What is a Medical 420 Card?
In simple words, a medical 420 card is a license to access medical marijuana legally. Currently, the herb is illegal at the federal level, and to use marijuana for any medicinal purposes, you need a medical 420 card from a licensed doctor.
Only a person with a medical 420 card could access the herb legally and for medicinal purposes. The concept of recommendations started with California but slowly many other states followed suit and legalized marijuana for people who possessed a medical 420 card or a doctor’s recommendation.
Today, many states have legalized the herb for recreational purposes too, including California. However, many still have a stern stand and allow it only as a medicine. In these states, you must have a 420 card to use the herb legally. In recreational states, this card isn’t a compulsion, yet one can apply for it and enjoy the many benefits associated with it.
Why do You Need a Medical 420 Card in California?
Having a medical 420 card in California might favor you. The card gives you access to high-quality marijuana with better prices and possession limit- at a much lower age and other benefits as stated:
Lower Price
In California, the prices of marijuana vary for medicinal and recreational users. Those who possess a medical 420 card are exempted from various taxes and fees that recreational users have to pay. Also, dispensaries run several discount offers from time to time, especially for medical users which can save you an average of 25 to 25 percent.
More and High-Quality Products
A medical 420 card gives access to a very high-quality section of marijuana, specially reserved for medicinal users. This includes higher potency strains and other products that are not available to recreational users in the state.
Higher Possession Limits
A recreational user can possess only up to an ounce or 28.5 grams of marijuana at any given moment. On the other hand, being a medicinal user, one can possess up to 8 ounces. The daily purchase limit is also the same in California.
Higher Growing Limits
A medical user can grow marijuana for personal use at a much larger scale as compared to a recreational user. By getting a grower’s license, one can grow the herb in an area of up to 100 square feet.
Lower Age Limits
To use marijuana legally in California, a recreational user must be at least 21 years old, but one can apply for a medical 420 card as soon as they turn 18. Once you have this card, you may use the herb without any legal restrictions.
Easy Travels
If you travel frequently, having a medical 420 card with you can be beneficial as it gives you the leverage of traveling with the herb despite it being a federal offence. Additionally, you need to take proper measures for traveling while in possession of marijuana.
Who Can Write a Medical 420 Recommendation in California?
Finding a person who can write a medical 420 recommendation in California isn’t difficult. As a medical user, you can visit any licensed healthcare provider and ask for it. Unlike other states, there is no special registration required in California to become a marijuana doctor.
However, you must make sure the doctor you are visiting is legit. Also, not every healthcare provider is pro-cannabis. Hence, thorough research is important before deciding on your doctor.

What Are The Qualifying Conditions to Get a California Medical 420 Card?
In order to get a medical 420 card, you need to have a qualifying medical condition. The card is only for people who are suffering from a medical ailment. With that being said, if you do not have a qualifying condition, the doctor won’t approve your application.
The qualifying conditions to get a California medical 420 card include:
- Cachexia
- Anorexia
- Persistent Muscle Spasms
- Severe Nausea
- Glaucoma
- Arthritis
- Chronic Pain
- Migraine
- AIDS
- Cancer
- Seizures
- Conditions that may hinder a person’s ability to conduct any important life functions (as per the ADA (Americans with Disability Act) of 1990).
Contact us if you suffer from any of the above conditions. Our doctors will help you get legal access to marijuana and plan the best treatment for your ailment.
Anyone above the age of 21 can possess a maximum of an ounce or 28.5 grams of marijuana flower. For concentrates, this limit is 8 grams. Additionally, one can grow up to 6 marijuana plants at their property.
For a patient with a medical 420 card, the possession limit of marijuana goes up to 8 ounces, i.e. 8 times more than a recreational user.
As per the Adult Use of Marijuana Act of 2016, any recreational user of age 21 or above with a valid proof of age is allowed to purchase 28.5 gram or less of dried marijuana flower and a maximum of 8 grams of concentrated herb per day. For medicinal users, this limit goes up to 8 ounces of marijuana daily.
When it comes to consuming marijuana, you must note, you cannot do it just anywhere. The laws regarding the consumption of the herb in California are quite stringent and cannot be circumvented..
As per the marijuana consumption rules in California, you must NOT consume the herb in:
- Any public area
- A place where smoking is prohibited
- Near (within 1000 feet of) a school, daycare, or youth center (If you live near any such place, you may consume it if it is undetectable.)
- A federally controlled place
Some of the places where you can consume marijuana without restrictions include:
- Private residence
- Any structure or building within the boundaries of private property, as long as it is secure from general public sight
- Open areas within private properties where smoking is allowed
Marijuana laws in California have deemed driving under the influence of the herb illegal. If caught, penalties may range from probation to fines and even jail time. Also, like drunk driving, the level of punishment rises with each subsequent conviction.
Any lawful marijuana user can transport their bud from one place to another if it is within stipulated limits. But while transporting the herb, one must keep it in a closed child-proof container. Also, it should not be within the reach of the driver. Transporting open marijuana, on the other hand, is ILLEGAL. The rules are the same for all passengers. Moreover, one cannot smoke inside the vehicle.
Crossing state borders with marijuana is also illegal. State borders, you must be aware of, are controlled by the federal government. And marijuana is a Schedule I drug at the federal level. Hence, if caught, you may land in serious legal trouble. A medical 420 card may be of some help. However, given the status of the herb at the federal level, you’ll be at the mercy of the officer in charge.

While applying for a medical 420 card, it’s very important to look for a legit doctor. California was the first state of the US to legalize medical marijuana. Yet, there are many instances of fake recommendations surfacing every now and then. These scams have even risen in number with the advent of telemedicine. Also, when you are applying for a 420 card, there’s a lot that depends on your doctor. Your doctor is the one who is going to decide if you’ll get a recommendation or not. And not every doctor is pro-marijuana. Having said that, for your 420 application, it’s important to go to a doctor with a good reputation in the marijuana world.
Here’s how to find a good doctor to get a medical 420 card:
- Look for their online reviews and work history.

- Call the doctor and make sure you are talking to a real person before revealing your details.
- Make sure they have a proper address and not just a P.O. box.

Yes, a minor can get a medical 420 card in California if they have a qualifying medical condition. However, for a minor to use the herb legally, they must have a primary caregiver (usually a parent or guardian) to help them with their marijuana needs.
Who is a Primary Caregiver?
A primary caregiver is a person designated to help a minor marijuana patient with all their marijuana needs. The job is usually given to a parent or guardian, but not always. The person, though, should always be above the age of 18 as per the laws in California. In some states, this age is set at 21 years. A primary caregiver is a person responsible for buying marijuana on the behalf of the minor patient as well as giving them the right dose from time to time.
You must note,that a person who himself is using medical marijuana cannot be a primary caregiver for someone else. Also, a physician of the patient cannot be their primary caregiver.
To become a primary caregiver one does not have to qualify for anything specific. A medical marijuana user just needs to request for a person to be their caregiver. If the person fulfills the legal criteria, they can be a primary caregiver to the patient. A primary caregiver also doesn’t necessarily need a card of their own. However, they may get it from the California Department of Public Health if they want. A state-issued ID certifies that you can buy and possess legal amounts of marijuana on the behalf of a patient. Otherwise, a simple doctor’s recommendation will also work in most cases.
If you are planning on traveling to California, for it being a medical marijuana state, note that a tourist can get a medical 420 card in California as long a s you have a proof of residency (US citizen) and a proof to determine that you are 21 years or older.
While the California laws ask for a resident proof for a medical marijuana card, however, since California has one of the most flexible medical marijuana programs in the US, if you are a non-resident, you can use marijuana recreationally or get a card. In both cases, you must have a valid ID proof and stay within the constraints of legalities in the state.
Yes, you can grow marijuana with a medical 420 card. Marijuana laws in California, in fact, allows any adult marijuana user to grow up to six marijuana plants for personal consumption. A medical user, however, may grow up to 99 after getting a grower’s license.
As a medicinal user, you might be thinking of growing marijuana at your own home. Considering the benefits associated with marijuana, our doctors surely promote this. However, you must abide by the rules. Proposition 64 in California states that one may legally grow marijuana if they are:
- Above the age of 21
- Growing not more than six plants
A medical marijuana user or their caregivers may also grow the herb legally if it’s within the legal limits (up to 6 mature or 12 immature plants). You may grow more if you have a grower’s license, which you can easily get from us. A grower’s license gives you the right to grow marijuana in an area of up to 100 sq. feet.
You must note, though, that growing marijuana should be for personal use only and not for selling or distribution. Possessing marijuana with even the intent of selling without a license is considered a crime and may lead to a fine of up to $500 or six months of jail time if caught for the first time. Subsequent cases may result in felony charges, and the punishment can be more severe.
