COLUMBUS – It’s possible medical marijuana will be sold in Ohio by the end of the year, but it won’t happen in November as previously estimated.
Ohio law requires all medical marijuana to be tested for potency and purity before it’s sold in dispensaries.
But none of the state’s five licensed testing labs are open.
The two testing labs closest to opening are tentatively scheduled for final inspections in mid-December, the Ohio Department of Commerce's Mark Hamlin told the Ohio Medical Marijuana Advisory Board on Thursday.
