cannabis as a safe and effective alternative.

With “Medicinal” in your company name, I gather that this is your prime focus, the medicinal side of cannabis. Further to that, you have The Starseed SystemTM. Is this the case? Can you elaborate on the company’s core focus and explain a little bit about The Starseed SystemTM?

The Starseed System simplifies the dialogue around strength and dosage by categorizing medical cannabis according to THC and CBD levels. The system was uniquely designed to simplify the prescription process for health care practitioners and for ease of use and dosing adjustments for patients. With The Starseed System, you are able to eliminate the confusion around strains and dosage.

We’ve heard of supply shortages lately all over social media and the news … so I hopped onto your website to see what you still have available for medical patients. I’ve been to a few with not much available and was quite honestly shocked. So I am happy and relieved to see that Starseed still has a great selection of oils and dry cannabis available for their medical patients. How has Starseed faired in managing their inventory so as to not alienate their medical patients?

Since our inception, we have been a patient-centric medical cannabis company. We understand the importance of these products for our patient’s medical needs. Despite the fact the adult-use market is now open, Starseed has maintained stock items on all of our oil and flower products [at time of interview]. Our commitment to and prioritization of our patients is unchanging, regardless of what has happened or what will happen in the adult-use market.

Recently, one recreational brand had to recall its cannabis from the virtual shelves at OCS. That’s a scary proposition, especially since first impressions go a long way in determining consumer spending habits in the future. We’ve visited LP’s that have chosen to configure its facility in one large grow room, and others, with several separate grow rooms. Can you explain which you’ve chosen and the reasoning for choosing one method over the other?
