Do I need to have a license to make THC or CBD marijuana concentrate products for my friends?

In most areas with legal medical or adult-use cannabis programs, patients (and/or consumers) are legally allowed to make marijuana products for personal use without a license. In many areas, citizens are allowed to give away a limited number of marijuana-infused products to other people, as long as no money is exchanged.

However, laws around homemade cannabis concentrates are usually much stricter. The more dangerous extraction processes, like butane extraction, are illegal in many areas. For the specific laws in your area, sign up for one of CTU’s marijuana training courses. ALL of CTU’s cannabis certificate programs provide detailed marijuana laws in all US states and Canadian provinces.

If I want to sell my THC or CBD weed concentrates, do I need a license?

Yes! It is fun to learn how to make cannabis concentrates at home and how to make cannabis edibles at home. But you will need a marijuana business license to sell your marijuana extracts or weed edibles.
