After harvesting, the residual moisture in cannabis material plays an important role in its overall quality and long-term storage. It is also useful when considering its potency by weight, very damp samples may test lower than expected.
Total ash tests involve heating the sample to very high temperatures and determining the residual material left behind, which will be inorganic in nature. High ash content is indicative of an inferior product, and there are limits which must be respected for cannabis products.
High Ash corresponds to a large amount of inorganic contaminants which accumulate during growth
Lower ash content ensures that a safer product is given to consumers
Ash content is a final measure of how consistent a product may be from harvest to harvest. It can also be informative when trying to optimize the cultivation conditions.
