What is Toque?

Potency — measured vs. reported
Lab-measured: ~21 mg/g (2024) → ~29 mg/g (2025) total alkaloids.
Reliable lab data exists for only a handful of strains. We separate lab-measured values from community claims and don't inflate — growing conditions affect potency more than the strain name.
