Higher percentage of California pot passing safety tests
By MICHAEL R. BLOOD, ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES Dec 16, 2018, 10:59 AM ET
California marijuana producers are seeing a higher percentage of buds, oils and other products clear strict safety tests.
Testing started in July saw about a 20 percent failure rate after the first two months.
Now it's down to 14 percent. State and industry officials say that shows businesses are adjusting to the regulated market.

Cannabis-infused cookies, candies and tinctures continued having the most trouble in test labs: About 25 percent were rejected, though that also was an improved rate compared to the July-August period, when one-third failed.
