Can harmful mold toxins survive processing? Surprisingly, yes.

Certain molds produce mycotoxins that can remain in h**p, cannab*s, mushrooms, and other botanical products even after standard manufacturing steps.

Humidity, storage conditions, and processing practices can all influence contamination risks.

The surprising part? These compounds can persist without visible signs of mold.

Learn why mycotoxins are so difficult to eliminate and how scientists detect them in trace amounts.

What does it take to get licensed to grow h**p?

An application involves much more than filling out a form. Growers need to identify cultivation sites by GPS coordinates, complete background checks, pay state fees, and meet additional local requirements.

The exact process depends on where the farm operates.

Our new guide walks through the application process and explains what growers can expect from start to approval.

Testing claims are everywhere. Consumers need to know how to tell which ones hold up.

ACS Laboratory’s latest guide walks consumers through how to verify third-party h**p testing, identify incomplete or outdated results, and understand what comprehensive testing looks like.

For brands, it’s also a ready-made educational resource. Share it with customers or reference it in your own content to help explain the testing behind your products.

Why can a nano gummy work differently from a traditional gummy when both contain the same active compounds?

It comes down to formulation.

Traditional edibles contain relatively large oil droplets. Nanoemulsion technology breaks that oil into microscopic droplets, which can change how quickly the body processes and absorbs the active compounds.

Our latest guide explains what nano technology changes, what human studies have found, and what lab testing can actually verify.

There’s a sweet spot when it comes to moisture in h**p and Cnnbis.

Too much can increase microbial risk. Too little can mean brittle flower, terpene loss, and reduced product weight.

And moisture content alone doesn’t tell the whole story. Water activity measures the “free” water available to support microbial growth and spoilage.

Our updated guide explains why brands should understand both.

How long do edibles stay in the system?

Many consumers assume the answer depends on how long they feel the effects. Research tells a more complex story.

Our latest guide explores one of the most common cannab*s questions and explains the factors that influence THC detection times.

States now drive many of the most important h**p regulations in the country.

They set requirements that impact how brands test, label, market, and sell products.

Brands that stay informed can navigate change with confidence and position themselves for long-term success.
