    What weed is legal in Florida right now? Are Delta 8 and Delta 9 products legal in Florida?

    Yes, delta 9 THC and delta 8 THC products, which some call “diet weed,” are legal in Florida.

    Although you are not legally allowed to purchase and smoke real pot in Florida without a medical marijuana license, you can purchase low level delta 8 and delta 9 THC products at your local smoke shop without a medical license. The only requirement to purchase low THC products in Florida is to be 21 years of age or older.

    Is delta 8 the same as regular weed?

    Delta-8 products have milder psychoactive effects than the cannabinoid that gives “real” weed its effect. Marijuana and hemp are two types of cannabis sativa plants. The type of weed you buy at medical dispensaries comes from marijuana plants, while CBD and delta-8 THC come from hemp plants.

    “Delta-8 THC is one of more than 100 cannabinoids produced naturally by the cannabis plant, but it is not found in significant quantities in the cannabis plant,” the report states. The FDA website says. “As a result, concentrated amounts of delta-8 THC are typically made from hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD). »

    What is the difference between delta 8 and delta 9?

    Delta 8 and Delta 9 products are very similar in that when smoked or otherwise consumed, they give a milder, less long-lasting version of the psychoactive effects of marijuana.

    The two main differences between delta 8 and delta 9 THC products are potency and regulation. Many manufacturers of Delta 8 products do not follow specific regulations, such as ensuring that the product does not contain anything that is not stated on the label. Delta 9 products are more closely regulated in states where legalization has led to specific rules on the composition and sale of THC products. Delta 9 products are also slightly more powerful than Delta 8.

    Basically, even delta 8 plant products are extracted and synthesized from CBD; while delta 9 can be consumed in its plant form without being extracted.

    “Delta-9 THC can be smoked or vaporized in flower (bud) form without requiring extraction, although edibles, topicals and other preparations require an extraction process,” according to Forbes Health.

    “On the other hand, almost all delta-8 THC products are synthesized, extracted and purified from CBD derived from cannabis.”
