THC...THC...Can you quantify it? How?

[TinkTHC]

How can you quantify how much THC is on your plant and in your plant? There has to be a way. I think it’s a mathematical equation or statistical equation. But I can’t remember!!!At one point I knew how to calculate the % of a compound in a chemical but a bird stole that memory! Is there another way? Visual examination what am I looking for? I know there’s a simple way and each strain is different of course. How was it done way back n the day????

I know for RSO, each gram is equal to 1000mg. If the RSO is 45% THC and 45% CBD, you have 450mg of both in that 1 gram. In a 100mg dose of that, you have 45mg of THC and 45mg of CBD.

I'm not sure with flower if they actually measure the cannabinoid content versus the dry weight. The buds are not a cannabinoid, the trichome heads are. That is what I believe they are getting the 27%THC numbers from.
