Understanding New Jersey Cannabis Laws
Legal Age and ID Requirements
To legally purchase cannabis in New Jersey, you need to have a valid government-issued photo ID. This requirement will apply whether you’re purchasing recreational or medical cannabis. This is a basic requirement across all states where cannabis is sold.
Recreational vs. Medical Use
The use of recreational cannabis is legal across New Jersey. However, patients may need to pass a few requirements to increase their possession limits and tax exemptions, as stated under the New Jersey Medicinal Cannabis Program (NJCMP).
Local Restrictions in Rockaway
While cannabis is legal in New Jersey, you need to keep in mind that each town can still implement its own set of rules. Right now, retail cannabis isn’t allowed. What this means is that there aren’t any dispensaries that can operate within the township. For many, going to towns like Netcong is the next best option.

Cannabis Education for Rockaway Residents
Safe Consumption Tips
It’s best to regulate cannabis consumption so that you don’t get overwhelmed by its effects and so you can better control the dosage. If there’s a recommended dosage on the packaging or on your prescription, then stick to that.
For first-timers, it’s best to try low-THC products first. Another good option would be to buy those that have equal amounts of THC and CBD. Some products aren’t fit for first-timers as the psychoactive effects could overwhelm them.
For storage, make sure to keep it away from children or pets. Keep any cannabis products in a dark and cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Legal Possession Limits
There are certain possession limits to consider if you’re in New Jersey. Adults 21+ may legally have:
- Up to 1 ounce of usable cannabis (flower)
- Or equivalent in concentrates or edibles
The only exemption to the possession limits is medical patients under the NJMCP. Going beyond the limit.
