Percentages does not mean it isn't true. it is what that pheno was tested at.
but since theres so many bull methods and no standards/protocols for testing one lab could test a pheno and get x and another lab you get b.
Harborside dispensary in Oakland tests their strains which is accurate and they have sections for high-grade, mid grade, and low-grade. So you know what you are getting and you can see the actual paperwork for the test of that pheno meaning that entire batch came from that pheno.
harborside have a notorious reputation for lying, percentages should never be a factor when buying from anywhere. low grade, high grade? canna %s do not indicate high strength, there are over 80 cannabinoids at play here, eg some of the best strains, hazes are lucky to get over 20%thc .have you neverhad a low grade outsmoked a high grade?. what method does harbourisde say they use?
but not just anybody can interview tons of BREEDERS (not just growers) and interview them about their flagship strains
Cervantes, rosenthal and high times writers go around to cups and ask people too pay to be in their books FACT, they can say what ever they like so long as they get a cheque, not a great source. breeders lol , you can count cannabis breeders on one hand, rest are pollen chuckers.
