Today is 4/20, and for Minnesota cannabis users, it's the first such holiday during which there's a big enough industry to easily buy the stuff legally.
State of play: The rollout has been slow as an influx of retailers awaits growers to produce enough to stock stores. But there are signs of progress.
🏪 Minnesota has surpassed 100 marijuana dispensaries, according to a Star Tribune tracker.
💰 Monthly retail sales reached $13 million in March after hovering in the $8 to $10 million range between October and February, per state figures.
🌿 Growers harvested 17,000 plants last month, up from the roughly 10,000 a month they were harvesting last fall.
