Pennsylvania Cannabis Lab Results: November 2026

Pennsylvania cannabis lab results for the 18,136 flower batches on dispensary menus on November 13, 2026 show a median total THC of 26.1% and median total terpenes of 1.96%. The most common dominant terpenes were limonene, myrcene and caryophyllene.

Numbers are from the lab results posted with each batch. Higher numbers aren’t better or worse; they’re one part of what’s in the package.

Cannabinoids and terpenes by category

Ranges show the 10th to 90th percentile, so eight in ten batches fall inside them. Each batch counts once, however many stores carry it.

Medians are by weight (% of the product). CBD-dominant products are rare: 0.2% of flower batches and 1.2% of vape batches listed more CBD than THC. Among other cannabinoids, flower lab results listed CBG for 40%, CBGA for 57%, and CBD for 14% of batches.

Top terpenes in Pennsylvania flower

The dominant terpene is the one with the highest level in a batch’s lab results. Of 18,021 flower batches with terpene results, here’s how often each terpene came out on top, and how often it showed up at all.

  • Limonene

    Dominant in 34% · found in 98% · median 0.43% when found

  • Myrcene

    Dominant in 31% · found in 97% · median 0.35% when found

  • Caryophyllene

    Dominant in 27% · found in 99% · median 0.40% when found

  • Terpinolene

    Dominant in 5.4% · found in 37% · median 0.01% when found

  • Linalool

    Dominant in 0.9% · found in 93% · median 0.17% when found

  • α-Pinene

    Dominant in 0.9% · found in 83% · median 0.05% when found

  • β-Pinene

    Dominant in 0.1% · found in 90% · median 0.08% when found

  • Ocimene

    Dominant in 0.1% · found in 35% · median 0.08% when found

Terpene names are grouped (for example, β-caryophyllene is counted as caryophyllene and d-limonene as limonene), because labs label them differently.

How lab testing works in Pennsylvania

Every medical cannabis product sold in Pennsylvania is tested by a state-approved, independent laboratory. The grower/processor contracts with the lab, and a lab employee collects the samples under chain-of-custody rules, so growers don’t pick their own samples.

  • Two rounds of tests. Samples from each harvest are tested before processing, and a different approved lab tests each finished process lot before it’s sold.
  • What’s tested. Potency (cannabinoids such as THC, THCA, CBD, CBDA, CBG, CBN, CBC, THCV, CBDV and delta-8), terpenes, microbes, mycotoxins, heavy metals, pesticides, residual solvents and moisture.
  • Certificate of analysis. The lab issues a certificate of analysis for each tested batch or lot, and results go into the state’s electronic tracking system.
  • Failed tests. A failed sample can be retested once, and a pass then has to be confirmed by another lab. Otherwise the lot is destroyed (or, for yeast or mold only, it can be made into a topical).
  • Stability testing. Products still on dispensary shelves are retested every six months to check potency and purity.

The numbers on a label come from these tests. Two packages with the same strain name can test very differently, so Wodl ties each review to the batch you actually bought.

About this data

This is a snapshot of the lab results for every flower, vape and concentrate batch that was in stock on a Pennsylvania dispensary menu in the two days before November 13, 2026. Total THC is the figure reported for the batch, and terpene totals are the lab’s total or the sum of the listed terpenes. Wodl shows aggregate numbers here and doesn’t rank products. This post is information, not medical advice.

Wodl is a free cannabis journal for adults 21+. Scan the barcode to see the cannabinoids and terpenes for that batch, compare it with other batches of the same strain, and log how it felt.
