Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTC:MJNA) and PhytoSPHERE Systems are pleased to inform shareholders and the general public that the company has expanded hemp production significantly. With the expansion, the company has increased production of the industry's first natural pharmaceutical-grade CBD-rich oils and derivatives. The increased capacity to 6,000 tons of raw base material from 2,000 tons will make PhytoSPHERE Systems one of the largest hemp production companies in the world. PhytoSPHERE Systems has recently created US Hemp Oil Corp, which is currently developing the Pet industries first CBD-based Pet Care product line- "Cibdex" as well as an exclusive CBD- cannabinoid Skin Care Line aptly named "Cibaderm". Increase of Hemp Production to an estimated 6,000 Tons for 2013 Harvest PhytoSPHERE Systems has informed shareholders that the company has added 4,000 tons of raw hemp to the present production capabilities of 2,000 tons. The increase in hemp based raw materials increases the company's production capabilities of CBD-rich oils as well as allows the company to increase its production of other cannabinoid rich hemp oils such as Cannabigerol ( CBG ). Furthermore, this production increase is expected to add the equivalent of 450 tons of Cannabinoid-rich hemp oil to overall reserves- an increase of 300 tons. With the recent licensing agreement with CannaVest Corp the opportunity was created for this increased production which in turn lowered the overall cost of the raw ingredients significantly. These costs savings will eventually lead to lower sales prices for finished goods for consumers. PhytoSPHERE to Invest in Hemp Harvesting and Product Equipment PhytoSPHERE Systems, in order to keep up with expanding worldwide hemp production, has announced the company will invest in a series of new hemp harvesting and production equipment. This will allow for the added in-ground production to be processed and handled in an efficient manner while keeping the integrity of the supply chain intact and increasing the quality of the production. PhytoSPHERE to Expand Product Capabilities into Pharmaceutical Market PhytoSPHERE Systems has additionally announced that it will expand production of cannabidiolic acid (CBD-A) and various terpenes/terpenoids in line with increased demand from pharmaceutical companies and research bodies. PhytoSPHERE will also start to produce significant quantities of a second cannabinoid—cannabigerol (CBG). These simultaneous developments will enable the company to explore additional combinations of products within new and expanding product lines. Research has shown that combining various cannabinoids and terpenoids have increased the overall effects of a single component cannabinoid product. This effect has been coined the "Entourage Effect". The company is positioning itself to supply large quantities of naturally derived cannabinoids, terpenesterpenoids to the pharmaceutical industry as an additiveenhancing ingredient to their current product portfolio's whereby making the products have the "Entourage Effect" or be more effective against the companies target demographic. PhytoSPHERE Systems US-Based Operations Expanding PhytoSPHERE Systems expanded their US-based operations with the increase of its office, warehouse and laboratory operations with new leases in San Diego California and Las Vegas Nevada. The company is still actively recruiting and hiring new team members in customer services and sales.
