In its preferred embodiment, the present invention consists of a color chart pallet. The color chart pallet component of the present invention will be come from a very light color (lowest THC level) to a very dark color (highest THC level). The numbers will also correspond with the color spectrum. The lighter the color on the color chart pallet, the lower the number range, and correspondingly, the darker the color on the color chart pallet, the higher the number range.

18%-23% THC	Darkest Color Shade
12%-17% THC	Medium Color Shade
6%-11% THC	Light Color Shade
1%-5%	Lightest Color Shade

In its preferred embodiment, the process of the present invention is accomplished by adding a small amount of a scientifically blended substance called reagent. Ther reagent substance will then be added to the small trace amount of Marijuana in a small vial with a sealable cap. Once both the Marijuana sample and the reagent come in contact with each other, the liquid will then begin to change color after a few seconds. The final color will correspond to both a range of numbers and a color that can be found on the original packaging.

In its preferred embodiment, the present invention contains a sealable cap, a vial for testing, a reagent capsule and a color and number based potency chart included in the packaging, all seen in FIG. 1. The user follows process of the present invention by first add the Marijuana sample to the vial, replace the cap, break the inner capsule and then shake the device. The user then matches the color with the corresponding color and number in the chart.

This testing method can be done as soon as trace amounts of Tetrahydrocannabinoid (THC) start showing up on marijuana plants in the growing process, the harvesting process, and finally at the dispensary for final sale. In addition to marijuana plants, any by product of marijuana that contains the substance Tetrahydrocannabinoid (THC) can also be tested for its potency. In its preferred 10 embodiment, the present invention packaging may include several test kits.

Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
