Think Higher Caregiving, LLC, operating as Pure Propagation, has lost its active license status in Montana, according to the state license roster updated Sept. 9. The deactivation is one of at least 12 licenses removed from the roster on the same date, spanning retail, cultivation, manufacturing, and testing operations.

Montana's adult-use market, which logged roughly $29.2 million in sales across July and August 2026, currently supports 538 open retailers, 302 cultivation licenses, 180 manufacturing operations, and 2 testing labs. The exact causes of the closures—whether voluntary surrender, regulatory action, or administrative processing—are not specified in the roster data.

Watch whether these deactivations reflect routine license churning or signal broader compliance or market pressures in Montana. The scale of simultaneous removals suggests a routine regulatory batch update, but the trend warrants monitoring against future roster activity.
