To better understand the recent changes in New York’s new cannabis laws, we’ve created this short guide for you.

Delta 8 THC is legal on a federal level, thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill. Although delta 9 THC is still currently illegal under federal law, it’s legal for medical and recreational use in the state of Oregon.

Here’s everything you need to know about buying delta 8 in Oregon.

Can delta 8 THC cause you to fail a drug test? After all, it’s a type of THC molecule.

In this article, we dive into the chemistry of delta 8 THC and its effects on workplace drug tests.

Delta 8 THC edibles refer to any edible form of the supplement. The most common is delta 8 THC-infused gummy candies, but also refers to delta 8 honey, delta 8 chocolates, baked goods, and much more.

Edibles are, by far, one of the fastest-growing segments of the cannabis industry as a whole.

As we’ve seen already from the CBD industry — already several ears ahead of the delta 8 industry — edibles are exceptionally popular. They’re by far the best tasting, they make dosing super simple, and they’re easy to share with others in the post-pandemic world where sharing joints, or vape pens is no longer cool.

What’s not to love about a delicious edible?

Historically, cannabis laws were pretty straightforward — if it looks like cannabis, smells like cannabis, or acts like cannabis, it’s illegal.

On August 2, 1937, all forms of marijuana were considered illegal in the United States. This law remained unchallenged until 1996 when California legalized medical marijuana for the first time. This was controversial at the time and created some contradictions in the law. Marijuana was illegal federally but legal on a state level.

Since then, just about every state has adopted new laws allowing the use of marijuana for medical purposes. Even more recently, some states have chosen to legalize marijuana for recreational use too.

Today, the regulations surrounding cannabis is full of loopholes, contradiction, and confusion. Unfortunately, the adoption of delta 8 THC by the mainstream did nothing to make things simpler — and, if anything, have made things even more confusing.

The entourage effect is a term used to describe a phenomenon that makes the effects of cannabinoids stronger when in the presence of terpenes or other cannabinoids.

This concept has been found throughout the plant kingdom — most commonly referred to as synergy.

The basic principle is that the effects of the whole are greater than the sum of their parts. In other words, combining terpenes with cannabinoids doesn’t just add to the benefits — it multiplies them.

This is a question we get asked quite a lot — is it better to use delta 8 THC in the morning or later on in the evening?

The truth is that delta 8 can be used at any point in the day and offer benefits — but there are a few caveats here on what dose is best to use in the morning, noon, or evening to get the best results.

Delta 8 THC is legal in North Carolina.

Under both state and federal law, the cannabinoid can produce, distribute, possess, and consume. However, there are a few restrictions in place that delta distributors and consumers must abide by.

Delta 9 THC (the psychoactive cannabinoid in marijuana) is currently banned under North Carolina state law, and users could face penalties for possession. However, it could become legal in the near future, thanks to a new bill.

This article will look into the laws and regulations surrounding delta 8 THC, hemp, and cannabis in North Carolina.

Delta 8 THC occurs naturally in the cannabis plant. But there’s just one problem — the average delta 8 THC concentration is so low it’s virtually undetectable. Marijuana plants have the most delta 8 THC, but concentrations rarely exceed 1%.

For comparison, the delta 9 THC concentration in the average marijuana plant is closer to 15%. This is because, for every 15 molecules of delta 9, there’s 1 molecule delta 8 THC (or less).

However, when placed under the right conditions, other cannabinoids go through isomerization to become delta 8 THC. Manufacturers facilitate this process to produce large quantities of delta 8 THC.

Here’s how it works.
