Michigan medical marijuana card

Michigan medical marijuana card evaluation online

Michigan's Medical Marihuana Program, run by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency, still makes sense for many people even with adult-use cannabis legal. A physician certification leads to a two-year registry card, and medical purchases skip the extra excise tax. Registered patients may also grow up to 12 plants at home, double what adult-use rules allow.
