Understanding Cannabis Testing Regulations in California

Cannabis testing laboratories in California must comply with regulations set by the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC). These rules ensure that all cannabis products meet strict safety and quality standards before reaching consumers. Testing labs are responsible for verifying:

• Potency – THC and CBD content must be accurately measured.
• Contaminants – Products must be free from harmful pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, and microbial impurities.
• Terpene Profiles – Lab reports must include detailed terpene compositions.
• Homogeneity – Edibles and infused products must be evenly dosed.

Failure to meet these standards can result in license suspension, fines, or business closure. Our attorneys help cannabis testing labs stay ahead of regulatory changes and avoid legal pitfalls.
