The short answer is Yes! All of our high quality, lab tested hemp products are federally legal.
The 2018 Farm Bill removed hemp from the federal list of controlled substances, effectively legalizing its cultivation and sale in the United States. It differentiated hemp from marijuana based on the THC content.
The Farm Bill allows for the interstate commerce of hemp and hemp products, meaning that states cannot prohibit the transportation of hemp or hemp products through their territory.
What is Hemp?
The 2018 Farm Bill defines hemp as the Cannabis sativa L. plant and any part of the plant, including the seeds and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.
All of our products come from licensed hemp producers; meet the 2018 Farm Bill standards; and are lab tested to ensure the highest quality.
What are Cannabinoids?
Cannabinoids are a class of chemical compounds that act on cannabinoid receptors in cells. These compounds are found primarily in the hemp plant, and they are known for their various effects on the human body, ranging from psychoactive to therapeutic benefits. There are over 120 known cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. Here's a more detailed look:
CBD (Cannabidiol): A non-psychoactive compound known for potential therapeutic benefits like reducing anxiety and pain.
THCA (Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid): THCA is the non-psychoactive precursor to THC found in raw and live hemp. While it doesn't produce psychoactive effects in its original state, it may have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. Under certain conditions, including heat, exposure to light, and time, it can convert to delta-9 THC, which does have an intoxicating effect. The conversion from THCa to delta-9 THC is known as “decarboxylation” and occurs when THCa flower is smoked or vaped.
Delta-9 THC (Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol): This is the primary psychoactive component of hemp. In hemp, Delta-9 THC levels are kept at or below 0.3%.
Delta-8 THC: Similar to Delta-9 THC but with slightly different chemical structures, Delta-8 THC is psychoactive but is typically less potent. It occurs in very small amounts in hemp plants.
CBN (Cannabinol): CBN is known primarily for its potentially therapeutic properties as a sleep aid. Some preliminary studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that it might help with sleep due to its sedative effects.
