A medical marijuana dispensary near Worcester could become the first recreational pot store in Massachusetts — but it’s likely weeks away from opening for non-medical sales.
The state Cannabis Control Commission announced Thursday it expects to vote next week on whether to issue a provisional license to Cultivate, a medical dispensary in Leicester that first opened last November.

If the agency approves the provisional license, Cultivate’s store will still need to pass final inspections before it can open its doors to adults who are not certified as medical marijuana patients, a process that could take several weeks.
