A THC number above 30 percent does not come from luck. It comes from the right genetics grown in the right conditions.

Potency has a ceiling set by the plant and a result set by the grower. Both have to line up to reach the top of the scale.

Where the potency lives

Most of the strength sits in the trichomes, the tiny resin heads on the flower. Genetics decide how high a strain can go. The grow decides how much of that you actually reach.

Getting near the top

Strong stock, tight climate control, and picking at the right moment. Push any one of those and the number drops. Hold them all and the flower reaches its potential.
