DENVER – Marijuana products delivered to 176 stores in Colorado were recalled for allegedly containing pesticide residue.

Gaia's Gardens, a Denver-based marijuana-infused manufacturing facility, voluntarily recalled potentially unsafe marijuana edibles. According to Denver's Department of Environmental Health, samples of marijuana candy from Gaia's Gardens contained three pesticides that cannot legally be used to grow marijuana in Colorado.

According to the City and County of Denver, the health impact of consuming the pesticides is unknown. They say there are potential short-term and long-term health impacts. So far, there have been no reports of illness.

The Department of Environmental Health asks anyone with recalled products to throw them away or return them.
