Total THC vs D9, Dry Weight % vs Total Cannabinoid %

So the title pretty much says it all, wondering how everyone is dealing with THC compliance for hemp in smokable form and in end products.

Can smokable flower be sold in all states? D9 compliance or total THC compliance?

From what I understand Oregon will soon be a total THC state, I heard a representative from the USDA speak at an expo a few months back in Portland it was sounding pretty bad from the farmers perspective.

Also wondering about end products and what everyone’s interpretation with the THC rules are.

If a product is 1,000 grams can you have more THC in it than a product that is 900 grams if they have the same amount of CBD?

Any thoughts/input would be greatly appreciated

Understood. Have done quite a few searches. It seems like everyone has their own interpretation, strange it wouldn’t be more set in stone

given the patchwork of regulations? And the differing interpretations of those rules from stakeholders on either side?!?

folks are turning hemp derived CBD into delta9 and selling it…some of them under advice from their lawyers that it’s legal.

nothing will be set in stone till we battle this out in the courts.
legislature makes laws
judiciary interprets laws

design a vape pen that isomerizes to d9 in the vapor path. is it legal?

Its not about how much total content, its the percentage. If you have 1000g of CBD dominant oil at .3%THC then its legal hemp extract.

If you somehow could fraction off 100g of CBD to make the same batch weigh 900g then you would have made the mix hot, u now need to dilute it with isolate, distillate, whatever works.

The easiest and most straightforward way to remediate is to dilute.

If u have 1% thc in a said volume, you dilute that volume with over 3.3x as much “cut” to bring the THC level down to less than .3%

Say you have 1g of oil (45% thc 45%CBD) u can make a legal retail product just by mixing up the batch properly.
Add 15g of something else (salve, tincture, brownies, carrier, etc) to bring it down to a legal level.

But now your CBD is also below .3% so you add in some CBD isolate to get the ratio back up - and voila you have remediated your oil simply by using math. And you dont need any expensive chromatography etc equipment
