Hemp vs. Marijuana: It's a Tricky Thing
First off, let's clear up a common misconception: Hemp and marijuana are cousins, not twins. They both come from the cannabis plant, but they have a major difference: THC levels.
Tip: Break it down — section by section.
- Marijuana: This is the stuff that gets you high. It contains high levels of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive compound that gives you that "relaxed" feeling. Marijuana is illegal in Texas.
- Hemp: This is the chill cousin. It has low levels of THC (less than 0.3%) and is legal in Texas. It's used for a variety of products, from CBD oil to clothing.
So, What THC is Legal in Texas?
The short answer is: Hemp-derived THC. This includes things like Delta-8 THC, which is a cousin of Delta-9 THC (the psychoactive one found in marijuana). While it can give you a mild high, it's technically legal in Texas because it's derived from hemp.

But wait, there's more! The legal landscape is constantly changing. New THC isomers and synthetic cannabinoids pop up all the time. So, while something might be legal today, it could be illegal tomorrow.
Tip: Absorb, don’t just glance.
TL;DR: Stick to hemp-derived products with less than 0.3% THC to stay on the safe side.
A Word of Caution
Just because something is legal doesn't mean it's safe. Always research products before you consume them. Look for reputable brands that provide lab results to verify THC content. And remember, moderation is key.
