The dispensary, Kush Club 20, was selling cannabis sprayed with paclobutrazol, a fungicide frequently used on golf turf that is classified as a Type II toxic chemical by the EPA.
Los Angeles City Atty. Mike Feuer has filed a lawsuit against an unlicensed pot dispensary in South L.A. that was allegedly selling marijuana that had been sprayed with a pesticide used in golf turf management.
The dispensary, Kush Club 20, was selling cannabis sprayed with paclobutrazol, a fungicide frequently used on golf turf that is classified as a Type II toxic chemical by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the lawsuit filed Monday by the Los Angeles city attorney’s office said.“Illegal cannabis businesses can pose serious threats to the public’s health and safety,” City Atty. Mike Feuer said in a statement.
Only 181 dispensaries have temporary city approval to sell marijuana in Los Angeles, according to the Department of Cannabis Regulation. But hundreds of illegal dispensaries have popped up across the city as an attractive option for those looking to buy marijuana while skirting the state’s 15% tax on legal marijuana sales. Regulators, however, have warned that those shops might traffic in unsafe wares or counterfeit versions of popular marijuana brands and cultivators.
