EP 45: The Importance of Strict Standards With Michael Richmond
Did you know that CBD and cannabis go through strict third-party testing? Michael Richmond of Green Scientific Labs is in the business of full-service cannabis testing. He was originally in digital marketing and was a minority investor in a lab when he was introduced to someone trying to open a third party testing operation. With his 8-year-old daughter using CBD to manage anxiety, Michael had a personal reason for wanting to get involved in and understand the quality control process. He jumped on board and co-founded Green Scientific Labs, becoming the President.
Michael says that while being an accredited lab shows that you have the necessary processes in place, it doesn’t mean it’s backed by quality science. He shares why it’s so important to have people with the knowledge in addition to accreditation. Michael believes they have the best scientists and the best compliance guy in the country. They test for everything from potency to pesticides and are only weeks away from getting their DEA registration. Check out greenscientificlabs.com to learn more.
