The system is also messed up, because they tested it ahead of time and said it was fine only for that to turn out to not be true.

I have a sneaking suspicion their samples were taken prior to the plants being sprayed with myclobutanil.

The grower tested it and submitted the results. Slight but important difference.

Gotcha.

The state doesn't have the resources to have all testing in house. This self reporting is a very common practice in all agricultural practices across the state.

It sucks some people got sick but imagine the costs of weed if that needed to offset state employees doing all the testing at a state run lab.
