Cultivar Laboratory Testing Results ⚛

That’s total cannabinoids I think you are looking at so THC would be something less. But still, some out of this world numbers on a small subset of the population.

It is a single lab so there could be a general upwards shift for them. They do seem consistent year to year, though. And, the state tightly regulates their lab quality.

Shenanigans?

The “Max THC” chart never gets near 35%. Looks like it tops out at 30-31% and there are only 2 or 3 samples there.

Terpene Prevalence (percentage of samples containing the terpene):

Quantitative Terpenes across sample set (percentage of each specific terpene detected across samples, sample numbers are not correlated):

By my reckoning there has to be some plant biology to support all that THC right? Personally I struggle to conceive that ANY plant could be more than a quarter THC.

It’s partially how the sample is presented / handled. They’ll separate the sample into a couple of different lots and analyze whatever it is that they’ve received. I believe flowers (for potency) are first desiccated to some nominal water content prior to weighing. Terpene analysis is likely refrigerated until needed or immediately placed into solvent. I’ve been meaning to have a conversation with the lab director on some of their procedures.

When you look at the photos of the samples as presented to the lab, a good job trimming does appear to make a difference as you’ve removed the mass that doesn’t contribute much to the percentage of cannabinoids (compared to the total mass). So, what you’d probably want to hand them is basically the most tricome laden portions of the flower. You’re trying to not give them seed laden buds or a bunch of stem and certainly not the whole plant.

A good deal of the “error” could occur here as it entirely depends on what you give them lot to lot. Seeds, stems, leaves, etc could have a significant negative effect on the analysis. You could also sprinkle on some kief or add some synthetic terpenoids to “cook” the sample. I don’t know if anyone does this, though.

So when we say 25%, we are talking about the juiciest part of the plant. The well trimmed and handled flowers do show differences but the photos of the low percentage cannabinoid samples illustrate the bulk of the poorly handled/trimmed samples as submitted.

Something like this:


will probably test higher than something like this:

A post was merged into an existing topic: Strainly site closing down!

Cool data :joy:

I like the middle bands you can see in there. There’s clearly a set of plants bred mostly for THC, secondarily for CBD hemp and then a sparse middle band of plants from breeders who were clearly going for 1:1 ~ 1:2 ratios.

As a stoned nerd, once I stopped to think about how the data was being displayed, I became impressed at the person who came up with this plot style. It’s kind of brilliant.

Stare at it long enough and there are a whole bunch of interesting insights to be had. I need to pull some of the data from this season to see if anything is new and interesting as far as trends go.

Some flower test data updates since the last review.

Data spans from around mid-July of last year until today (9/19/2020). For your perusal.

Keep in mind these are from different growers but the test results are from the same lab (state certified). These have been sorted by total cannabinoids where the totals for each type may consist of THC and CBD in different states of decomposition (e.g. THCa, THCva, THC, etc). If there is a specific strain you’d like to see expanded test data on where the cannabionoids or terpenes are broken out, let me know.

Most of which are from a number of years ago.

Was just browsing around, Apothecary Genetics has Sunset Sherbert as regular seeds. A recreation highly probable. There are some on-line sources for clones but, likewise, not sure if you can necessarily trust them if you’re trying to get the original. Most of the descriptions these vendors have mirror the Apothecary description.

Negative, east coast.

its not the plant , its a highly manicured bud sample, light fluffy buds can come real high, but thc is a different word then it used to be . Total thc is a US gov mandated word, meant to decieve

thanks for sharing the data.

so max thc means thca also?

Correct, Max THC in the data I’ve posted is a calculated value:

Max THC = THC + (THCa * 0.877)

By the way Highgrade labs in okc does walk in testing and dont care if its personal stash or commercial. They were very reasonable.
They only wanted a gram to test.
