Recreational marijuana is now legal in Maine. Hereâs what you need to know. You have to be 21 or older to possess up to 2.5 ounces, you can't use pot in public and you can't buy it â but you can grow your own. Itâs marijuana Monday in Maine. Today, Maine joins seven other states and the District of Columbia that have legalized marijuana for recreational use, despite federal prohibitions on the drug.
Maine has a relatively high rate of marijuana use, with an estimated 16.24% of residents 12 and older having smoked pot at least once in 2012, the seventh highest rate in the county. In 2013, Portland, the state's most populous city, voted to legalize possession of small amounts of the drug for adults.
