"The DEA is providing notice of pending applications from entities applying to be registered to manufacture cannabis for researchers."
With the University of Mississippi being the only producer of government sanctioned cannabis for research this is big news for researchers large and small. Apparently the flower being produced is not even that good.
"Several prominent researchers in the cannabis field—such as Dr. Sue Sisley of the Scottsdale Research Institute (SRI)—have been very vocal about the poor quality of cannabis coming from the University of Mississippi."
Cannabis also has a broad spectrum of strains and potency. One strain does not fit all studies. One type of patient may need a much lower potency than another. This is especially important when a patient smokes flower.
