Medical Marijuana

Medical marijuana patients do not have to pay the 37% State Excise Tax, nor do they have to pay State Sales Tax for their medical cannabis products. This means medical cannabis patients save nearly 50% on their typical purchases.

Look for the products approved by the WA State Department of Health. These products carry a logo which means they met rigorous standards. Those products meet compliance standards to use according to a health practitioners recommended guidance. With products specifically designed for authorized medical patients, these products maintain the highest level of quality. The Department of Health in WA sets the specific assurances guiding production, packaging, and usages.

If a cannabis product contains one of these logos, then the WA State Department of Health tested it for full compliance. It is approved for medical cannabis users. ONLY products that contain these logos passed the strict requirements. Therefore, they meet the regulatory requirements enforced by the Department of Health in Washington.

For example, if a product displays a high CBD logo, then it generally carries a very small amount of THC in ratio to the CBD. However, ask your bud tender for more information if you have questions.

To earn a compliance logo, the product must pass testing protocols for use of pesticides, traces of heavy metals, insect infestation, and types of fertilizers used in production. Compliant products must also test for potency. So, high THC logo generally means the product contains a high dosage of concentrated THC.

For high THC products especially, users must stay mindful to avoid the risk of over-indulgence.
