Not all cannabis is created equal.

If you’ve ever had flower that made you feel foggy, anxious, or just…off—there’s a good chance it wasn’t grown clean.

In New Mexico’s growing cannabis market, there’s more product than ever. But the truth is, many people still don’t know what clean cannabis actually means—or how to find it.

At The Memo, we believe you deserve to know exactly what you’re putting in your body. So here’s a quick, no-BS guide to choosing cannabis that’s clean, safe, and grown with purpose.

Why Pesticide-Free Cannabis Matters

Cannabis is medicine, even if you’re not using it “medically.”

And just like with food or supplements, the fewer harmful chemicals, the better.

Pesticides and fungicides used in some cannabis cultivation can leave residue in the final flower, which means you’re inhaling more than cannabinoids—you’re inhaling toxins. And your lungs deserve better.

That’s why we grow all of our flower without pesticides—ever.

What to Look for When Buying Cannabis in New Mexico

1. Ask for Test Results (aka COAs)

Any legal dispensary should have Certificates of Analysis for the products they sell. Look for:

  • Pesticide-free status
  • Microbial & heavy metal screening
  • Clear cannabinoid + terpene profiles

If they can’t show you a clean test, don’t buy it.

2. Know the Grow Method

Clean cannabis starts at the root.

At The Memo, we use precision hydroponics in a sealed indoor facility, so we can control every element—water, nutrients, airflow, lighting, temperature. That means no bugs. No dirt. No contamination. Just clean, consistent flower.

3. Trust the Brand, Not Just the Label

A THC number is nice, but it doesn’t tell the whole story.

Ask questions like:

  • Where was this grown?
  • Was it grown indoors or outside?
  • What makes this strain unique or clean?

Clean cannabis isn’t always the most advertised—it’s the most respected.

What Makes The Memo Different

We’re not in this to be trendy. We’re here to build trust.

At The Memo, we grow:

  • Small-batch, indoor flower
  • Pesticide-free, always
  • In a clean hydroponic system designed for total control and consistency
  • By people who care about what goes into it

Because clean cannabis shouldn’t be the exception. It should be the rule.

“We grow cannabis we’d feel good giving to our family. Because that’s what you are to us—community, not customers.”

— Ivy Masterson, Co-Founder of The Memo
