Delta 8 Declared Legal In KY After Much Uncertainty
A huge win for farmers and retailers of hemp derivatives in the Commonwealth
According to Katie Moyer, president the Kentucky Hemp Association, Delta 8 THC has been declared a legal hemp-derivative after a year of deliberation.
Moyer said in a Sunday release that this was a “huge win for farmers and retailers of hemp derivatives in the Commonwealth.” According to Moyer, there isn’t any reason for Kentucky to be moving backwards by banning hemp products that have been sold for years in Kentucky already.
Delta-8 is a cannabinoid that occurs naturally in small amounts in hemp plants, and it is said to have some psychoactive properties similar to THC.
Delta-8 gummies, pills, powders, and even vape pens could be easily obtained from smoke shops and gas stations in Kentucky after CBD became legal, but the Kentucky Department of Agriculture wasn’t so sure about the legality of the cannabinoid.
