It’s been a long year for Maryland trying to get its medical marijuana program growing. It’s been nearly a year since the state’s panel chose 15 growers and 15 processors from a large list of applicants.
It was back in May that Maryland’s commission gave final approval to the state’s first legal grower, ForwardGro. The remaining companies that have been pre-approved have until August 28th to obtain a license.
This week the state’s regulators authorized eight companies to grow the plant and four businesses to process it into medicine.
