Certain hemp-derived THC products are illegal in Texas as of Friday. The state banned products containing delta-eight and delta-10 THC variants, making possession punishable with jail time and fines.
Delta-Nine THC, the most widely sold THC product in Texas, is still legal. The Texas Supreme Court ruled in May that the Texas Department of State Health Services could reclassify all hemp-derived THC, other than delta-nine, as a schedule-one drug, outlawing its possession and sale in Texas.
The state’s hemp industry has been confused about the matter over the past few months because of conflicting court decisions.
