Delta 8 THC is a unique cannabinoid found in the hemp plant and is expanding in popularity nationwide with promising medical and recreational applications.

As of today 09/17/2021, Delta 8 THC is legal according to Virginia state law. Like the federal law, Virginia has legalized all derivatives, cannabinoids, and isomers of hemp including all tetrahydrocannabinols other than Delta 9 THC.

It's always interesting when states that are so far from each other share comparable laws. Like Delta 8 THC in Louisiana, Virginia has also taken a more reasonable look at hemp.

Cannabis Policy in Virginia

Virginia lawmakers recently approved a bill to decriminalize simple marijuana possession earlier this year, making possession of up to one ounce a civil penalty punishable by a $25 fine and no threat of jail time. Also under HB5058, police can no longer search your car because of the odor of marijuana. All of this is a good start on the road to legalization and we are excited to see what the future of Virginia’s Cannabis Industry has to hold.
