Due to rapidly changing cannabis laws in Iowa, it can be difficult to keep up with the state of medical marijuana in Iowa. Lucas Nelson, Group President of Bud & Mary's, an Iowa-based cannabis company, explains everything you need to know and how to get your own medical marijuana card.
Many aren't aware the previous THC cap on medical products was removed in 2020. This means physicians can determine the strength of cannabis for their patients, not government officials. The smokeable "flower" or "bud" still can't be sold in the state of Iowa, but Nelson said they are working on legalization for that form.
Bud & Mary's is growing the same strains you would find in Colorado, Michigan, and other states. In fact, Bud & Mary's is the creator of the #1-selling vape brand in Colorado. Currently, the company produces vape and sugar wax products to be inhaled, oil and tablets to be consumed orally, and cream you can apply topically. These forms have various levels of THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (Cannabidiol) without THC.
Currently, marijuana or cannabis isn't legal for recreational use in the state of Iowa, only for medical purposes with physician approval. If you are interested in getting a medical marijuana card in Iowa, we've outlined the full step-by-step process and educational links on the show notes page.
