Although rules may be a foreign concept to a once illicit market, history has proven that regulations in agriculture, food production, and pharmaceuticals are critical for consumer safety, and the same is true for cannabis and hemp.
Testing requirements and regulations are continuing to pinch many California cannabis producers. Emerald Test and Labvantage are two companies stepping up to help the industry get testing standards under control.
Summertime in Colorado is known for a vast selection of experiences for the everyday tourist, locals, and someone like myself, a weekend warrior. There are so many things happening at any given moment in our state to indulge in. However, for some of us, summertime in Colorado also represents regulation implementation dates.

The cannabis industry moves fast. Licensed business owners and their employees are expected to move even faster when it comes to keeping up with myriad burdensome compliance requirements.

We can also expect such agencies to request reviews of these items when necessary and at their whim.
