Nelson Analytics became the first lab in Maine to apply for a certification to test adult-use marijuana in the state.
Three more labs are expected to apply for lab testing licenses before adult-use sales begin in March, according to the Portland Press Herald.
In addition to the lab application, according to the newspaper, the state has received 76 rec marijuana business license applications – 38 for retail stores, 27 for cultivation facilities and 11 for manufacturing operations.
