Reminder: Save this article to read offline later.
Medical Marijuana? Giddy-Up! Oklahoma has one of the most relaxed medical marijuana programs in the US. If you have a doctor's recommendation (and let's be honest, who doesn't have a cousin who's a doctor in Oklahoma?), you can get a license and legally light up. Just remember, a recommendation ain't a participation trophy. There's a whole process, so be sure to saddle up and do your research.
Recreational? Hold Your Horses! Nope, not yet. Recreational marijuana is still chillin' outside the law. So, don't expect to light up a doobie at the next town hoedown (unless it's a very private hoedown).

But Wait, There's More!
This wouldn't be Oklahoma without a few twists. Here's some extra info to keep you from getting bucked off:
- Possession Without a License? Don't Push Your Luck. Small amounts (under 1.5 ounces) might just mean a slap on the wrist, but anything more could land you in hot water.
- Public Consumption? Not Cool, Catfish. Light up at home or in a private place that allows tobacco use. No sparking up at the park or the library (trust me, they won't be happy about it).
- Out-of-Staters Welcome (Kinda). Got your medical marijuana license from another state? Oklahoma might recognize it for a short while. But don't get too comfortable, these things change faster than a jackrabbit on a hot day.
