The one test nobody is ordering

We have read 651 lab certificates from 12 libraries, issued by at least 13 different laboratories — 119 on 21 August 2026 and 532 on 26 August. Sixteen had a terpene panel run and one reported figures. Your certificates are almost certainly among the other 635, and that is not a criticism — the laboratories offer the assay, and this channel simply does not order it.

So this is not a request for paperwork you already have. It is a request for one more line on your next lab order, and it costs you money. Here is exactly what it involves.

Read the survey — every brand, every lab, the whole table →

Not one of the 61 cultivars listed on a shelf in this directory has a measured terpene panel behind it. Zero. The finder cannot name a product for anybody until that changes.

The ten-second check

Open your most recent certificate and look for a table of named terpenes — myrcene, limonene, caryophyllene, pinene, linalool — each with a percentage beside it. That is a terpene panel, and it is what we need.

If what you see is cannabinoid potency plus pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, mycotoxins and residual solvents, there is no panel on it. That is a thorough, expensive, genuinely useful certificate. It just does not measure aroma chemistry, and no amount of reading it will tell us how a cultivar is likely to come across.

If yours does have a panel

Then send it, because you would be the first shop in this directory we can say that about. A batch panel beats any published figure ever written: it measures the jar actually in your case, on the date it was tested.

If it does not — what to ask your lab

• Ask for a terpene profile to be added to your next submission. Labs that already run your potency and contaminant work generally offer it; it is ordered per sample, not per shop.
• It is a separate line item with a separate price, and it has to be requested when the sample goes in — it cannot be added to a batch already tested.
• One cultivar is enough to start. You do not need to panel your whole shelf to find out whether this is worth doing.

Being straight about it: we do not pay for this and we are not going to pretend it is free. It is your money, spent on a test your competitors are not buying, in exchange for being the only shelf a chemistry finder can name.

What we do with it

• We publish the measured figures on the strain page, exactly as the certificate reads.
• The page names the laboratory, the batch date and your shop. Your spend, credited.
• That cultivar becomes matchable, so the finder can name it and send people to you for it.
• We never publish your prices, and we never alter what a certificate says.

What we will not do

We will not estimate a profile, average one from elsewhere, or copy figures off a seed bank or a menu. We tested that shortcut and it does not survive contact with the data: across 1,950 growers, the leading terpene changes between growers for every cultivar we checked. A name is not a measurement, so a cultivar stays honestly blank until one exists.

Not ready to order a panel?

Then publish what you already hold. Of the 354 shops here with a website, 310 publish no certificates at all, and 21 more link a library a customer cannot actually open — a dead link, a folder nobody can browse, a lookup form. Only 23 publish certificates that open, and every one of them carries a badge on its listing, a link straight to their library, and a place in the filter people use to find them. Tell us where yours lives and we will read it.
