THC and potency

Across 211 public lab tests of Blackwater OG flower between 2020 and 2022, the median result was 25.9% total THC, with half of all samples falling between 23.7% and 28.2%. CBD is typically negligible (under 0.5%). That puts it at the strong end of the market, so newer consumers should start low. Potency varies by grower and batch, so always check the label.

On the palate, people pick out chemical, blue cheese and berry.
