Colorado has also legalized recreational marijuana use. This means you can purchase any cannabis product, including hemp-derived ones and those that contain Delta 9 THC.
Some may not know the difference between hemp and marijuana, so let’s simplify it. Hemp contains THC concentrations of 0.3% or less on a dry weight basis. On the other hand, marijuana contains more than 0.3% THC concentrations on a dry weight basis.

Over 100 cannabinoids can be derived from hemp. Some of the most sought after hemp-derivatives are CBD, Delta-8, and Delta-9.
Delta-9 is a form of tetrahydrocannabinol aka “THC.” Most of the time, when THC is mentioned by itself, people are referring to Delta-9. Delta-9 is known for having several desirable properties and effects which we will discuss in the next section.

It’s important to note that THC affects each person differently. And effects can further vary when Delta-9 edibles are paired with other cannabinoids such as CBD and minor cannabinoids with our Select Spectrum line. We recommend that if you are trying Delta-9 for the first time, take a small amount. If you feel that it is not enough, you can increase how much you take next time.
Delta-9 is generally safe when used in moderation. Remember, you should never operate a vehicle or any type of machinery after consuming Delta-9 or other products containing THC.
When it comes to physical danger, you don’t have much to worry about. However, some people have said they felt “overwhelmed” upon taking too much. This is one of many reasons why we recommend starting with a small amount and increasing how much you take as needed.
When experimenting with Delta-9, keep moderation in mind. If you think you’ve accidentally taken too much, we recommend doing something to calm your mind. If you need some ideas, you can read a book, go for a relaxing walk, or take a long nap.
The legalization of recreational marijuana or “weed” has made buying Delta 9 in Colorado quite simple.
However, some people prefer a more discreet option when purchasing these kinds of products. If this sounds like you, then we have good news. You can legally buy Delta 9 products online in Colorado. All you have to do is choose your hemp-derived product, enter your debit or credit card information, and wait for it to appear at your doorstep.
