Florida
In Florida, two companion bills—HB 1613 and SB 1698—would limit hemp products to 0.3% total delta-9 THC on a wet-weight basis or 2mg THC per serving/10mg THC per container, whichever is less. The bills would prohibit ingestible or inhalable hemp extracts from containing synthetic or natural controlled substances, including delta-8 THC, delta-10 THC, HHC, THCA, THCP, and THCV. Also, the bills would expand advertising and packaging restrictions and place conditions on organized events where hemp products are sold or marketed.
A wholesale ban on consumable products that contain delta-8 THC or similar substances is inappropriate.
We encourage Florida Hemp Supporters to urge legislators to follow the Kentucky model—rather than outright prohibition, let’s regulate intoxicating products and make sure that they are unavailable to minors.
