TRACKING MARIJUANA:

HOW TO AVOID “POT MILLS” IN FLORIDA’S NEWEST INDUSTRY

 

Palm Beach County, Fla. (July 17, 2014) – The passage of Florida’s SB 1030 (Compassionate Medical Cannabis Act of 2014) calls for the opening of five dispensaries for medical marijuana, located throughout the state. A passage of a ballot initiative in November, calling for increased usage of medical cannabis, could increase the number of needed dispensaries nearly tenfold.

A chief concern by some legislators is a lack of sufficient oversight by state officials which could lead to the possibility of ‘pot mills,’ fraud or abuse. This issue has been addressed in an article just posted on floridamarijuanainfo.org. The story details how Florida will be handling seed-to-sale monitoring of its new medical cannabis industry, and the methods behind the nation’s oldest and largest cannabis tracking company, BioTrackTHC.

“This is why FloridaMarijuanInfo.org exists,” said David Cohn, Publisher/Editor.  “We passionately believe it’s critical Floridians know everything they can about what is happening in our state regarding medical marijuana.”
