Are these products legal to purchase?
Yes! Every product we offer is federally legal thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill. This legislation makes all derivatives, isomers, and cannabinoids in hemp legal, provided the final product has less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC. flowerz products are all hemp-derived and contain less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC. Note that hemp-derived cannabinoids are regulated differently by each state, and those laws are constantly changing. Do your legal due diligence to ensure you’re acting legally within your state or territory. The information on this page and website is for informational purposes only. It is not legal advice.

What's the difference between hemp and marijuana?
Cannabis is the whole plant. On one side you have hemp and on the other you have marijuana. In 1937, Congress made both hemp and marijuana illegal, and in 1970, they categorized both as Schedule I drugs. That was the case until 2018 when Congress passed the 2018 Farm Bill, in which hemp was legalized as long as it contained less than 0.3% THC. This makes hemp federally legal, which is why we can accept all forms of payment at our retail location, bank with FDIC-backed institutions, and we can ship legally across the nation. Aside from its legal differences, there are some core differences between these two parts of the cannabis plant. 99% of the time marijuana has a high amount of THC and only a very low amount of CBD. Hemp, on the other hand, naturally has a very high amount of CBD in most instances and only a trace amount of THC. The cannabinoid profile of hemp is ideal for people looking for benefits from the plant without the ‘high.’ In addition, hemp can be used for much more than relaxing or finding relief that comes from ingestibles. Hemp has over 50,000 uses. Anything made from cotton, soy, plastic, or wood, can be made from hemp materials. And because of its regenerative and carbon sequestrating properties, hemp can be an effective, natural climate solution. Marijuana has regenerative properties as well, but is limited on its industrial uses compared to hemp. Instead, marijuana’s main use is to ingest for recreational, spiritual, or medicinal reasons. Because technically both hemp and marijuana are cannabis, you may see the word “cannabis” used interchangeably with either.
What is CBD?
CBD (Cannabidiol) is one of the many cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. Cannabinoids are also found in many other plants. CBD interacts with our body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). CBD is a non-psychoactive compound used for the management of many ailments including anxiety, stress, insomnia, pain management, and inflammation – to name a few. People around the globe are finding new effective uses for CBD every day. CBD is typically extracted from CBD-rich hemp (cannabis sativa with less than 0.3% THC) to be included in a wide range of products from sublingual oils, tinctures, topicals, edibles and pet treats. CBD-rich smokable hemp flower and vape products are also popular methods of delivery.
What is the Endocannabinoid System?
The ECS (Endocannabinoid System) is a system that naturally exists within our body. “Endo”, is from “endogenous” (meaning it is naturally occurring within the human body); and “cannabinoid”, refers to cannabis-like substances. The ECS has three parts – (1) endocannabinoids (substances that interact with endocannabinoid receptors), (2) receptors throughout our bodies, and (3) enzymes that help process the cannabinoids and endocannabinoids. Our bodies naturally produce compounds, endocannabinoids, to interact with this system. Cannabinoids (found in cannabis and other plants) also make use of this system. The endocannabinoid system is part of our body’s functionality in charge of maintaining homeostasis. CB1 (helps to regulate appetite, memory, and pain) and CB2 (help to reduce inflammation) receptors are found throughout the body, including in our brain, digestive, and central nervous system.

Will THCa products cause a positive drug test?
Yes, using THCa will result in a positive drug test for THCa for two reasons: Drug tests don’t differentiate between THC and THCa; and Most methods of using THCa convert the cannabinoid into THC anyway. So, using THCa should be avoided if you have a drug test coming up soon.
