No Zip-Loc Bags Allowed: Proper Cannabis Storage in Sin City
However, even legal recreational marijuana in Las Vegas and Greater Nevada have enhanced access to cannabis, there are still a number of rules regarding proper storage of cannabis that any Las Vegan or visitor needs to be aware of.
Recreational marijuana do’s and don’ts in Nevada
While it is legal to both consume privately and possess cannabis on your person, walking down The Strip with your cannabis in a Zip-Loc baggie is technically illegal.
Granted, the chances of being randomly stopped by a police officer based on no present suspicious behavior or probable cause out of the millions of people in Las Vegas is rather slim, it’s still a wise decision to be knowledgeable of and follow the rules of proper cannabis storage in Las Vegas.
Is your cannabis stored in a childproof container?
As for edibles, they must abide by very similar rules. According to the cannabis laws in Las Vegas, Nevada Administrative Code 453A.500, “marijuana-infused products in solid or liquid form must be packaged in plastic which is 4 millimeters or more in thickness and must be heat-sealed without an easy-open tab, dimple, corner, or flap so that it is difficult for a child to open and as a tamper-proof measure.”
Stay savvy and keep cannabis away from kids
To keep the appeal of cannabis usage further away from children, no edible cannabis products may resemble any real or fictional characters, cartoons, caricatures or even animals. Furthermore, edible products can’t resemble or imitate any edible products that are commonly marketed towards children. Given that prevention of underage use of cannabis is a priority for the industry and regulators alike, these industry-wide laws are somewhat justified and certainly necessary.
