This is illegal.

So in this is a this is important context because in Maine in 2020 we in 2016 Maine voted in a referendum to legalize adult use recreational marijuana.

It took until 2020 for the lawmakers to roll out the legal framework for both our adult use recreational program and our medicinal program.

The adult use recreational program is highly regulated and there's seed to sale tracking.

Everybody who's going to come in contact with your plants has to have a license as a sub-permittee.

But at every single Chinese marijuana grow, they are in some cases 100, 500, 1,000 times whatever the plant limits are.

They vary from double wide trailers to, I've seen, there's one that they tried to convert into a marijuana grow that was an old factory in Lewiston that was, I think, 350,000 square feet.

If they'd finished it, it would have been the largest indoor marijuana grow in North America.

The Shawn Ryan Show
