Cannabis Safety Alert: Unapproved Pesticides Used on Products in Nevada



The Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board issued a warning to consumers, cautioning against the use of cannabis products treated with an unapproved pesticide. Referencing public health and safety concerns in their announcement, officials advised individuals to seek alternative options when making cannabis purchases within the state.


The Cannabis Control Board has uncovered a disturbing discovery involving Circle S Farms LLC products: they have used an unapproved pesticide, Ethephon, on certain batches of cannabis. Affected batches include...


Apple Fritter Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 AF 2 Batch Number 23102

Apple Fritter Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 AF Batch Number 23101

Doble OG Sour Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 DOGS Batch Number 23533

Kush Mints Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 KM Batch Number 23397

Kobe Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 KOBE Batch Number 23237

Zummy Bearz Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 ZB 3 Batch Number 23251

Zummy Bearz Lot Number: 23.02.13 5 ZB 4 Batch Number 23252


This isn't the first time CCB agents have found violations with the Florel brand using Ethephon at its cultivation facility.

The Cannabis Control Board (CCB) has determined that cannabis facilities and testing laboratories had no reason to suspect any use of an ethylene-based growth regulator called Ethephon on marijuana plants since it's not included in the list of pesticides examined for by these establishments.


The Cannabis Control Board (CCB) requires that all cannabis products have a product label on or with the packaging. This crucial information, found near the top of each label, includes details such as which cultivation facility produced it and batch/lot numbers. All marijuana users are encouraged to check labels thoroughly when making their purchases.


A recent recall of potentially affected batches finds that the products were sold between March 23 and April 21 by the retailers listed below. Consumers are advised to check if any purchases recently made from these locations may be subject to recall action.
