The 1.585 kg, the vape oil and the gummies are described as herbs and products with characteristics similar to or apparently containing cannabis; no laboratory confirmation was reported.

The published figures do not give the number of cigarettes, gummies or the three vape count as separate cannabis weights; those counts are only in the text.
