The end of this week will mark the next big step forward for Ohio’s recreational marijuana program.
On Friday, medical dispensaries can start applying for a license to sell weed to everyone.
It’s a milestone that matters a lot to experts whose job it is to turn marijuana plant material into things consumers increasingly want, including weed-infused gummies.
