In this way, you can achieve CBD isolation in a matter of weeks rather than months and be well on your way to growing a verified garden of CBD-rich cannabis at the beginning of this season.\u00a0 Performing this type of testing includes taking the top couple of nodes of the plant as a sample.\u00a0 This sample should be dried before it is submitted to the lab for analysis.<\/div>\n<div>In this way, you can achieve CBD isolation in a matter of weeks rather than months<br \/>\nand be well on your way to growing a verified garden of CBD-rich cannabis at<br \/>\nthe beginning of this season.\u00a0 Performing this type of testing includes taking the top couple of nodes of the plant as a sample.\u00a0 This sample should be dried before it is submitted to the lab for analysis.<\/div>\n<div>If you would like to take advantage of this unique testing program\u00a0you may bring your sample to one of our regional drop-off locations.\u00a0 Find the drop-off location nearest you by checking our <a title=\"Pure Analytics Services\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pureanalytics.net\/services\" target=\"_blank\">Services <\/a><\/div>\n<div>page or by contacting us at 888.505.7108 or <a href=\"mailto:info@pureanalytics.net\">info@pureanalytics.net<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"><span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> <span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"><span style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With spring drawing near it is a good time to start planning your garden. \u00a0Many patients are interested in growing CBD-rich cannabis for their cannabis therapy regimen.\u00a0 CBD, Cannabidiol, is a cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant usually in low levels, but sometimes at levels well over 10%.\u00a0 It has unique therapeutic benefits, which differ [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_s2mail":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[6,4],"tags":[24,32,31,33],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=93"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":104,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/93\/revisions\/104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=93"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=93"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pureanalytics.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=93"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
