This testing lab in California, SDPharmLabs just added residual solvent testing to their services a few weeks ago.

I had a custom type extract so I submit it just out of curiosity, here are the results

http://www.sdpharmlabs.com/results/99296ad1eb8cd89661d163ddea3f16f1

Everything seems to be in good ranges, the few that did show up seem to be at very low levels that probably would not matter
r_ethanol: 0.03 mg/g
r_n_pentane: Below Limit of Detection
r_ether: Below Limit of Detection
r_2_propanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_acetone: Below Limit of Detection
r_ethyl_formate: 0.004 mg/g
r_methyl_acetate: 0.005 mg/g
r_1_propanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_2_butanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_2_butanone: Below Limit of Detection
r_ethyl_acetate: Below Limit of Detection
r_2_methyl_1_propanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_tert_butyl_methyl_ether: Below Limit of Detection
r_isopropyl_cetate: 0.017 mg/g
r_1_butanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_n_heptane: Below Limit of Detection
r_propyl_acetate: Below Limit of Detection
r_3_methyl_1_butanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_4_methyl_2_pentanone: Below Limit of Detection
r_1_pentanol: Below Limit of Detection
r_isobutyl_acetate: Below Limit of Detection
r_butyl_acetate: Below Limit of Detection
r_isopropylbenzene: 0.027 mg/g
r_anisole: Below Limit of Detection
r_residual: 0.083 mg/g

So, their test is very complete, testing like 25 solvents, and they are adding in a few more next week also so it will be closer to 30. Also, they only use like .2g of sample and the price is very low at $70 per test compared to others (I have seen up to $170 for this type of test before).


So, seems like a very good service I recommend everyone try it out!

Here locally in Cali SClabs does most dispensary flower and concentrate testing. Growers favor them because they tend to favor a pass, and keep upping thier allowable ppm standards.

yeah, I heard SC Labs has a contract with Weed Maps now, and if you advertise on Weed Maps and mention lab testing, they will DELETE YOUR LISTINGS unless you use SC Labs to test your meds. Seems pretty shady! SC Labs charges like $175 for their solvent test too I think.

Most clubs won't even take your sample unless you got your pot pedigree from sc labs... totally shady... some of the best stuff gets forced off the legitimate market because they don't want to pay more than $2400lb for anything that's not testing (at SC labs) at over like %25 seems like, but if you test higher than %30 its an automatic fail and retest. ALOT of people can't afford to jump though all those hoop to get undersold at half what its worth. Pay you $2400 sell it for $20G and make $6000 profit on flowers, they sell shatter for $20-50 .5g

Its stoopid.

I think the residual solvents, e-coli salmonella tests, total cannabinoids content, and cbd % should be all lumped up together along w heavy metals, etc.
