Weed Recall Sparks Urgent Warning For California

Over the past several months, there have been weed recalls in several different
states, with warnings issued to marijuana consumers ahead of the unofficial 4/20
holiday.

April 20 is the day in the calendar that stoners look forward to every year as
the main celebration of cannabis culture. The day is typically marked by large
crowds gathering to imbibe marijuana in public and celebrities raising a joint
to mark the occasion.



4/20 has continued to become more popular in recent years as more and more
states have moved to legalize cannabis on a recreational level. As of April
2024, there are 24 U.S. states that have legalized cannabis for recreational
use, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Minnesota,
Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Ohio, Rhode Island,
Vermont, Virginia and Washington. The District of Columbia has also legalized
recreational marijuana.

Newsweek has compiled a map of the weed recalls issued in 2024 so far, showing
each state where warnings were issued.


This map created by Newsweek shows which U.S. states have been affected by
recent marijuana recalls, where warnings were issued to not use certain
products. This map created by Newsweek shows which U.S. states have been

On April 9, the California Department of Cannabis Control announced a recall for
a product from boxer Mike Tyson's weed brand, Tyson 3.5 Gram Flower products.
The recall was issued "due to the presence of Aspergillus sp.," which is a
fungus that can grow on cannabis plants.

The recall was for two different strains of Tyson cannabis flower named "TOAD"
and "TADPOLES." The products were sold in 3.5-gram packages and were packaged
after August 4, 2023.

The recall announcement said that the products were sold at various locations
across California, including Alameda, Contra Costa, Humboldt, Los Angeles, Napa,
Riverside, Sacramento, San Diego, and San Francisco.

Newsweek previously reached out to the California Department of Cannabis Control
via email for comment.

NEW MEXICO:

On March 22, the Cannabis Control Division (CCD) of the New Mexico Regulation
and Licensing Department announced a recall for several cannabis concentrate
products sold at the Got Greens dispensary, following the discovery that they
were contaminated with a pesticide.

"The concentrates were sold under the names Purple Kush Live Sugar, Cali Dream
Live Sugar, Jigglers Live Diamonds, and OG Kush Shatter. The recall also affects
the cannabis manufacturer, Pharmers, who has been instructed to destroy all
remaining involved concentrates without selling to any additional retailer," the
announcement said, noting that the products were sold between January 31, 2023,
and February 15, 2024.

Newsweek reached out to a spokesperson for the agency via email for comment.


COLORADO:

In February, the Colorado Department of Revenue Marijuana Enforcement Division
issued two different recalls for marijuana products.



On February 15, the agency issued a health and safety advisory "due to the
identification of potentially contaminated Medical and Retail Marijuana Flower
(bud/shake/trim) produced by Melody and Company Management LLC."

The announcement said that the advisory includes Harvest Batches sold by the
company that were found to "have exceeded acceptable limits established for
Total Yeast and Mold and Aspergillus." The recalled products were sold between
April 28, 2023, and December 7, 2023.

On February 21, the agency issued a similar health and safety advisory for
certain products sold by Range Street, LLC d.b.a. Qualis Cultivation. The recall
was issued after products sold by the company were found to be contaminated with
Aspergillus. The affected products were sold between January 7, 2023, and
January 4, 2024, the announcement said.

Newsweek reached out to the Colorado agency via email for comment.




OHIO:

In January, the Ohio Department of Agriculture announced a recall for dozens of
products sold by Rocket Systems Inc., including CBD gummies, CBD tinctures, and
other cosmetic products.

"The products were produced without the benefit of inspection from the Ohio
Department of Agriculture," a press release previously obtained by Newsweek
said. "The issue was discovered during a routine inspection conducted by the
Ohio Department of Agriculture. There have been no reports of illness involving
products addressed in this recall."

Newsweek reached out to the Ohio Division of Cannabis Control via email for
comment.
