Anyone can claim anything, and plants differ by the seed.
I'm not sure, but it seems even a clone wouldn't have identical THC levels unless grown EXACTLY like the mother.
I wouldn't pay much attention to the THC levels they tell you.

Well Satori from Mandala technically holds the world record, but take that for what it's worth.
I do hear it's a surprisingly potent strain however.

For the record, all the testing that I've seen claims to be THC%/overall dry weight of a sample not THC%/resin

That's what I've noticed too, and that's exactly what makes me think the claims are incredible bullshit. I have a hard time believing that even the most resin covered plants are anywhere near 1/4 resin by weight . That just seems like such an incredible quantity that I just honestly can't believe it. Especially after doing hash runs and weighing the material before and after...

do you assume so? dry weight of extract sample maybe? cause they extract the resin so they can run it. most tests are done this way and give % cannabinoids of each. from methods ive seen.
also it would be easy to fudge results selecting certain parts of the plant if they indeed used dry weight of plant. but most dont and ones that do come out MAX ~10-15%. Like harry said if you just think about what comes out of extraction there is a huge disconnect.


"Based on actual laboratory generated data, the average percentage of THC in samples of seized marijuana in the period from 1985-2005 rose from approximately 3.5 to 8.1 percent (National Drug Threat Assessment 2007)."
"We collect a representative sample of the volume to be certified (~ 1g/ .25 pound), isolate the resin and put the sample through a rigorous lab testing process" medical MJ testing in montana

You know it's a good question but has to many variables. The strains that I have enjoyed the most to smoke have been Granddaddy Purple, Purple Kush, Mikado, Blockhead, Sweet Tooth #3, and a few of my own strains mainly cause I make those according to what I like.

I'm not expert but I think the best is to choose landrace seeds
I live in Turkey, the landrace plant grows in here has thc around 1 2 % I think because the buds are very small.
But for example I went to Iran many times and each time I tried to smoke I can't even smoke correctly they bring cough badly also they are narc, after one two hits it's like you smoked morphin with a lot of psy experience.
Went to india, their weed sucks it smells like curry, I don't know where exactly they say about south india weed but it's worst than here.
Pakistan, Brazil, Thailand and African
but finding good landrace seeds is hard, because even if you go to those countries you may not find the landrace. but for example Seedsman or World of Seeds labels have many strains with reasonable prices. I just tried 2, 3 strain from them and 2, 3 still growing and seems good.
