Protecting consumers from unhealthy products is key for cannabis growth worldwide Several years after Washington’s legislature first discussed these requirements, the state has finally approved compulsory pesticide testing for all cannabis products produced and sold in the state. Cannabis manufacturers have a duty to meet the demands of cannabis users in a state. For-profit reasons, some of these operators have settled for harmful chemicals to increase the output of their crops. These chemicals include insecticides, pesticides, and inorganic fertilizers. Many of them are unfit for human consumption. Since the first month of cannabis legalization in Washington, users have found it quite challenging to know the components of the cannabis products sold to them. A lot could go wrong, from cultivation to the final packaging of cannabis products. And these companies, cultivation facilities, and producers rarely come out to explain what goes on behind the scenes. The Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board (LCB) proposed third-party tests to help cannabis users know if the products to be ingested are safe. Pesticide Testing In legal countries and states, cannabis products undergo several third-party tests to ascertain that they’re fit for consumption.
