How Pro Labs Figure Out % THC of Strains

Today I talk about how companies measure that THC% you hear about so much. I have previously blogged on the evolving potency level of Cannabis. How potent it is has greatly changed over the last several decades, from averages in the low single digits to the low double digits (see the episode link below for more info). But as for HOW it is measured, that is done using lab testing and a tool called a Chromatograph. Using a GC-MS Test on a sample of resin off the buds gives you all the numbers you need; the only catch is you have to be a trained chemist to use the equipment properly. Yes, it is possible to buy such a machine on your own and learn to use it, for a smart person, but it won't be fun if a part breaks on it.
