A strain name is marketing. The lab sheet is chemistry.
Dominant terpenes
In the order they usually test highest. Each links to what was actually studied.
Take this to the counter
Three questions that turn a strain name into a decision you can defend.
Ask for the batch COA.
The certificate of analysis is the lab sheet for the batch in front of you. Ask to see it before you decide.
Ask total THC on this batch.
Compare it against the 19 to 28 percent range on this page. A number well above it means a stronger start than you may expect.
Ask which terpenes tested highest.
This cultivar usually leads with Beta-caryophyllene. If the batch leads with something else, expect it to feel different.
Related cultivars
These share at least one dominant terpene, which usually matters more than the name.
