Minnesota chose two companies to grow and sell medical marijuana. Out of 12 applicants, Leafline Labs and Minnesota Medical Solutions were picked to have product ready for sale by July.

More from MPR News:

Minnesota Medical Solutions said its cannabis greenhouse in Otsego will be up and running this week.

Lawmakers passed the strictest medical marijuana law in the country earlier this year. It prohibits smoking of the drug and requires instead that it be manufactured in pill or oil form.

Medical marijuana will only be available to patients suffering from about 10 conditions including ALS and cancer.

Manny Munson-Regala, Minnesota Department of Health assistant commissioner, joins The Daily Circuit for an update on how the program will work, and what's still left to figure out. Kyle Kingsley, CEO of Minnesota Medical Solutions, will also join the discussion.
