Clones are often completely dipped in pesticides and when the bud matures, they can fail the mandatory testing, costing a grower big $$$, or even their entire business... and no way are they going to pay $400 to have each clone tested, they want assurance that wont cost them much = 7X Pure

According to a recent report from California cannabis testing lab Steep Hill, much of the state’s widespread pesticide problem can actually be traced back to clones. In October of 2016, Steep Hill shocked the state with a report that estimated that 84% of California cannabis wasn’t “fit for human consumption.”

Of 124 total clones tested for potentially dangerous pesticides, only 17 contained no detectable residues. Only 22% of all clones passed muster under California’s cannabis pesticide thresholds, which are stricter than nearby Oregon’s.

...and the state is about to get even more strict on the allowable limits.

The report added that many growers don’t consider early application of pesticides, either in the clone’s soil or by dipping the clone in a pesticide solution, to be a risk. Cannabis “lore,” it says, holds that four to five generations of plants is enough to flush out any residual pesticides.
