The charge for marijuana or cannabis products is different than the rest of the Schedule I drugs. Possession or cultivation of less than 30 grams of marijuana or possession of less than two grams of either hash oil or hashish is a Class A misdemeanor. If the amount in possession is more than the above mentioned quantities or if the person has a prior conviction for a similar charge, the charge is then a Class D felony.

Possession of paraphernalia is also illegal. In Indiana, any person who possesses the raw material, instrument, device, or other object intended for the purpose of introducing a controlled substance into the body commits a Class A infraction. That includes devices for enhancing the effects or testing the strength, effectiveness, or purity of a controlled substance.
