Emerald Health Therapeutics (TSXV:EMH) (OTCQX:EMHTF) released news this morning that its 50%-owned Pure Sunfarms received an additional amendment to its cultivation license. Today marks Health Canada's seventh granted amendment to the license.

Pure Sunfarms Corp is a large-scale, low-cost, high-quality cannabis production greenhouse facility located in Delta, British Columbia. The total square footage of this facility is 1.1 million, putting EMHTF stock up there with the major cannabis producers and distributors in Canada.

Today's amendment to Sunfarms' cultivation license adds an additional 206,000 square feet of growing space to the fourth and final quadrant of the facility. Now, cultivation will stretch to 1.03 million square feet at the Pure Sunfarms facility, allowing for up to 16 grow rooms.

The Rundown

While Emerald Health Therapeutics may own only 50% of the Pure Sunfarms operation, the company is still a major participant in the massive cultivation and distribution movements throughout Western Canada. Even though EMHTF stock is considered a penny stock, it has a lot of potential for growth considering the latest increase in production capacity.
