In recent years, there has been a significant surge in the popularity of cannabis products, as consumers increasingly seek alternative wellness solutions. Alongside this trend, the legal status of various cannabis compounds has evolved, prompting us to delve into the complex legal landscape surrounding cannabis.

At GREY MEDZ, we predominantly utilize hemp-derived THCa (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) in our flowers and vape cartridges. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), THCa is non-psychoactive in its natural state and only becomes intoxicating when heated, a process known as decarboxylation. Our other products, such as edibles and concentrates, typically contain hemp-derived Delta-8 THC and/or Delta-9 THC. While these compounds are psychoactive, they differ in their molecular structures, leading to varied effects and potencies. Commercially available Delta-8 THC is often derived from hemp through a chemical conversion process from CBD.

Importantly, products containing THCa, Delta-8 THC, and Delta-9 THC are federally legal, thanks to the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, commonly known as the Farm Bill. This legislation removed hemp, defined as cannabis with less than 0.3% THC by dry weight, from the list of controlled substances. Delta-8 THC is also explicitly mentioned in the 2018 Farm Bill as a legal hemp-derived compound. Thus, products adhering to Farm Bill criteria can be legally shipped to most states in the US.

All GREY MEDZ cannabis is ethically sourced from small-scale US hemp farms operated by experienced growers who prioritize pesticide-free cultivation practices. These dedicated growers have developed proprietary varieties over years of cultivation, ensuring consistently high-quality products.

While hemp-derived products enjoy federal legality, it's essential to recognize that state laws may vary. Some states may have more lenient regulations, while others impose stricter restrictions or bans on certain cannabis-derived products.

Regarding travel within the US, the legality of carrying cannabis products hinges on state-by-state regulations. It's imperative to research and understand the laws of your destination and any states you may pass through. Generally, products derived from hemp with 0.3% THC or less are permissible if they comply with both federal and state laws. However, carrying any cannabis product with THC exceeding 0.3% is federally illegal, regardless of state legalization.

Given the rapidly evolving legal landscape, navigating cannabis regulations can be challenging. At GREY MEDZ, we remain dedicated to staying abreast of these changes and collaborating with experts to ensure our products meet all regulatory requirements, providing customers with high-quality, federally legal cannabis.
