Using pot to be legal in Oregon — but not selling it
It will be legal for Oregon residents to own up to eight ounces of marijuana; however, they won’t have a legal way to buy it

Pot stashes in Oregon are legal — up to 8 ounces. So is the homegrown, up to four plants a household. The legalization of recreational marijuana July 1 makes the state the fourth to do so, following Colorado, Washington and Alaska. Washington, D.C., also allows possession of personal amounts, though not sales. The Oregon Liquor Control Commission is writing rules for growing and selling legal pot and planning to accept applications from prospective farmers January 1, 2016. Retail sales could start about harvest time next fall. See also: Oregon becomes fourth US state to legalize recreational marijuana)
