Thanks to a loophole in the 2018 Farm Bill, Delta 9 THC gummies are now legal to purchase online, similar to CBD products. However, with so many new hemp products put out seemingly daily, it can be a bit confusing as to what is legal in each state and what the difference between all of these products are. In order to understand the legality behind this loophole, we’re going to break down exactly what Delta-9 THC is and how some of these products have recently been legalized.

What Is Delta-9 THC?

Delta-9 THC is the primary psychoactive compound found in hemp and cannabis flower that provides users with the “high effect”. For years, Delta-9 has been illegal in most states, but thanks to a recent loophole found in the 2018 Farm Bill, Delta-9 gummies can now be purchased online and are legal in all 50 states. However, it’s important to note that this legality is solely based on the weight of a hemp product. Below we will break down how this loophole works and why Delta-9 THC gummies are now considered legal.

How Does This Loophole Work?

As mentioned above, weight plays a big role in deciding which Delta-9 products are legal. Typically, if Delta-9 THC stays below the 0.3% limit, then it is legal. This means that these products contain just trace amounts of THC, avoiding giving users the very “high” effect that stronger Delta 9 products typically provide. However, CBD and cannabis companies have discovered a way to work around this and it all comes down to the size and weight of gummy products.

If the gummy weighs more than four grams, then it is legally compliant to have 10 mg of Delta 9 THC. 10 mg is a standard dosage of Delta 9 THC, so this amount would provide users with the psychoactive “high” that Delta-9 THC products usually produce but are limited to states in which Delta 9 THC is fully legal.
