How We Actually Test Products Before They Hit the Site

Anyone can slap a label on a jar and call it “premium.”
We don’t play that game.

At ThisThatCBD, every single product—flower, cart, dab, or edible—goes through a real vetting process before it ever hits the site. No shortcuts, no favors, no “just trust us” vibes.

Here’s exactly how we decide what makes the cut—and what gets tossed.

🧪 1. We Start with the COA

If there’s no full-panel Certificate of Analysis, it’s an automatic no.

Every product must show:

• THCA potency (not just “total cannabinoids”)

• Terpene breakdown

• Safety results (no heavy metals, pesticides, microbials, solvents)

We check that the labs are reputable—not some fly-by-night operation faking numbers to move units.

🔬 2. We Inspect the Source

We look into who made it—and how.

For flower, we ask:

• Is it indoor, greenhouse, or sun-grown?

• What’s the drying and curing process?

• Do they use living soil, hydro, or synthetic nutrients?

• Are they consistent or just doing one drop and disappearing?

For vapes and dabs:

• Is it live resin, live rosin, or distillate?

• What input material was used?

• Are terpenes botanical or cannabis-derived?

If it’s vague, shady, or sounds like a reseller with no clue, we pass.

🔥 3. We Smoke It Ourselves (Yes, Really)

Lab numbers are cool—but you can’t fake the smoke.

Before we list anything, we actually try it. That means:

• Checking how the flower breaks down, rolls, burns, and tastes

• Testing vapes for hardware reliability, airflow, clogging, and terpene profile

• Dab hits for flavor, vapor production, and post-exhale feel

If it hits harsh, weak, or weird? It’s out.

❌ 4. We Say No More Than We Say Yes

We reject more samples than we accept. And that’s by design.

Some common reasons we turn products away:

• COA doesn’t match the product

• Flower is too dry, poorly trimmed, or smells off

• Vape carts with no terpene presence or poor airflow

• Brands that can’t explain their process or ghost when asked for test results

Our shelves aren’t for filler. They’re for fire.

🧠 5. We Monitor Drops in Real Time

Testing doesn’t stop after the first batch. We keep eyes on every new drop:

• Reviewing fresh COAs

• Watching customer feedback

• Pulling items if quality slips

If a farm switches cure style and the flavor dies off? We rotate it out.
If a cart starts getting clog complaints? We flag it.
No sacred cows. Just quality control.

💬 Final Word: We’re Not Just a Store. We’re a Filter.

Big box resellers will list anything that turns a margin.
We don’t.

We’re here to filter out the mids, the mystery blends, and the overhyped garbage—so you can smoke better without doing the homework yourself.

If it’s on our site, it’s been tested, tasted, and trusted.
