Delta 9 Gummies

Hemp-derived Delta-9 edibles are legal on a federal level, so they can be purchased online and delivered over state lines as long as you’re 21 or older. Just make sure you double-check with your state laws as local regulations may vary. Hemp-derived Delta-9 is legal according to the 2018 Farm Bill, which legalized the hemp plant and all hemp-derived cannabinoids. Hemp is defined as cannabis with a 0.3% or lower concentration of Delta-9 THC on a dry-weight basis. If cannabis has a concentration of Delta-9 THC higher than this, it’s considered marijuana. So, all products that use hemp-derived Delta-9 THC within this threshold are compliant. No matter the amount of hemp-derived Delta-9 THC in a gummy, whether 5 milligrams or 100 milligrams, it’s allowed if it does not exceed a 0.3% dry-weight concentration limit.

Hemp-derived Delta-9 THC gummies work the same way that any other cannabis edible works. After ingestion, they pass through the digestive system and get absorbed into the bloodstream. From there, they interact with your body's endocannabinoid system (a vast network of chemical messengers and receptors) to produce various effects. Delta-9 primarily binds to the CB1 receptors in your central nervous system, explaining its psychoactive effects. However, it also binds to CB2 receptors to deliver body-focused relaxation. Cannabinoids affect everyone a bit differently, but generally, edibles like Delta-9 THC gummies have a slower onset of effects than other consumption methods, but with a longer duration of those effects. Basically, the effects take longer to "kick in," but when they do, they last much longer (several hours). Delta-9 is a psychoactive compound, which is a technical way of saying it affects your mind. Therefore, you can expect a variety of effects, including euphoria, relaxation, calmness, a sense of well-being, sleepiness, and even increased appetite. Please keep in mind that the effects of cannabinoids can vary from person to person and depend on the amount consumed and consumption method. No matter what potency you choose, we recommend starting with a modest serving size (roughly a quarter of the edible) and waiting for the effects to set in before increasing the amount, especially if you're new to THC.

Consuming too many D9 gummies (or too many milligrams in a single edible) can leave someone feeling overwhelmed. However, in terms of safety, hemp-derived Delta-9 THC will not put an adult consumer at risk for physical harm. For safety reasons, those enjoying hemp-derived Delta-9 THC gummies should not drive or operate any heavy machinery. Women who are pregnant, nursing, or trying to become pregnant should not take hemp-derived Delta-9 THC gummies. Consult your physician before introducing hemp products to your lifestyle.

Yes, Delta-9 gummies (whether legal or not) will most likely show up on a drug test. Whether the Delta-9 THC is derived from hemp (which is legal on a federal level) or marijuana (which is a controlled substance), the chemical formula is the same. It's the same cannabinoid and is processed by your body the same: your body produces something called THC metabolites to break down the Delta-9. This is what drug tests check for. Unfortunately, drug tests can't tell if you were breaking down legal or illegal Delta-9. So, we recommend abstaining from all hemp-derived cannabinoids if you have a drug test coming up.
