The 2018 Farm Bill has created a legal loophole for selling THCa online. THCa, which is non-psychoactive until heated, can be sold legally if it tests under 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis. This allows companies to bypass traditional cannabis licensing and state regulations.
Key Points:
2018 Farm Bill: Permits cannabis products with under 0.3% Delta-9 THC.
THCa Products: Non-psychoactive until heated but converts to Delta-9 THC when smoked or vaped.
No License Needed: THCa meets legal THC limits, avoiding the need for a cannabis license.
Consumer Impact: Consumers can buy THCa products online, evading stricter state cannabis laws.
Summary: The 2018 Farm Bill has inadvertently allowed THCa products to be sold legally online by staying within THC limits, despite their psychoactive potential when heated.

Explaining THCa and THC: The 2018 Farm Bill Loophole...
- THCa vs. THC: THCa is non-psychoactive but converts to THC (which causes a high) when heated through smoking, vaping, or cooking.
- 2018 Farm Bill Loophole: The bill legalized hemp with less than 0.3% THC but didn’t mention THCa, allowing high-THCa cannabis to be sold legally if it tests below 0.3% THC before being heated.
- Online vs. Dispensary Sales: Both sell THCa-rich cannabis. Dispensaries can sell any THC level, while online sellers must comply with the 0.3% THC limit until the product is heated.
- Decarboxylation: Heating (through smoking, vaping, or cooking) decarbs (converts) THCa into active THC.
