    How do you measure thc

      Hi Cathy, measuring THC can be tricky. When you buy cannabis from a dispensary the container that it comes in will be labelled with the THC percentage. Or, if you know the strain you have, you can google the name of it and find the THC percentage range its in. Although this range should be taken with a grain of salt as there are a lot of variables involved in the final THC content.
