In 2018, Republicans accidentally legalized cannabis. Now 22 AGs want them to undo it
A coalition of 22 state attorneys general is calling on Congress to address “the glaring vagueness” that has led to legal cannabis products being sold over the counter across the country — including sometimes from vending machines or online.
A letter dated March 20 addresses the consequences of Republican lawmakers’ choice to legalize hemp production in the 2018 omnibus Farm Bill — a decision that perhaps inadvertently led to a multibillion-dollar market in intoxicating cannabis products that are arguably federally legal.
Now, the attorneys general want Congress to shutter the market it helped create. In the new Farm Bill, they want the legislature to enshrine in statute the idea that intoxicating cannabis is not federally legal — contrary to what the law currently states.
Possibly because I'm from a legal state and wasn't paying attention to it, but I'm not sure what you're talking about if you care to expound?
Look up thca. Essentially cannabis doesn’t have thc until it’s burned, which the law targets. It’s technically full of thca which is generally referred to as thc. So companies are selling thca products with tests showing thc itself below the 3% limit because it’s technically legal.
The total THC test is early enough that it isn't yet present. After that, only ∆9 is tested. It's all the same thca you would get in a dispensary. DEA asked courts to change the testing requirement and limits. Court said the law is written as intended. There are many farms that sell online through their own websites or through other vendors. I'm in Texas and I've had so much delivered without a single problem. I had 5 lb delivered to my porch in one order– it was in big plastic bags in boxes. That order was mostly CBD and CBG, but still smelled weedy. I'm more worried about the neighborhood kids stealing it than I am about the USPS or FedEx.
Thanks for the additional insight. The package thief paranoia with these boxes is real! Feel you there
I think people are still scared especially in states that have a hardon for locking up anyone that remotely does anything but otc drugs.
I’m not fully sure but believe this is a “if you want federal money then you’ll accept these terms” deal, sort of like how all states have to set the drinking age to 21 or lose out on highway money.
They don't make you feel the same way as the normal weed you are used to though. I have gotten them when I can't get the real stuff and it's just not the same. I wish it was.
I just got this and at 23% thca, it definitely works for me. https://eighthorseshemp.com/products/indoor-jungle-juice
DON'T SHARE THAT LINK!!
they already have problems keeping inventory and I'm selfish lmao
I know. I hesitated before I did it but then I felt guilty.... Sharing is caring.
We've had some delta-8 edibles that up the concentration so high it's silly. We were cutting them in half and that was getting us higher than some delta-9 stuff. Then we noticed that the bag actually recommends a whole one wtf. If those fucking things are legal, I don't know why we're arguing about the rest.
There's some new workarounds on the market that take it further. The law is that you can't have any more than 0.3% delta 9 by dry weight. Well, 10mg / 0.003 = 3.3g, so you can pack 10mg of delta9 into a gummy as long as its dry weight is about 3g, which isn't much.
Some of the THCa stuff has gotten me couch-lock high, but I agree with RagingRobot, the high doesn't feel the same. I've tried many different THCa/THCo, Delta 8, and Delta 10 products and the overarching trend with all of them was a high that typically only lasted 30 mins (compared to an hour with Delta 9) and they're almost always just an intense head high that makes me feel uncomfortably stuffy. I haven't had a single non-delta 9 product that felt anything close to the more natural high's you get from the various types/blends of Delta 9.
Thca=∆9. I avoid the rest (∆8, 10, etc.) because of the chemicals used in processing.
Have you tried THCjd? It tends to be more potent. If anything, it needs to be brought back a little on some of the gummies out there.
I agree it’s not one to one, but I’ve questioned how much if that is the drying, curing and process of getting it to me. Also they used boveda packs which didn’t help. The ones I’ve tried. But I think the post saying it’s due to an early chop sounds right. Probably not enough amber crystals which is when I would assume actual thc gets tested. It’s more complex than I made it seem I’m sure but I think as far as the loophole goes its along those lines. On a related note I’ve been trying thca concentrates and that is definitely more comparable, which makes me think it’s how they’re processing the flower that makes a difference.
Republicunts did not read or maybe comprehend a bill they passed during the Trump years which accidentally legalized THC products derived from hemp or products that technically are hemp and not cannabis because the delta 9 THC concentration is low enough.
From my also limited understanding cannabis can be harvested early before the delta 9 thc crystals form... from the precursor THCa already present in the plant
THCa on its own is not psychoactive however it breaks down into normal THC when exposed to sunlight ... or heat when you smoke/vape it
So you can buy legal (for now) basically weed in the form of high thca flower online and have it shipped to your mailbox.
Im considering anonymously buying some online and having it shipped to my states AG office because fuck that dude needs to smoke some weed
I believe the ones who knew, knew; and the rest didn't read it.
