Once you mail your application you can use your proof of mailing, doctor's rec, application, and ID to purchase at a dispensary for up to 35 days. After 35 days have elapsed you can no longer go to a dispensary until your actual red card arrives from CDPHE.

This directive from the Department of Revenue to Dispensaries is in conflict with the Colorado Constitution which states that you are deemed approved after 35 days of waiting and not receiving a red card.

Most MMJ specific doctors clinics will write a rec without documented medical history if you have chronic pain.
