Quality Testing Costs for LP

Roll it up, light it up, smoke it up. QA done that took like 5 minutes.

Don't leave us hanging here bro, tell us your secret lol.

I'm going to have to look it up in the European Pharmacopeia but I'm going to guess that using near-infrared spectrometry (which QuantaCann uses) won't cut it for the HC guidelines. You'll have to use established and verified methods. PM me if you wish and I can help you out.

Seems like you'd be missing some of the required testing for molds and such. A lab more like halent.com, if it were in Canada, would probably be more like what the regs are calling for.

Good info, thx. Only $120 per sample too, now that's more like it.

Is the MMPR going to be profitable? Everything people are mentioning as for costs are through the roof. And to only be able to ship 5grams at a time? HC predicts prices between 8-10$ a gram.Most expensive thing is going to be labour and the cost of doing this full time. Personally I would wait to start such a venture. No one knows the success rate of licenses after inspection. They want you to be completely 100% up and running minus the plants(security, electrical and plumbing, food grade mix vats and employees) is just wayyy too much in my books. If HC was half smart I'd believe that they would only allow a certain amount per 25-50km, that would just make sense to me. At the end of the day you have too invest a lot of time and money to something that may never actually happen but fuck it I'd run the grow a couple cycles anyways if I was denied lol

Anyone can qualify as a QA. The LP can be the QA. You need to come up with a set of standard operating procedures that ensures the quality of product being produced. I spoke with Health Canada and even having something like a food production back ground would qualify. Sanitization procedures, chemicals used, how equipment is cleaned, how often cleaning is done. What bacteria pose a threat and how they're being prevented etc. This is about running a operation that is organized.

I hope your right about the qa. But I remember reading in the outline that the lp can't be the qa cause it could be bias. As where if I were the lp and qa I could fuck everything up and still say it passed. Heath Canada also quantum would be handling most of the testing

I looked it up in gonna call health Canada to see if I qualify as a QA with a horticulture background from guelph. I'm certified so I don't see why not. It's just hard to see them give a libcense out when you are the LP RP and QA. Just seems dodgy lol

I specifically asked health Canada if the LP SPIC can also be the QA. The answer is YES.

this sites certifies QA's but you have to register for the 1st part then in a year you can become a QA (i guess) u cant just tell Health Canada you want to become a QA with no qualifications.
