No, growing cannabis at home is currently illegal in New Jersey. Under existing state laws, individuals are not permitted to cultivate weed or recreational cannabis plants at home, even for personal use. The New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (NJ-CRC) has not authorized any private or residential cannabis growing.

Only licensed businesses with a state-issued cannabis cultivation license are legally allowed to grow cannabis in New Jersey.

So while you can legally buy cannabis products like flower, vapes, edibles, and concentrates from a licensed dispensary like Ohm Theory, growing your own weed at home is not allowed—and doing so may lead to legal penalties.

For safe, legal access to premium New Jersey cannabis, visit Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary, where we offer a wide range of recreational cannabis products for adults 21 and older.

In New Jersey, adults 21 and older may legally use cannabis on private property, such as in your own home or in the home of someone who allows it. However, it’s important to note that property owners, landlords, and rental agreements can restrict or prohibit cannabis use, even on private premises.

Using weed, pot, or any recreational cannabis products in public spaces—such as parks, sidewalks, beaches, schools, or in vehicles—is strictly prohibited by state law. Violations may result in fines or other penalties.

At Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary, we encourage all of our customers to consume cannabis responsibly and legally. After purchasing your favorite strains, edibles, or vapes from ohmtheory.com/shop, be sure to enjoy them only in safe, approved locations, like your home or another private residence where cannabis use is allowed.

Public consumption is not permitted, even if cannabis was purchased legally.

While the terms “cannabis” and “marijuana” are often used interchangeably, New Jersey law makes an important legal distinction between the two.

Under Article IV, Section VII, Paragraph 12 of the New Jersey State Constitution, passed in the November 2020 election, the difference lies in how the plant is regulated:

  • Cannabis refers to the legal, regulated form of the plant. This includes the weed and pot products grown, processed, and sold by state-licensed dispensaries like Ohm Theory.

  • Marijuana refers to the unregulated or illicit version of the plant—cannabis that is grown, distributed, or sold outside of the legal market.

At Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary, we only carry legal cannabis that meets New Jersey’s strict regulatory standards for safety, potency, and labeling. When you shop at ohmtheory.com/shop, you’re purchasing from a trusted source of recreational cannabis, not from the unregulated black market.

Whether you’re shopping for premium flower, edibles, concentrates, or vapes, Ohm Theory is your go-to source for legal cannabis in New Jersey.

    • Hemp and cannabis both come from the same plant species—Cannabis sativa L. However, the key difference lies in the amount of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive compound responsible for making you feel “high.”

      • Hemp is legally defined as any part of the cannabis plant that contains 0.3% THC or less by dry weight. Because of its extremely low THC content, hemp does not produce psychoactive effects. Hemp is commonly used for CBD oils, textiles, supplements, and industrial applications.

      • Cannabis (also known as weed or marijuana) refers to plants and products with more than 0.3% THC. These higher-THC products can produce intoxicating effects and are available only through state-licensed dispensaries like Ohm Theory.

      The 2018 U.S. Farm Bill federally legalized hemp production, and in New Jersey, the Department of Agriculture oversees its regulation. Meanwhile, the sale and use of recreational cannabis is regulated by the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission.

      At Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary, we specialize in high-quality, lab-tested THC-rich cannabis products available for legal adult-use. Whether you’re shopping for potent flower, delicious edibles, or vape cartridges, you’ll find only legal, regulated cannabis on our shelves—not hemp.

CBD, short for cannabidiol, is a naturally occurring compound found in the cannabis plant, including both hemp and marijuana varieties. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning it does not cause a “high.”

CBD is widely used for its potential therapeutic and wellness benefits, which may include relief from anxiety, inflammation, pain, and sleep disorders. It is most commonly extracted from hemp plants, which legally contain less than 0.3% THC, and can be consumed in various forms including:

  • Oils and tinctures

  • Capsules and edibles

  • Topicals like lotions and balms

  • CBD-rich flower

At Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary in New Jersey, we offer a variety of CBD products derived from both hemp and THC-rich cannabis, designed for both recreational use and holistic wellness. Whether you’re looking for a non-intoxicating option or exploring full-spectrum cannabis products, our expert staff can help guide your experience.

Yes — but it depends on how the CBD product is marketed, labeled, and intended to be used. Under the federal 2018 Farm Bill, CBD derived from hemp (containing no more than 0.3% THC) is no longer considered a controlled substance, but it is still regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The FDA oversees how CBD products are sold, especially those intended for therapeutic, dietary, or cosmetic purposes. This means that:

  • Sellers must follow FDA regulations under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

  • The legality of selling CBD may depend on how the product is labeled, its intended use, and formulation

  • Mislabeling or making unapproved medical claims can result in enforcement actions

While you may not need a state license just to sell hemp-derived CBD, retailers should check local and state regulations, including those in New Jersey, to ensure compliance.

At Ohm Theory Cannabis Dispensary, all of our CBD and cannabis products meet rigorous state and federal guidelines. Whether you’re shopping for full-spectrum CBD oil, CBD gummies, or hemp-derived topicals, you can trust Ohm Theory to provide safe, lab-tested, and legally compliant options for adult consumers.
