Ohio’s legal marijuana market continues to grow at a steady pace, with new data showing the state has now surpassed $849 million in total marijuana sales since the launch of adult-use sales in August.
According to the Division of Cannabis Control, from August 7 through June 14, Ohio retailers brought in $849,695,302 in marijuana sales. This includes $587,448,062 from the adult-use market and $262,247,240 from medical marijuana sales.
In that time, consumers have completed a combined 10,948,491 marijuana transactions. That includes 8,143,830 adult-use purchases and 2,804,661 from registered medical marijuana patients.
The average price of marijuana flower in Ohio has dropped significantly since adult-use sales began, now sitting at $6.70 per gram as of June 14, down from $9.40 in August.
The market’s continued growth comes just days after new rules took effect that limit daily marijuana purchases for adult-use consumers. Under the new guidelines, individuals 21 and older can buy up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis flower per day, along with up to 15,000 milligrams of THC in manufactured products like vapes and edibles.
