Mississippi cannabis grower ordered to destroy $1 million worth of plants
A total of 5,000 plants, which state authorities believed were worth nearly $1 million, were ordered to be destroyed by the largest certified medical cannabis farmer in Mississippi.
According to Mississippi Today, the state health authorities also mandated that Mockingbird Cannabis suspend some activities and make structural changes.
The company allegedly violated state-mandated cultivation and security regulations, which prompted officials to write Mockingbird a letter outlining correction measures, according to an earlier article by the nonprofit news site.
