In Minnesota the alone case of being high on ANYTHING is not a crime. There are aggravating factors (penalty enhancers) in play that can however make it a crime.
For instance, you find it upon yourself to shoot up a syringe of heroin and shortly thereafter you relax on your porch after having properly disposing of the needle while ensuring there isn't a testable quantity of the narcotic left over. Say Officer Friendly stops by your porch just to say hi and he notices you're higher than a kite, you can openly and blatantly admit guilt of you having just shot up and being high. As long as you are not a danger to anyone else's civil rights, he will tell you to have a nice day.
In Minnesota, it is illegal to possess any contraband or controlled substances recognized by state statute as illegal. It is not illegal however to simply be high after consuming said controlled substances.
Aggravating factors include:
Driving under the influence of a controlled substance (including alcohol)
Consuming narcotics within proximity of a minor
consuming narcotics within a school zone
just to name a few.
Being high can also be an aggravating factor for other crimes such as assault, murder, etc.
Marijuana specifically has undergone a decriminalization of sorts in the past few years. Possession of a quantity less than 42.5G is a misdemeanor crime punishable by a $200 fine and/or a Drug informational class (used to be a $1000 fine and or 90 days in jail)
Any possession above 42.5G is considered a Felony and there are varying degrees depending on the quantity. Again there are aggravating factors on that scale as well.
The sale, manufacturing (growing), and trafficking of Marijuana (not trafficking if there is less than 42.5g in the trunk) is considered a felony at any quantity and again there are varying degrees based on how much you have in your possession.

Weed is not legal anywhere, by federal law.
Ofcourse its not legal. If smoking weed was legal, then people wouldn't be hiding it from police and higher authorities. If it was legal you would be able to grow it in your backyard or buy it from the shops. However, weed is illegal and it can kill you. And weed will never be legal!
If weed is meant to be marijuana, then the answer is no, it's not legal.
There is only one place that I could think of in which "weed" is legal and that is in Amsterdam.
I'm not sure it is legal in any! Amsterdam weed and hash is legal.
There is no such thing as legal weed. Medical weed is specially developed for medicinal purposes, the DNA structure of the weed is altered so it does not have the same effects as illegally bought weed.
No, it is not legal in Fla.
