HOLYOKE -- Massachusetts remains on schedule to offer legal recreational marijuana stores on July 1, the head of the state's Cannabis Control Commission said Monday.
But growers are going to need their licenses much sooner than that or there won't be any legal product on the shelves when those pot shops open, said David Caputo, of Positronic Farms in Holyoke.
At a public hearing on state recreational marijuana regulations the commission hosted at Holyoke Community College, Caputo asked for the application date for license to grow to be moved up to March instead of April 1.
