4. Strain names travel, quality doesn't always

Same strain name in a different state will not guarantee the same experience. Each state has its own growers, testing rules and curing practices. GG4 in Washington can feel a bit different from GG4 in Oregon or Michigan because every producer has their own phenotype and growing style.

You will usually get the same general profile, but potency, aroma and effects can shift more than people expect. If you cross state lines, check the producer more than the strain name because that is where the real consistency comes from.
