How Cinder Cares Works

 

Scientist Testing Cannabis in Lab at Confidence Analytics

Every month, we purchase samples from our inventory and send them to Confidence Analytics for evaluation. At the lab, they test for mycotoxins, pesticides, heavy metals, and other matter to ensure that you’re getting clean products. They also test the cannabinoid & terpene content of every product we send. This tells us things like the percentage of CBD & THC present in each product. When samples come back matching the label, we celebrate! These products pass Cinder Cares because what is on the label is truly what you’re getting in the package. When samples return disputing their label, we first try to problem-solve with the producer. Often in the agricultural industry, the issues are unknown to the producers or can be resolved by simply applying a new, more detailed label. However, if we cannot fix the problem, the product will no longer be on Cinder shelves.

Why We Do Cinder Cares

 

Cinder Cares Logo

 

Here at Cinder, we had many questions and very few answers. As a result, we knew it was time to find a solution. Cinder believes in transparency. We know that as a customer, you should have access to easy-to-obtain and straightforward information about the products you buy. Due to a lack of state regulations regarding pesticide usage and product testing, we’ve decided to take it into our own hands to protect our customers and ensure accurate information is shared. We value the relationship of cannabis in our lives and promise to do our best to provide safe products for you every time you purchase from us.

Next up on our list of brands that have passed Cinder Cares is Torus. At Torus, they take a different approach to cultivating cannabis. Deep Water Culture hydroponics eliminates soil and lets them control every aspect of the plant’s environment. This method allows them to grow with precision, delivers nutrients directly to the roots, and conserves water. As a result, they produce cleaner cannabis that’s free from contaminants and grown sustainably. They also believe that great plants start with a curated genetic selection and proper growing techniques. This is why each of their plants is grown in a water-based system where nutrients are delivered directly to the roots. This approach allows for the plants to thrive, ensuring every strain reaches its full potential through constant monitoring and adjustments.

When it comes to harvesting, the team at Torus is careful and deliberate. Every flower is hand-trimmed to protect its trichomes. This preserves the plant’s potency, aroma, and effects. The attention to detail during the harvest ensures that what’s picked is just as rich and flowerful when it reaches you. Once it comes time to process, everything happens in-house. This ensures control and consistency. Handling everything under one roof allows for complete supervision, ensuring that the final product meets high standards.
