Can Cannabis Gummies Have Illegal Levels Of THC? CBD Oracle Study Reveals That Is Happening

A lab study from CBD Oracle, a cannabis consumer research company, has found that 34% of hemp delta-9 edibles contain too much THC to be sold in states like Colorado or California – some are almost four times over the limit. Due to the legal loophole, companies can sell high-THC products without safety testing (75% of products in the lab study were not tested for contaminants) and with no substantial age verification. The analysis of 53 products, representing 40% of all hemp delta-9 brands, revealed just how easy it is to get high on hemp anywhere in the country.

CBD Oracle commissioned InfiniteCAL Labs to conduct the testing. The results show that while 96% of products comply with the 0.3% THC limit imposed by the 2018 Farm Bill, 34% had so much THC that they wouldn't be allowed to be sold in dispensaries.
