They need time to figure out how to game the market and make backroom deals with rich investor friends on making the industry as vertically integrated and cartelish as possible.
I get six months or so, because while you can copy the general concept of what other states have done, you still have to arrange whatever regulatory capacity is needed and maybe write some custom administrative rules. Hell, maybe a year. But 2-3 years is indefensible.

The need time to bust the major gro-ops so their friends can corner the market first.
