Maybe?:

con = psycopg2.connect("dbname=production host=localhost user=postgres", 
cursor_factory=DictCursor)
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute("select * from cell_per")

the_dict = cur.fetchall()

# Example 1

for row in the_dict:
     for fld in row:
         print(fld)

# Return just field values
...

HERB 3.5
19
None
2020-09-22 17:34:31
None
postgres
herb
none
HR3

#Example 2

for row in the_dict:
     for fld in dict(row):
         print(fld, row[fld])

Showing the field name and field value.

ts_update 2020-09-22 17:34:31
