Recreational marijuana sales will begin across Ohio on Tuesday when the state issues its first operating certificates.

Nearly 100 medical marijuana dispensaries will be able to begin sales immediately, although it’s not clear how many will be ready to open, the Division of Cannabis Control said Monday.

Many will be ready right away while others could be delayed by staffing or inventory issues.

The first round of operation certificates will go to 98 locations, according to the Division of Cannabis Control.

      The OCM is already accepting license applications, and should have open stores some time next year. Either way, prices will be much higher than what you can get from Michigan or the res for a while.

        Been legal in Illinois for a long time

        Dispensaries are still outrageous compared to street prices

          That’s not really a long term concern with the mn bill, there’s a lot of provisions in there with the intent of undercutting street prices. Imo the MN bill is one of the best in the country, but if the res prices are anything to go on, the prices will definitely be insane for a while. Right now, the cheapest you can buy from a res is about $400 for an ounce
