What does 'usable marijuana' refer to?

'Usable marijuana' specifically refers to the dried leaves and flowers of the marijuana plant that can be consumed by users. This designation covers the parts of the plant that are typically smoked, vaporized, or utilized in the preparation of edibles. This definition helps clarify what is legally permissible for consumers and dispensaries under state cannabis laws.

While other options address forms or processes related to marijuana, they do not capture the essence of what 'usable marijuana' is in a regulatory context. Processes like turning marijuana into oils or requiring quality assurance testing apply to various cannabis products but do not pertain specifically to the term 'usable marijuana' as defined in OLCC regulations. Understanding this distinction is crucial for compliance within the industry and ensures that workers and consumers have a clear understanding of what products are classified as usable marijuana.
