Are they at the correct heat and light levels?

Check the different overlay views, sometimes you can overheat the plants or over humidify them.

are there information pages detailing the ideal growth scenarios
- what lighting, heating does Toasted need to meet level 3?

You should also check your dryer and cutting table to see if there at the right conditions because those affect the final product

Dryer is top tier , cutting tables are mid tier.
Trying to get the sales for the points to upgrade higher.

Do the University , Junkyard , and/or Pawnshop buy they products or am i just giving them those 'items' and taking the loss ?? i ask because it seems like they're paying in XP points and not money.

The drying rack must also have higher temp (dehumidifier not needed). I've seen my 3-star products drop to 1 as soon as they hit the drying rack without it.

To summarize for those looking at this post:
For 3 star toasted cannabis (the orange leaf)

> Use the overlays to make sure that each stage of production has the right temperature and level of light.
> each plant box must have the right amount of heat AND light.
> any drying racks or cutting tables that are allowed to process toasted have to be in the same temperature as the plant.

I would recommend pausing the game while you do this as moving any part of the setup means the workstation loses all current stock on it.

Super simple fix for anyone still googling this question. Just hover your mouse over the leaf and it will show you exactly what you need to get 3 star. Use overlays to help.
