The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority (OMMA) issued an embargo on June 7, 2024, and a recall on June 10, 2024, involving products produced by Graves Farm Organics LLC (PAAA-EYKG-PCTX).
The recalled products failed safety re-testing for pesticides and include: Bomber pre-rolls, Orange Push Pop Crumble, Ice Cream Cake Crumble and Gorilla Breath Sugar. Bomber pre-rolls failed for the pesticide permethrin and Orange Push Pop Crumble, Ice Cream Cake Crumble and Gorilla Breath Sugar all failed for the pesticide spiromesifen.
The product recall list includes the product type, brand name, business name and date packaged. These products will be removed from shelves and properly disposed of according to OMMA rules, available at omma.ok.gov/rules.
Patients are advised to check the recall list o determine if any products currently on hand are impacted. If a patient is concerned about consuming a product listed, they are encouraged to contact their physician and fill out the Health Impact Form on OMMA's website at omma.ok.gov.
Processors that received the recall notice are required to inform dispensaries that bought the recalled products. Dispensaries are required to notify patients who purchased the recalled products and remove these items from shelves immediately.
Licensees must dispose of recalled products per OMMA rules. The commercial licensee whose harvest or production batch is being recalled is responsible for disposal costs of all waste. Licensees with questions are advised to visit omma.ok.gov/contact.
The cannabis recall process plays an important role in ensuring defective or potentially unsafe products are removed from the commercial market. Recalls are issued when OMMA scientists evaluate test results and other data leading to the determination that action is necessary. In many cases this includes submitting samples for multiple tests to confirm results, often utilizing multiple laboratories. With the passage of Senate Bill 813, authorizing OMMA to operate a quality assurance lab, this process will be expedited. Funding for the lab was secured in the most recent legislative session, and work is underway.
