The Nevada Department of Taxation recently issued an advisory about marijuana that failed state testing. Officials believe the marijuana—in the form of pre-rolled joints and flower—was sold mostly at locations in southern Nevada between Oct. 5 and Dec. 27, though some was sold at Rise, a dispensary located in Carson City at 135 Clearview Drive.
In total, four batches of marijuana failed the testing: Island OG #2 failed yeast and mold testing, Lemon Meringue also failed yeast and mold testing, THC Bomb failed testing for the pathogenic fungus aspergillus flavus, and Zombie Kush failed testing for bile-tolerant gram-negative bacteria and total coliforms.
As of press time, there have been no reports of illnesses connected to the marijuana, but state regulators are advising people—especially those with suppressed immune systems—not to use the products.
