Marijuana use in New Hampshire
Marijuana is still the most frequently abused drug in New Hampshire, in part, because the use of marijuana carries no stigma in many communities. In fact, abuse is frequent, even among elementary school age youth. Cannabis is also the most readily available illegal substance in the state. Indoor and outdoor productions are prevalent. In addition, Mexican DTOs transport cannabis into New Hampshire from Mexico by using express mail services and private vehicles. These groups also are expanding their wholesale distribution networks into the state. Loosely organized Caucasian criminal groups usually distribute Mexican cannabis at the retail level. Marijuana cultivated within New Hampshire is usually produced and distributed by users who sell the drug to friends and associates.
Marijuana and hashish ranked first in admissions for publicly funded treatment as the principal drug of choice in 1997 and in 1998, according to TEDS information.
Marijuana is easily available throughout New Hampshire. Cannabis is the predominant substance of abuse in the state. For the past several years, almost all foreign origin marijuana encountered in New Hampshire came from Mexico with local Caucasian violators traveling weekly or bi-monthly to Arizona and Southern California to obtain 200-300 pound amounts of the drug. The cannabis is generally transported into the state via land vehicle. Marijuana is also being shipped in relatively small amounts (20-50 lb. packages) into the state utilizing U. S. and other mail services. Domestically cultivated marijuana is also available in New Hampshire, though not as easily in recent years. Because of the rural nature of the state, especially the northern two thirds, the potential growing regions are limitless and most of the outdoor growers have reduced the size of their plots and increased the variety and scope of their concealment efforts. THC content in excess of 22% has been seen in New Hampshire. High potency Canadian grown marijuana is easily available in the state. This high potency Canadian-grown cannabis THC content can range from 15 percent to as much as 25 percent.
