We’re heading to Capitol Hill this week with Americans for Safe Access.

We’ll be meeting with congressional offices and speaking up for patients, home growers, and the people most affected by cannabis policy.

Before we go, we want to hear from you:

What should lawmakers hear from home growers and medical cannabis patients?

Home grow rights? Patient access? Testing? A personal story?

Comment below or DM us. We’ll carry it with us.

ASA is also collecting remote messages and raising funds to support the patients and advocates showing up in person.

Always improving 💪
Numbers crunched 90 days after the last tests of 2025 to ensure plenty of time for error reports as plants moved into flower.
Super proud of my team, Grace, Felicity, and others for doing incredible work. Only 3 confirmed errors (one lab, two clerical). Thousands of happy growers. All with an ultra-fast 1-2 day turnaround time.
No one else does it like us.

Why isn’t it 50/50? 🤔

In March 2026, 57.3% of the samples we tested came back female.

We get asked about this from time to time, and the short answer is: most of what we test is regular seed stock, but feminized plants still make their way into the data. In larger grows, it is pretty common for multiple seed packs to get planted at once, with one of them being feminized, and the person submitting samples may not know which is which. So a few feminized plants get tested along with the regs, and that nudges the ratio upward.

We also see this with bag seeds. A lot of newer growers send those in, and bag seeds are usually the result of self-pollination, which means they are often female.

And cannabis is not unusual here. Other dioecious plant species do not always land at a perfect 50/50 split either. S*x ratios can shift based on biology, stress, and survivorship.

For reference, the last time we shared this data was about a year ago, and that month came in at 60.96% female. Month to month, the variation is usually there, but it is not dramatic.

"But it tested negative 4 months ago"

Most growers test once.
Then life happens.

Plant disease doesn’t show up on your schedule.
It spreads quietly.

A negative test protects a moment.
Consistency protects your plants.

You don’t forget…
until it matters.

You can invest 6–7 figures into a grow…

…and lose it trying to “save” on testing.

I’ve seen it more than once:

Everything looks dialed early.
✅ Transplant done
✅ Flip to flower
Then… pollen sacs show up.

Not nutrients.
Not lighting.

A false negative.
A plant labeled female that wasn’t.

What that really costs:
• Weeks of watering, feeding, and labor—on plants you later cull
• Holes in your canopy where production plants should be
• Worst case: pollinated rooms → seeded flower → discounted harvests

The test didn’t fail at harvest.
It failed the day price mattered more than accuracy.

Cheap testing doesn’t just risk a result.
It risks your entire production plan.

Labs that compete on price alone rarely last.
Accuracy requires margin, discipline, and accountability.

At 99.974% accuracy in 2024 (99.5%+ since 2015; 2025 data pending validation), we’ve learned what it takes to run a tight lab growers worldwide trust.

Real question:
Are you choosing the most accurate partner—
or the cheapest option?

5 things every grower should know about cannabis s*x testing:

1. You can test seedlings at just 7 days old.
No need to wait weeks for pre-flowers. DNA has the answers from the start.

2. S*x tests target the Y chromosome.
Males carry XY. Females carry XX. Y = Male.

3. Results in days, not weeks.
Good labs can turn results in 3-5 business days. Ours does it in 1-2.

4. It unlocks more options when you buy seeds.
You don't have to buy feminized to avoid wasting weeks on males. Pop seeds, submit samples, get results and cull in the first 2 weeks.

5. Testing savings scale with any operation.
Early s*x testing isn't just for large commercial grows. Any grower spending real money on seeds and inputs deserves to know what they're growing as early as possible. Whether you're testing 10 plants or 10,000 — the process is identical.

Do you s*x test your seedlings?
