2 Dozen Florida Nurseries Vying For Coveted Cannabis Growing Licenses

Submitted by Marijuana News on Wed, 07/29/2015 - 06:25

Out of the nearly 100 plant nurseries eligible to produce “Charlotte’s Web,” a low-THC, non-euphoric medical strain of marijuana, 24 are competing for one of only five available growing licenses.

According to Mara Burger, press secretary of the Florida Department of Health, 28 applications in total were received during the three-week open enrollment period. Several of the nurseries applied for licenses in more than one of the five designated regions (Northwest, Northeast, Central, Southwest, and Southeast).

Homestead-based Almond Tree Nursery applied for licenses in the Southeast as well as the Northeast Region. Alpha Foliage, also out of Homestead, applied in the Northwest and Southwest Regions. Redland Nursery, based in (you guess it) Homestead, has applications out for the Central and Southeast Regions. And finally, Hart’s Plant Nursery out of Jacksonville applied for a license in the Northeast and Northwest Regions.
