The governor just left VAâs rec market to the unregulated tobacco shops that already serve a lot of users/patients in the state instead. They raided a lot of the popups away but they exist with a much smaller crowd today. Most of the rec work whether it be flower extracts or vapes is moved as THCa at tobacco shops so the governor just left VA rec market to the people to figure out.
You can grow up to 4, if youâre to grow inside the police cannot search your home for the odor they canât search your home for even seeing you grow in your home as far as I remember the previous liberal governor pushed all these executive orders through to make sure people dont get caught in the ambiguity of the laws.
Any amount of marijuana found in your home you have an affirmative defense for possessing due to the fact that you could be growing for a while and just be building up inventory since you canât sell it. Possession in public was (may have changed) up to 1oz. Anything over 1oz-3.99oz is a citation, 4oz-1lb is a misdemeanor. Hashish was redefined by executive order to be considered the same legally as -flower marijuana. And again any personal possession at home by adults 21+ is not subject to penalty.
To grow more than 4 there was a number where itâs still just a civil violation
5-10 plants - Civil violation
11-49 plants - Class 1 misdemeanor
50+ plants - Felony
With all those protections itâs interesting seeing the rec market vetoed by the new governor especially when heâs concerned with âdispensaries opening up on every cornerâ and instead we have 2-3 tobacco shops at every corner and shopping centers and the only reason they are open and profitable is because they sell all the âTHCa hempâ / âhemp derived d9â products to anyone who comes through. Very unregulated, and many of the shop owners have no idea what they are buying and reselling to the public and since he vetoed the rec market these stores will thrive where they wouldnât have if he had passed the bill.

The proposed committee substitute for HB3361 modifies pre-packaging requirements for all medical marijuana flower, trim, shake, kief, and other flower-based products not classified as concentrates and sold by licensed processors and growers to licensed dispensaries. Products must be sold in packages ranging in size from one-half (1/2) gram to three (3) ounces.
Nonopaque packaging materials are permissible, provided all other packaging and labeling regulations are
adhered to and the product is placed in an opaque container before leaving the dispensary. Displaying and smelling medical marijuana are permitted.

Interesting read, but if youâre going to post one-offs to make your account seem more credible, please use whatever news thread corresponds with your story. Nothing pertaining to a licensed operation in the above.

Future predictions (not legal advice)
Farm bill removes intoxicating hemp loophole, clarifies used for fiber etc
Which encourages states to follow suit who havenât already .
Dea moves to schedule 3, which opens interstate, international exportation, as well as full intellectual property protection . These benefits encourage the major players in the state licensed game to jump through the federal loopholes. Expect this to be where most of the market is captured, those who canât afford this step our going to be left to there individual state markets.
DEAs rescheduling will end up placing massive pressure on the individual state laws and regulations. Expect most states to follow suit off of the rip, the few stragglers (who leave home grow or other aspects our federal reserve masters disagree with ) will be corrected through federal pressure. Withholding of funds, etc the same way they did when pushing underage drinking laws.

Schedule III doesnât open interstate or international exportation - that would first require that someone (anyone really!) jump through the FDAs hoops for IND and NDA - get an approved drug and then transfer that monograph to other countries (only Sativex is approved cannabis drug in other places, beside standard flower stuff in the EU). The patent is already held for these products (sublingual) plus many of the others (by the US government of all peopleâŚ)
There is no change to current state markets due to changing to Schedule III - all products in state medical and adult use markets continue to be illegal and its now trafficking in a schedule III drug but still trafficking. All programs continue to be illegal (including all the hemp ones, because FDA says no cannabis derived stuff).
You donât have to wonder about this now - as you can now read the draft.
From my reading - they did not remove any intoxicating products - but instead created an easier path for industrial hemp farmers (less testing and such).
So I suppose this will continue to leave it up to the states and tribes (which was the original text/plan) and those that donât opt in, but also donât opt out, will continue to be under the USDA rules. So weâll probably continue to see FDA warning letters and the like - because there is nothing their that says that hemp derived cannabinoids can be put into FD&C stuff still.
Such is life!
