Every strain processed with the same matching rules from the same dataset.1

How published figures compare

Published figures differ: Leafly displays 17% THC, AllBud lists 18–25%, and Weedmaps describes 14–18% THC.2,3,4 In the state-lab subset, 90% of results were below 24.63%, so a single database number should not stand in for the whole distribution.1

Leafly calls terpinolene the dominant terpene, followed by myrcene and pinene; Weedmaps says lab tests show high terpinolene, myrcene and limonene.2,4 Our strict-match subset leads with terpinolene 0.32%, β-caryophyllene 0.11%, β-myrcene 0.07%, so the first terpene agrees while the secondary order differs by source and panel.1

Limits of this data

  • Coverage is uneven: NV (92), WA (58), MI (40), CA (23), FL (21) supply most tests. The public dataset is non-random, so the figures describe matched records rather than every batch sold under the name.1
  • Among the 247 tests with a lab recorded, no single lab accounts for more than 34.8% (24 labs with records). The guide uses the median and middle half rather than maxima.1
  • Terpene medians come from 139 tests with individual values, not every THC result. They therefore describe a narrower, differently distributed subset.1
  • Names were matched strictly: 772 near-match records, led by Purple Trainwreck (353), were excluded, along with duplicates and non-flower products.1
