CBD/THC news - Delta-8 And -9 THCO are now Controlled Substances

Posted by cookierockwell @cookierockwell, Feb 20, 2023

I didn't know where to put this, but it's important news for those of us who use CBD/THC for pain.

From the article: "The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) says that two cannabinoids that have emerged in state markets do not meet the federal definition of legal hemp and are therefore considered illegal controlled substances"

Very interesting I used d8 for awhile . I stopped abruptly and got bad panic attacks. Do not stop quickly.

@cookierockwell -

Super interesting article. Thanks for posting it.

I'm personally skeptical of cannabis components being made synthetically. Seems like a path towards turning a plant that is very easy to grow into something you have to get from the pharmacy. I vote a big ol' NO on that one!
