As of 2025, recreational cannabis (weed) is not legal in the U.S. state of Georgia. Georgia has a very limited medical cannabis program that permits low- THC oil (up to 5% THC), but it does not allow the use of raw or inhaled cannabis, and the program is quite restrictive in qualifying conditions. Efforts to expand the program to allow higher THC levels (up to 50%) and broaden qualifying conditions are underway, but have not been fully enacted yet. The Georgia General Assembly adjourned in April 2025 with expansion bills partly passed in the Senate but not yet approved by the House. These bills may carry over to the 2026 session. Public opinion in Georgia is increasingly in favor of legalization, with a majority supporting marijuana legalization, but actual legal recreational use remains prohibited. Possession of even small amounts of cannabis carries the risk of imprisonment. In summary:

• Medical cannabis with low THC oil is legal but very limited.
• Recreational cannabis remains illegal.
• Legislative efforts to expand medical cannabis are in progress but not finalized.
• Full recreational legalization has not been passed or scheduled in the immediate future.

Hence, based on current law and legislative activity up to mid-2025, there is no set date for when recreational weed will be legal in Georgia.

Note: There is a different country named Georgia where cannabis is legal, but that is unrelated to the U.S. state of Georgia.
