Recall widens after lab testing fails

Originally issued on June 11 for nine products by IndoGro LLC, the recall was expanded on June 25 to include 28 additional lots. Officials identified unallowable pesticide residues and material sourced from unlicensed growers—violating state standards.

Consumer safety at the forefront

Although no adverse health incidents have been reported, regulators are treating this as a precaution. Adult-use dispensaries across New York must immediately remove the affected items—including flower and pre-rolls named “Sour Runtz,” “Blue Coffee,” “Oreoz,” and more—from shelves.

Compliance gaps uncovered

The issue stemmed from invalid lab results submitted by a permitted testing facility. Retesting revealed the contamination, prompting both consumer safety action and regulatory enforcement. The introduction of unlicensed cannabis material compounds the infractions, pushing it into structural compliance territory.

Regulator’s guidance and next steps

Licensed retailers and distributors are required to notify both the Office of Cannabis Management and consumers. Opened or unopened products may be returned. The Office continues to highlight the importance of rigorous testing and traceability throughout the supply chain.

What consumers should do

If you purchased any affected products, even if already used, contact your dispensary to return them. Report any health concerns via the state’s incident form or seek medical advice. This recall underscores the active safety measures built into New York’s legal cannabis oversight.
