Connecticut
In Connecticut, HB 6699 “high-THC hemp products” from the definition of hemp and classifies them as marijuana. The term “high-THC hemp products” is defined to include a hemp product intended for ingestion, inhalation, absorption, or internal consumption that exceeds any of the following total THC milligram limits:
- For a hemp edible, hemp topical or hemp transdermal patch, 1mg of THC per serving or 5mg per container
- For a hemp tincture, 1mg per serving or 25mg per container
- For a hemp concentrate or extract, 25mg per container
- For any other consumable hemp product, 1mg per serving or 5mg per container (or 0.3% on a dry weight basis for cannabis flower or cannabis trim)
Additionally, the bill prohibits hemp products from containing synthetic cannabinoids, and creates labeling and packaging requirements for ingestible and cosmetic products. The bill passed the legislature and is expected to be signed into law soon. |
