Cannabis Sterilization for Compliance:

Why It Matters

In Mississippi’s regulated medical cannabis market, all flower must pass mandatory microbial testing—including yeast, mold, and total coliform counts—before it can legally be sold. Even when cultivators follow best practices, cannabis can still fail testing due to naturally occurring microbes introduced during:

• Harvest and trimming

• Drying and curing

• Storage in humid environments

• Handling by staff

These microbes don’t always indicate poor quality, but they can compromise patient safety and lead to costly product losses if batches are failed by a lab.
