If this intrigues you, hang with us as we dive into the world of hemp, legalities, and all you need to know about buying Delta 9 in Delaware.
Most people have questions about hemp law, especially this one – is Delta 9 legal in Delaware?
As of this writing, Delta 9 and other cannabinoids derived from hemp are legal in Delaware. In 2018, the 2018 Farm Bill was passed, which federally legalized hemp. Since then, Delaware has been one of the many states to legalize hemp production. Under Title 3-Chapter 28, hemp cultivation and hemp products are legal.
According to the 2018 Farm Bill and Delaware law, you can buy Delta 9 products online in Delaware, as long as the product follows federal guidelines. A hemp product can contain Delta 9 concentrations at 0.3% or less on a dry weight basis. If the concentration surpasses the limit, it will be characterized as “weed”, which is federally illegal and illegal in Delaware.
Below are highlights of Title 3-Chapter 28 and Title 16:
Definitions:
(2) “Industrial hemp” means the plant Cannabis sativa L.and any part of such plant, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.
Definitions:
(28) “Marijuana” means all parts of the plant Cannabis sativa L., whether growing or not, the seeds thereof, the resin extracted from any part of the plant, and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of the plant, its seeds or resin. It does not include the mature stalks of the plant, fiber produced from the stalks, oil or cake made from the seeds of the plant, or any other compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture or preparation of the mature stalks (except the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil or cake, or the sterilized seed of the plant which is incapable of germination. Marijuana does not include products approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.
(d) Any material, compound, mixture or preparation which contains any quantity of the following hallucinogenic substances, their salts, isomers and salts of isomers, unless specifically excepted, whenever the existence of these salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible within the specific chemical designation:
(19) Any material, compound, combination, mixture, synthetic substitute or preparation which contains any quantity of marijuana or any tetrahydrocannabinols, their salts, isomers or salts of isomers and is not approved for use by the US Food and Drug Administration;
In the last few years, the cannabis industry has exploded across the country, so there is no surprise if you are familiar with the terms CBD, Delta 8 THC, and Delta-9 THC. The compounds listed are the three most in-demand cannabinoids that can be derived from hemp.
Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is a naturally occurring cannabinoid in cannabis plants. This compound is well-known for its appearance in marijuana. However it can also be found in hemp.
It is difficult to determine all of the effects Delta-9 edibles can bring on because the list is endless. However, we have gathered a list of common effects that enthusiasts have reported feeling:
As exciting as these effects are, keep in mind that your own experience might differ. To encourage the ideal experience, we recommend preparing your environment and starting small. Our Delta-9 gummies, cereal bars, and other treats are delicious, but keep in mind that moderation is key.
Lastly, plan ahead and make sure your environment is safe and fits your needs. We recommend trying hemp-derived Delta-9 with a small group of friends in an environment you are familiar with.
Although Delta 8 is an isomer of Delta 9, they offer different experiences. From a quick view, these compounds have a nearly identical chemical makeup, but they have a huge difference when you take a closer look.
Delta 8 and Delta 9 both have a chemical bond, but where the bond is located separates these compounds. Delta 8 has a double bond located on the eighth carbon chain, and Delta 9 has a double bond located on the ninth carbon chain. As slight as this difference may seem, it affects how your body reacts to the cannabinoid.
It has been reported that Delta 8 can offer less acute effects compared to Delta-9, but remember, your experience may be different.
As long as the Delta-9 is derived from hemp and follows state guidelines, you can buy it in Delaware. You must be 21 years or older to purchase hemp products online or in person.
Some of the hemp-derived Delta-9 products that we offer to customers include our Select Spectrum and Live Rosin lines. Select Spectrum features a 1:1 ratio of CBD to hemp-derived Delta-9 along with minor cannabinoids to encourage the entourage effect. Our Live Rosin edibles are naturally flavored and come in a variety of strains and main cannabis subsets.
Ordering with Hometown Hero is as easy as typing in your debit or credit card and having your selection of products discreetly placed at your door. Shopping for hemp products has never been easier!
Delta 9 is generally safe when used safely and responsibly. There is very little threat of physical danger. If you have a busy day ahead of you, it may not be the right time to take Delta-9 because once you consume THC, you cannot drive a vehicle or operate heavy machinery.
Remember, always start small to avoid feeling “overwhelmed” or intense sensations. If you feel that you consumed too much hemp-derived Delta-9, there is no need to stress. You are in no physical danger, and the effects will slowly fade away over a couple of hours. In the meantime, the best thing you can do is to keep your mind occupied. We recommend watching a show, reading a book, or listening to music.
