FSD is about “reaching economies of scale” and aims to produce nearly a million pounds of pharmaceutical-grade cannabis a year, he said. The growing facility — inside a former Kraft cheese plant in the Ontario town of Cobourg — is self-contained and large enough to require its own power sub-station and water supply. Tied into the Canadian rail system, the grow eventually will have nearly 4 million square feet available for production, Bokhari said. About 25,000 square feet is already functional.
