Thus leading to the authorization of pot for a certain amount of time.

The once impossible task was put into force by changing the definition of marijuana and excluding hemp from it.

He said that they won’t be able to distinguish the difference between hemp and marijuana. So each matter regarding the issue will have to be transferred to crime labs. However, the big trouble lies here! Most of the crime labs in Ohio cannot detect the quantity difference of THC. So now what to do?
