Why Lab Testing Matters: The Risks of Contaminants in Non-Medical Grade Cannabis

In Thailand’s growing market, the visible difference between premium medical flowers and street-grade products can sometimes be minimal. However, the microscopic difference is critical to patient health.

For immunocompromised patients using cannabis medically, contaminants can pose severe health risks.

Common Invisible Dangers in Untested Products

  • Heavy Metals: Cannabis is a bioaccumulator. If grown in poor soil without GACP protocols, it absorbs lead, arsenic, and mercury, which are toxic when inhaled.
  • Pesticides and PGRs: Harmful chemical residues used to artificially boost yield in illicit operations.
  • Molds and Mycotoxins: Improper curing and storage in humid climates like Phuket lead to fungal growth, which can cause severe respiratory infections.

The 300 Genetics Standard

We do not compromise. Every batch distributed to clinics comes with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) from certified labs, confirming potency and, crucially, the absence of harmful contaminants. Medical cannabis must be medicine first.
