Qualified patients in Florida considered, "terminally" ill may obtain full strength marijuana.  Low

THC strain marijuana, a non euphoric form, is also legal for qualified patients, which has proven

helpful with seizures, & related medical conditions. 

Special, state authorized, physicians may prescribe both cases, full strength marijuana for the terminally ill,  & low THC strain, non euphoric marijuana, however current, Florida law prohibits smoking cannabis for any reason, so cannabis products at this time are limited to oils, balms, 

tinctures.

Trulieve is the first Cannabis company,  of six companies Florida has authorized to cultivate, process, & dispense, cannabis & is Located in North Florida, Gadsen County.  

The other five companies are;
 #1. Chestnut Hill Tree Farm, Alachua County,  #2. Grandiflora , Alachua County, (San Felasco Nurseries),   #3. Surterra Therapeutics, (Alpha Foliage Nurseries, Inc.), Hillsborough, County  #4.   Modern Health Concepts, (Costo Nursery Farms)  Miami, Dade County  #5. Knox Nursery, Orange County.
Hackney Nursery (Trulieve) , received notice Wednesday it must begin dispensing to qualified patients within 210 days.

Even though #cannabis will be legal the number of patients eligible remains very limited , and is a good reason to get out, & #vote #YesOn2 for #medicalmarijuana , & to encourage other #voters .
