Teddy Gramz COA's
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) for THC-A is a laboratory report that provides verified test results on a cannabis or hemp product. It ensures consumers and businesses know exactly what’s in the product, that it complies with legal standards, and that it’s safe to consume.
Here’s a breakdown of what a THC-A COA typically includes:
🔍 Identification
-
Product name/strain (e.g., flower, concentrate, edible).
-
Batch or lot number (so results can be traced to a specific production run).
-
Date of testing and laboratory name (must be a licensed third-party lab).
📊 Cannabinoid Profile
-
The COA lists the concentrations of cannabinoids, usually in percentage (%) or mg/g.
-
For THC-A, it specifically shows:
-
THC-A %
-
Delta-9 THC %
-
Other cannabinoids like CBD, CBG, CBC, etc.
-
-
This is important because hemp-derived products must stay under 0.3% Delta-9 THC (per the 2018 Farm Bill) to remain federally legal.
🧪 Contaminant Testing
-
Heavy metals (like lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury).
-
Pesticides (toxic residues from cultivation).
-
Microbials (mold, bacteria, yeast).
-
Residual solvents (if extracted with chemicals).
✅ Why It’s Important
-
Transparency & Safety: Ensures the product is clean and accurately labeled.
-
Compliance: Verifies the product meets federal and state regulations.
-
Consumer Trust: Shows customers exactly what they are buying and consuming.
📌 In short:
A COA for THC-A is the lab’s official “report card” for your product. It confirms potency, safety, and compliance — which is critical for dispensaries, smoke shops, and customers.
