Cannabis products have seen a surge in popularity as people seek alternative wellness options. With this rise, the legal status of different cannabis compounds has become increasingly important. In this guide, we’ll delve into the legal aspects of cannabis, explaining why certain products are federally legal and can be shipped to most states across the U.S.
Most of our flowers and vape cartridges are made from hemp-derived THCa (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid), a non-psychoactive compound naturally present in cannabis. In its raw form, THCa doesn’t produce the typical “high” associated with THC. However, when exposed to heat (such as lighting a joint), THCa transforms into THC through a process called decarboxylation, which creates the psychoactive effect.
Our other products, like edibles and concentrates, primarily contain hemp-derived Delta-8 THC and Delta-9 THC, which are chemically related to THCa. While both are psychoactive, their molecular differences cause distinct effects and potencies. These cannabinoids are present in both marijuana and hemp plants.
Absolutely! The legal basis for hemp-derived products, including those with THCa, Delta-8 THC, and Delta-9 THC, stems from the 2018 Agriculture Improvement Act, or the Farm Bill. This bill removed hemp (defined as cannabis with less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight) from the Controlled Substances Act, differentiating it from marijuana.
Hemp-derived products that meet the Farm Bill's criteria are federally legal and can be shipped to most states. There are strict guidelines around hemp cultivation, which must be done by licensed growers following state, tribal, or federal laws. Companies like Vibe are required to rigorously test their products to ensure they comply with these regulations.
While hemp-derived products are federally legal, state laws can vary widely. Some states have more relaxed regulations, while others impose stricter limits or even outright bans on certain cannabis products.
The legality of traveling with cannabis products depends on individual state regulations. Before traveling, it’s crucial to research the laws of your destination and any states you’ll pass through. As a general rule:

Fact check: The legality of our hemp-derived products—including those with THCa, Delta-8 THC, and Delta-9 THC come from the 2018 Farm Bill. This bill allows hemp products with no more than 0.3% dry weight of Delta-9 THC to be legal. Delta-8 THC is also legal because it is a hemp-derived compound.

Yeah buddy! If 3 is a crowd then we love to party. Every one of our products tests in independent third-party laboratories. Real science $h!t.
The legality of delta 8 varies from state to state but is federally legal. Delta 8 is popular because it produces the euphoric side effects of many THC products, but it provides a milder high. It also reduces drowsiness, anxiety, and paranoia. So it can be a great way to find out what you do like. Delta 8 THC is a mellow choice for people who want a buzz, but don’t want to get carried away. Delta 8 THC occurs naturally in cannabis plants in very small amounts
Delta 9 is the most abundant form of THC in cannabis plants. Cannabis containing more than.3% delta 9 THC is illegal on the federal level, buuuuuuut… thanks to the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (affectionately referred to as the 2018 Farm Bill), Delta-9 products with less than 0.3% of THC by dry weight are federally legal, so put those handcuffs away (unless you’re taking sexy vibe).
The main difference between delta 8 and delta 9 are their potencies and legalities. Delta 9 is more potent than Delta 8. Additionally, cannabis containing more than.3% delta 9 THC is illegal on the federal level. The legality of delta 8 varies from state to state but it is federally legal.
