Commercial Cannabis Cultivation: Licences for Cultivating Cannabis in Canada

If you are looking to commercially cultivate cannabis in Canada, the first step is understanding the different licence types that are available to you as well as the different restrictions or requirements that are associated with each one of them.

But, before we get into the specifics, it would be important to note what different types of cultivation class licences issued by Health Canada are available.

For example, as per section 11 of the Cannabis Regulations, a holder of a licence for micro cultivation or standard cultivation is authorized to possess cannabis, to obtain dried cannabis, fresh cannabis, cannabis plants or seeds by means of cultivating, propagating and harvesting cannabis, and to sell cannabis.

When it comes to access control at the micro level, you are technically only required to have access control on your secure storage room where you will be storing your cannabis once it has been harvested and processed .

Unlike the standard and micro cultivation licence types, with a nursery licence you are only allowed to obtain cannabis plants or seeds by means of cultivating, propagating and harvesting cannabis.
