Like all agricultural products, cannabis begins with cultivation. The growing process includes six core stages: germination, seeding, vegetative growth, pre-flowering, flowering, and harvesting. Once harvested, the product is dried, cured, and trimmed.
Cultivators face unique accounting and compliance challenges, including inventory valuation, labor tracking, cost allocation, and regulatory reporting. High Life Accounting helps cultivation businesses maintain accurate records, optimize cost structures, and remain compliant with state and federal requirements throughout the growing cycle.
Cannabis manufacturing involves extracting cannabinoids and terpenes from raw plant material—either using solvents or solventless methods—and converting them into finished products. This may include packaging bulk flower into pre-rolls, smalls, tops, mids, and kief, or infusing distillate into edibles, beverages, tinctures, and topicals.
Manufacturers face complex compliance requirements related to inventory movement, production costs, excise taxes, and reporting. High Life CPA supports cannabis manufacturers with accounting systems and controls designed to track production accurately while maintaining regulatory compliance.
Cannabis products must be tested in accredited laboratories before reaching the market. Using analytical chromatography, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, labs test for contamination, pesticides, mold, and mildew to ensure products meet compliance standards.
Testing facilities face strict reporting, documentation, and compliance obligations. High Life CPA helps testing labs maintain accurate financial records, support audit readiness, and meet industry-specific regulatory expectations.
Distribution plays a critical role in the cannabis supply chain and is subject to some of the most complex regulatory oversight. Moving product from seed to sale exposes distributors to significant compliance hurdles, including vehicle size limitations, interstate transport restrictions, licensing requirements, and enforcement risks.
High Life CPA helps cannabis distributors manage financial operations while navigating complex intra-state regulations, ensuring accurate reporting, compliance oversight, and defensible financial documentation.
At the end of the supply chain are licensed cannabis retailers, commonly known as dispensaries. Dispensaries are the only authorized point of sale for cannabis products to patients and consumers.
Retailers face challenges related to product sampling, staff education, cash handling, inventory controls, and ongoing compliance. High Life CPA supports dispensaries with cannabis-specific accounting systems that improve visibility, reduce risk, and support long-term profitability.
