Certain types of Delta 9 THC products are legal in Nebraska, including all our THC gummies and Delta 9 edibles.
Read on for the full scoop on the legality of Delta 9 THC in Nebraska.
Is Delta 9 THC Legal in Nebraska?
Nebraska passed the Nebraska Hemp Farming Act in 2019, providing new regulation for hemp products containing Delta 9 THC.
Nebraska became the 37th state to broadly legalize hemp when Governor Pete Ricketts signed the House Bill LB657 in 2019. This bill was a direct response to the 2018 Federal Farm Bill, which legalized hemp at the national level.
The House Bill LB657 labels hemp as an “agricultural commodity” that can be grown, processed, and marketed in Nebraska.
How Is Delta 9 THC Legal?
Under the 2018 Farm Bill, products containing Delta 9 THC are legal on a federal level in the US, provided they meet the following conditions.
- The Delta 9 THC is derived from hemp
- Products contain 0.3% or less of THC by dry weight
Nebraska followed up with similar state legislation authorizing the use of Delta 9 THC products that meet Farm Bill criteria.
Let’s get into the details.
The 2018 Farm Bill
The 2018 Farm Bill authorized the widespread production of hemp products on a federal level, and removed hemp from the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) list of Controlled Substances.
This Bill differentiated industrial hemp from marijuana, which is cultivated for its high THC content. Federally legal hemp products, according to the Farm Bill, must contain less than 0.3% of THC by dry weight, and the source of THC must be industrial hemp.
Even though hemp is legal on a federal level, each state can determine which hemp-derived products are legal in said state. For example, Delta 8 THC products are legal on a federal level but illegal in a number of states including Nebraska.
Nebraska House Bill 3595
Soon after the US Federal government passed the Farm Bill, the Nebraska Hemp Farming Act, passed by the Nebraska Legislature and signed into law by Governor Pete Ricketts, established a state hemp program within the Nebraska Department of Agriculture (NDA).
The House Bill LB657 gave the NDA the authority to regulate the growing, processing, handling and brokering of hemp in Nebraska.
To legally grow hemp in Nebraska, interested parties must receive a license from NDA, regardless of the size of operation of cultivation. Growing, processing, handling, or brokering hemp without a license from NDA (unless one is a member of a Native American tribe with a USDA-approved hemp plan) is illegal in Nebraska.
Medical Marijuana in Nebraska
Senator Anna Wishart's 2021 bill to legalize medical marijuana in Nebraska stalled and medical marijuana is still illegal in Nebraska as of September 2022. Had it passed, the legislation would have allowed patients with certain qualifying conditions to purchase and possess up to two and a half ounces of pot from licensed dispensaries. While the bill would have legalized medical marijuana use, it would not have allowed patients to smoke marijuana.
Nebraska's cannabis laws are some of the most strict in the country, as both recreational and medical marijuana remain illegal.
Sec. 2-502. Purpose of act.
It is the policy of this state that hemp is recognized as a viable agricultural crop. The purpose of the Nebraska Hemp Farming Act is to:
(1) Align state law with federal law regarding the cultivation, handling, marketing, and processing of hemp and hemp products;
(2) Promote the cultivation and processing of hemp and open up new commercial markets for farmers and businesses through the sale of hemp products;
(3) Establish testing and compliance procedures;
(4) Promote the expansion of Nebraska's hemp industry to the maximum extent permitted by law and allow farmers and businesses to cultivate, handle, and process hemp and sell hemp products for commercial purposes;
(5) Encourage and empower research into hemp cultivation and the processing of hemp products at postsecondary institutions in the state and in the private sector;
(6) Facilitate interstate commerce by not impeding the shipment of hemp into and out of this state;
(7) Return Nebraska to the forefront of the hemp industry.
Sec. 2-503. Terms, Definitions
(2) Commercial sale means the sale of products in the stream of commerce, at retail, wholesale, and online
(8) Federally defined THC level for hemp means a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis as defined in section 10113 of the federal Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, Public Law 115-334, as such section existed on January 1, 2019
(11) this section defines hemp as the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of such plant, including the viable seeds of such plant and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis. Hemp shall be considered an agricultural commodity. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, hemp shall not be considered a controlled substance under the Uniform Controlled Substances Act
(12) Licensee means an individual or a business entity possessing a license issued by the department under the Nebraska Hemp Farming Act to cultivate, handle, process, or broker hemp
(14) Nebraska heirloom cannabis plant or seed means a hemp plant or seed from the plant Cannabis sativa L. that possesses characteristics of a unique and specialized cannabis seed variety that is present in Nebraska or has been recognized as produced in Nebraska
Sec. 2-514
(1) Hemp from each cultivation site registered with the department shall be tested for delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration prior to harvest by an approved testing facility at the licensee's expense. The results of such tests shall be certified directly to the department by the testing facility prior to harvest. The test results shall identify the location ID where the hemp was cultivated.
(2) The department may, at its discretion, conduct sampling and testing of any hemp from any licensee at any time.
What is Delta 9 THC?
Delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol (also known as Delta 9 THC or Δ-9-THC) is one of the many forms of THC found in hemp and marijuana plants. Tetrahydrocannabinols (THC compounds) are among the 113 cannabinoids recognized in cannabis.
Delta 9 THC is found in both hemp and marijuana plants. THC in hemp has been a controversial topic in recent years. Hemp plants contain very low levels of Delta 9 THC, but because of their close relationship to marijuana plants, they are often confused with them. This misunderstanding has led to a great deal of confusion and debate surrounding the legal status of hemp products.
All THC compounds produce psychoactive effects and make you feel high at a sufficient dosage, with Delta 9 THC providing the strongest effects. Our products contain microdoses of THC: enough for you to experience the many benefits of THC without experiencing unwanted psychoactive effects.
Delta 9 vs Delta 8
Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC are both cannabinoids that are found in marijuana. While both Delta 8 and Delta 9 THC offer a variety of potential benefits, they each have their own unique effects.
Delta-9 THC is the most well-known type of THC. It is the main psychoactive component in cannabis, and it is responsible for the plant's signature "high." Delta-9 THC as a more potent Delta strain of THC is also known for its medical benefits, which include pain relief, anti-inflammatory effects, and more.
Delta 8 is less potent than Delta 9, making it a good choice for those who are new to cannabis or looking for a more gentle experience.
In terms of medical benefits, both cannabinoids have been shown to be effective at reducing anxiety and pain.
In terms of medical marijuana, Delta 8 THC is sometimes used to treat cancer patients who are undergoing chemotherapy, as it can help to reduce nausea and vomiting. It is also being studied as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Delta 8 has also been shown to help with nausea and appetite loss, while Delta 9 can improve focus and concentration.
However, more research is needed to confirm the efficacy of Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 in these potential applications.

Generally, Delta 9 THC is stronger than Delta 8 THC. According to a recent study, the effects of Delta 8 are much milder, with participants comparing this compound to ‘Delta 9’s younger sibling’. Due to their milder effects, gummies with Delta 8 are a great choice for people new to products containing hemp.

The legality status of Delta 10 in Nebraska is subject to change, so it’s important to stay informed and understand the law around industrial hemp and its byproducts if you plan on consuming Delta 10, or any other THC product.
What is the legal age to buy Delta 8 in Nebraska?
In Nebraska, there are no state regulations that place age restrictions on the purchase of hemp-derived products. This means that retailers have the right to determine their own age limits for the purchase of Delta-8 products.
However, many retailers do require consumers to be at least 21 years of age in order to purchase Delta-8 products. This is due to the fact that Delta-8 is derived from hemp, and thus it falls under the same regulations as other hemp-derived products.
Is Delta 9 legal in all states?
In December 2018, the U.S. Congress passed the 2018 Farm Bill, federally legalizing hemp, defined as cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) and derivatives of cannabis with extremely low concentrations of the psychoactive compound delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) (no more than 0.3 percent THC on a dry weight basis), from the definition of marijuana in the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
These products are now legal in 49 states which essentially follow the Farm Bill when it comes to Delta-9. Idaho is the only state where hemp Delta-9 is explicitly banned.
Is THC-O legal in Nebraska?
THC-O is currently legal in Nebraska. Although it is federally legal, THC-O is not legal in all US states, and many have revoked its legal status in recent years due to its potency. If you consume THC-O in Nebraska, keep track of any changes to hemp industry laws that may jeopardize its legality status.
Can I fly with Delta 9 gummies?
Yes, you can fly to and from 49 US states with hemp-derived Delta 9 gummies that contain less than 0.3% of THC, except Idaho. If you are traveling abroad, the legality status of hemp products in the country you’re traveling to will dictate whether you can fly with Delta 9. Remember, hemp is a controlled substance in many countries, and even fully illegal in some.
Is Delta 9 an indica or sativa?
Delta 9 itself is neither an indica or a sativa, but it can come from either of the two main strain types of the cannabis plant: Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica. These cannabis plants produce different effects, as indica strains contain more CBD, leading to a more relaxing high. Unlike hemp-derived Delta 9, cannabis-derived Delta 9 THC is not federally legal.
Does Delta 9 show up on drug tests?
Yes, Delta 9 will show up on a drug test, as will all other forms of THC. If you know you’re going to be drug tested, stop taking products with THC about a month or so before the test, even if the product in question is fully legal.
