Reading a label

The name and state license number of the grower or processor, its trade name, and the package tag from the statewide tracking system (Metrc). If another licensee packaged it, their name and license number appear too.

The date of harvest and the name of the strain, where they apply. A strain name tells you which cultivar the grower says it is; two growers' plants with the same name aren't always genetically identical.

The weight of the product in US customary or metric units.

The concentration of THC and CBD as reported by the lab after testing, with a statement that the actual value may vary from the reported value by 10%.

How long the product typically takes to become active, shown in words or as a pictogram. Follow this guidance for the product you bought.

The name of the lab that performed passing compliance testing on the product in its final form, and the test date.

The state's universal symbol for marijuana products, published by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency, must appear on the package.
