“Much of what’s being sold as hemp today isn’t hemp at all – it’s a cocktail of synthetic intoxicants and illegal THC masquerading as a natural, legal product,” said Tiffany Devitt, director of regulatory affairs at Groundwork Holdings, which partnered with other license holders to organize and run the study.
Groundwork is the parent company of Northern California marijuana manufacturer and cultivator CannaCraft and Southern California retail chain March and Ash.
The study also was supported by Sacramento-based cannabis retailer Embarc and United Food and Commercial Workers Local 135, which represents more than 13,000 unionized employees in San Diego and Imperial counties.
Products were tested by San Diego-based Infinite Chemical Analysis Labs.
Infinite Labs founder Josh Swider has gained widespread recognition in the industry since his lab has been at the forefront of exposing an ongoing pesticide scandal that has rocked California’s regulated marijuana market.
