Lauren Boebert was laughed at and mocked by the entire audience at her debate on Thursday, after she accused her opponent of being an “illegal drug dealer” for supposedly selling “hot hemp.”

According to the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp can be legally grown as long as it contains 0.3 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or less. Once the hemp is grown, it can be turned into gummies, oils, tinctures, creams, honey and other products. While the Farm Bill made CBD products legal, THC is still against the law. If a plant has too much THC, it must be destroyed by the farmer.

What Is Hot Hemp?

Since the passage of the Farm Bill, there have been rumors about people selling hot hemp. This term basically refers to hemp that has more than the 0.3 percent limit of THC. For the most part, this rumor is just a myth. While the hemp plant may sometimes have more than 0.3 percent THC, CBD products never do.

At Real Tested CBD, we have not encountered any hot hemp across more than 50 brands. We have tested a broad range of CBD tinctures, CBD gummies, CBD capsules, CBD creams, CBD honey and CBD oils. None of these products have come anywhere close to 0.3 percent.

This does not mean that hemp plants do not have higher THC levels on occasion. However, these plants are destroyed before they can be turned into CBD products. It is against the law to use hemp plants that contain more than 0.3 percent THC, so we cannot manufacture hemp products from any plant that has higher THC levels.

Because it's not federally legal, reqs may vary so an agreed upon standard is 0.3% for the THC level in CBD hemp.

She' talking out her ass as usual.

It could help them dealing with mass shootings.

Cannabis is less lethal than guns!
