Hemp delta-9 is legal in California, but AB 45 clarifies a lot of state law surrounding hemp products. Some important points established by the legislation include: making it so that adding industrial hemp to foods, beverages, dietary supplements and more doesn’t constitute “adulteration,” requiring a COA for any product sold, banning inhalable products until a tax structure can be implemented and applying the 0.3% THC by dry weight limit to any THC, effectively banning at least most delta-8 products on the market.

What’s Delta-9 THC?
Delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the primary psychoactive component of the cannabis plant. It is a naturally occurring compound that acts on specific cannabinoids receptors in the brain and body, leading to physiological effects such as increased heart rate and relaxation. THC has been studied extensively for its potential therapeutic benefits, including pain relief, anti-inflammatory effects, and neuroprotection. It can also be used recreationally to produce euphoric or sedative effects.

How to Dose Delta-9 THC Edibles
Keep in mind that dosage is going to be different for different people. Many things can play into dosage, like age, height, weight, gender, diet, and of course, cannabis use experience. The right dosage depends on many factors. Every THC product should have the mg dosage listed on the label.
Start with the lowest dose possible, see what happens, and then adjust as needed.
It's important to consult with your medical doctor before you consider CBD or THC products of any kind.
How long do cannabis edibles take to kick in?
When it comes to Delta 9 THC edibles, the golden rules are “start low and go slow.” Depending on factors like metabolism, GI issues, time of day eaten and more - edible effects can take anywhere from 20-60 minutes (or longer) to kick in. To minimize any potential mistakes due to overconsumption or underdosing - we recommend taking a low dose initially; if desired additional effects occur after 45-90 minutes have elapsed then further doses may be taken as needed.
Where to Buy Legal Delta 9 THC in California
CBD products are nearly everywhere: the grocery store, gas stations, direct marketing vendors, online, or even at the flea market. The FDA does not regulate delta-9 THC products. It’s important to research a company or vendor before purchasing their products.
- Avoid third-party distributors and only purchase directly from the manufacturer, when possible.
- Make sure the manufacturer posts Certificates of Analysis (COA) and other materials that show they are doing their due diligence as a reputable company to test each batch of products for legal compliance and quality.
- Avoid purchasing from street vendors, gas stations, or flea markets, as these types of businesses may mask less ethical business practices.
When it comes to buying Delta 9 THC products, it’s best to purchase from reputable companies with 3rd Party lab results. You should be able to read these lab reports on the company’s website.
