In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king
Lately I've been purchasing based on THC% and Total Terpenes%. When I made my selections on THC% alone I didn't mind as much if I ordered something with 20% and got around 18%. If I ordered 20% but got something way less like 15% I would request an exchange or refund. Now that I spend the time to read the test results and make my selection on both factors I find I've gotten less forgiving.
I am aware that many dispos in Florida have a disclaimer stating they don't promise the specs ordered will exactly match the specs received. I remember the good/bad old days..... if a dinosaur (my day was a long time ago ;-) sold something that didn't line up with what was promised it wasn't accepted.
Example: There was some 9lb Hammer 8ths with 3% terps and 18% THC. What I got was 17% THC and 1.76% Terps. I didn't mind the drop in THC% but the drop in terps bothered me. I could return something like that no problem but it was bargain basement $ and didn't seem worth the trouble even if the dispo would deliver the exchange for free. No guarantee the exchange would be better although I feel confident they would select an 8th from a different batch if on-hand. I'm also aware that few trust the test results but I gotta select based on something. The above happens often. Sometimes its a drop and occasionally, rarely, the specs are better.
From now on I'm steering clear of delivery so I can do the check when I'm handed the product. I may only be able to verify THC% on the jar but its good enough since typically if the THC% isn't the same as ordered its a different batch than ordered and it might be a good idea to ask for the test results if terps matter to you.
What's your experience and what do you do?
