Ohio: Cannabis Store Reopens After Brief Health Scare Tied To Vapes

Sep 23, 2026 | Great Lakes Region, Ohio

An Ohio cannabis store owned by a small-scale marijuana multistate operator reopened last week after a brief health scare that law enforcement and the company believed was tied to vaporizers.

The state Division of Cannabis Control allowed Vext Science’s Herbal Wellness Center store in Jackson, Ohio, to reopen Sept. 17 after an investigation found no contaminants in cannabis products used by two “customers who experienced serious health effects,” agency spokesman Jaime Crawford told MJBizDaily on Wednesday.
