Its a huge problem here in the US. My friend works in a lab that does tests on samples from all over. Their lab is close to shutting down because they dont inflate numbers like the other labs in the state. So the other dispensaries are passing over their lab for other ones that do inflate numbers. Its terrible. Also as someone who grows their own, you can just tell the home grown has way more potency than the highest stuff they sell at a dispensary.
I've always said, when you grow it yourself, you put time and money to grow the best crop you can. When you grow to make money you go for the fastest and cheapest grow.
True that. I even use autoflowers most of the time so the grow is significantly shorter and the product is no different from a photoperiod plant. But the mass production for dispensaries are just gross and overpriced. Plus all my friends get to enjoy some potent home grown of their choosing!
