All Cannabis Is Not Created Equal
Whether novice or connoisseur, knowing how to assess cannabis flower quality is key to having the best possible experience. The S.T.A.T.S. method (Sight, Touch, Aroma, Taste, Sensation) is a five-step process for identifying high quality, remarkable flower, not unlike the multi-step process for evaluating wine. The guide can help consumers evaluate essential aspects of the flower in order to make the most informed and satisfying purchasing decisions.
SEEING IS BELIEVING
Seeing the flower can sometimes be the only evaluation option prior to purchase. It is important to know the visual cues to identify remarkable cannabis. Aspects of the flower to examine are: trichome content, color, structure, size and trim.
Trichome Content
The abundance of trichomes on the flower is an indication of high quality cannabis. Tiny crystal-like resin glands covering the flower contain the flavor and aromatic components of cannabis as well the cannabinoids. The most common cannabinoids are THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (Cannabidiol). Trichomes can make the flower appear crystallized or “frosty” and glisten in the light. There’s an unknown amount of cannabinoids in a trichome.
The broad life cycle of a trichome: The color from clear to amber illustrates age and can affect the cannabinoid profile. This can provide different effects.
Size & Shape
Size and shape do not matter. Variety in size of the flower is a good sign. It is difficult to determine high quality purely from size, shape and density due to the characteristics of many different flower strains.
Trim Of The Flower
Size and shape do not matter. Variety in size of the flower is a good sign. It is difficult to determine high quality purely from size, shape and density due to the characteristics of many different flower strains.
Color
Color is one of the most noticeable traits of a healthy cannabis flower. An abundance of trichomes can make the flower look silver-grey to white. When stigma (hairs) are present on the flower they can range from a light yellow to a deep reddish hue.
RED FLAGS
Powdery Mildew
Mildew can be mistaken for trichomes to the untrained eye, but there are visual differences: Mildew is whiter and doesn’t glisten in the light. Can look like baby powder versus sugar crystals. Mildew has a cottony, web-like appearance under a microscope.
Seeds
Mature seeds are brown with black “watermelon stripes”, whereas young seeds are a light green or grey in color. Calyx are often confused for seeds, however a calyx is actually a structure that encloses and forms a protective layer around the flower
Mold/Botrytis

Pests
Pests that have infested the flower can leave webbing or appear as little black specks
Spider mites: It is brown or grey decay on or inside the flower. Mold typically develops from the inside out. You may crack the flower open to see the brown or grey decay/rot/mold starting from the stem outward. Fungus gnats/fruit flies – Small gnats will appear blac
Yellow Stamens or "Bananas"
Yellow stamens or “bananas” are a sign of unstable genetics, which can be an indicator of plant stress. Stamens appear when the plant hermaphrodites, developing both male and female flowers.
Human or Animal Hair
An obvious red flag is the presence of human or animal hair found in cannabis.
