alcohol on Sundays only until a couple of years ago. We’re weird about very specific things.

        Aren’t there weird laws that require bars to have a pot of soup cooking during business hours, even if nobody ever orders it?

        It’s perfectly understandable. A Minnesotan mustn’t be too joyful. “It could be worse” are the words for a Minnesotan to live by. Allowing alcohol on Sunday brings it uncomfortably close to “I’m doing great”

      They made a shit show out of the licencing. First they sold permits, but then decided they were going to favor minorities in the licencing process. Royalty pissing off people who had already paid the huge fee. The new scheme got struck down in the courts. Now nobody knows what’s happening with it. Except the tribes, who are the only people able to commercially grow at the moment. Total shit show, a Minnesota classic.

      But you can grow your own.

      I live near a dispensary and they sell a lot more than that, I think it’s only hemp that’s restricted. Edibles and stuff you can buy the pound of you can swallow the taxes.

        My mate has to go to WI to get 20mg+. No shot of getting at Minnesota and it fucking sucks that it takes all of her break to go get it

          Not sure what to tell you, live near the IA border and people to south to get cheep cigarettes and people come north to get weed products. Only complaints people have is the half hour drive of corn fields.
