Calamus Nursery LLC, licensed as a commercial distributor (transport-only), has ceased active status in California's cannabis regulatory system. The license, numbered C13-0000319-LIC, was previously marked active on state records.

The closure appears amid a broader wave of roster churn: six other operators deactivated licenses between August 19–21, while at least five new retail and distribution licenses issued during the same period. This pattern suggests ongoing market flux rather than sector-wide distress, though the specific reasons for Calamus Nursery's departure remain unknown.

Watch whether transport-only distributors continue to exit the market as larger consolidated supply chains mature, or whether this represents routine license cycling. Closure reasons—voluntary exit, regulatory action, consolidation—will clarify the underlying dynamic.
