How much sample should I send for each test?

In general, each individual test will require about 1g of flower, 0.5 g of concentrate, or a single serving of an edible (or 1g, depending on the size/form of the edible product)

For Adult-Use sample sizing, please refer to this info from the OCP:

Please note:

- For small batches of edible products - we will always require 6 units to perform all of the tests required for compliance. In a similar vein, for small batches of flower or concentrates it is always helpful to include an additional gram or two in order to allow for any re-testing.

- For any Homogeneity testing, please include the two additional samples in separate containers. Those samples are included in the required sample weight/count for any Adult-Use testing.
