Cannabis potency is a topic that people talk about a lot when they shop at a dispensary. Product packaging can show THC and other cannabinoid information which lets consumers compare products. However potency is one characteristic that should be considered when selecting cannabis.
THC levels can be shown in ways depending on the product. For flower consumers may see THC information written as a percentage. Edibles can give THC amounts for each serving and for the package. Concentrates and vape products can have their concentration information.
A higher THC number does not automatically mean that a product is the choice for every consumer. Individual experience, product format serving size and personal preferences all matter. Consumers should consider their familiarity with cannabis and carefully read product labels.
Other characteristics can also help when comparing cannabis. CBD, terpenes, product type, ingredients, quantity and formulation can all help give a complete picture of a product. Looking beyond a potency number can lead to more informed purchasing decisions.
