Is Delta 9 Legal to Buy in New York?

As of this writing, you can buy Delta 9 in New York. Hemp is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Most states have followed this bill and have legalized all derivatives, cannabinoids, extracts, and isomers derived from hemp. New York legalized Delta-9 for a wider use when they permitted the growth, sale, and distribution of hemp products in March 2020. Hemp is cannabis with a 0.3% or less concentration of Delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis.

Then New York became the 15th state to legalize recreational marijuana. Marijuana is cannabis with a 0.3% or higher concentration of Delta-9 THC. Governor Andrew Cuomo signed Senate Bill S854A in April 2021. Under this bill, it allows the sale of cannabis and home cultivation.

In New York, you cannot have ‘weed’ shipped because marijuana is federally illegal. However, hemp products can be shipped, allowing you to purchase Delta 9 THC online in New York.

You must be 21 years or older to buy cannabis products in New York.

Here are sections on Delta-9 THC in Senate Bill S854A:

What’s Delta 9 THC?

There are over 100 different cannabinoids in hemp, and maybe more to be discovered. Today, the top three most sought after cannabinoids are:

  • Delta 9
  • Delta 8
  • CBD

Delta 9 THC (Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) is a natural cannabinoid found in hemp and marijuana plants. Many people assume hemp contains more Delta-8 THC than Delta-9 THC, but that statement is false. The truth is Delta-9 is more prominent in hemp than Delta-8.

Delta 9 THC has a double-bond located on the ninth carbon chain. The location of the bond is a determining factor in how the cannabinoid binds to your receptors, resulting in the effects.

What Are the Effects of Delta 9 THC?

Each experience someone has with hemp is different. Many factors can encourage a delightful experience or can affect how the effects feel. Cannabis connoisseurs have reported feeling:

  • Euphoric
  • Uplifted
  • Motivated
  • Calm

We know what you are thinking—this is too good to be true. While these effects may happen to you, your experience can be affected by: the dosage, tolerance, and environment. If you aren’t aware of your tolerance, start with a small dose and patiently wait for the effects. A small dose will allow you to measure your tolerance and find the ideal dose for you.

When consuming hemp-derived Delta 9 gummies, make sure you are in a comfortable and safe environment. Trust us. There is no better way to enjoy THC than being snuggled up on the couch with a nostalgic movie playing in the background.
