Section 105 - Tracking systemThe office shall implement and administer a system, referred to in this section as "the tracking system," for the tracking of cannabis plants, adult use cannabis and adult use cannabis products from immature cannabis plant to the point of retail sale, return, disposal or destruction. The tracking system must allow for cannabis plants at the stage of cultivation and upon transfer from the stage of cultivation to another licensee to be tracked by group. The office may implement a tracking system that allows adult use cannabis or adult use cannabis products to be tracked by group.
The office shall ensure that the system implemented and administered under this section, whether tracking individually or by group, maintains a detailed record at every stage from immature cannabis plant to the point of retail sale, return, disposal or destruction.
1. Data submission requirements. The tracking system must allow licensees to submit tracking data for adult use cannabis or adult use cannabis products to the office. The tracking system must permit licensees to submit all required tracking data through manual data entry or through the use of software that connects to the tracking system maintained by the office through an application program interface, including without limitation point-of-sale system software. Nothing in this subsection may be construed to permit the submission of required tracking data using an application program interface that cannot transmit all required data to the tracking system required by the office.1-A.Group tracking. Cannabis plants at the same stage of growth that are of the same varietal or cultivar of the plant genus Cannabis may be tracked by group if they: A. Are planted in the same specific area at the same time; [2021, c. 628, §1(NEW).]B. Are transplanted to the same specific area at the same time; or [2021, c. 628, §1(NEW).]C.

Cannabis plants may not be tracked as a group unless they are intended for harvest as a group.
