Frequently Asked Questions
Will smoking Delta-9 hemp flower get you high?
Yes. Delta-9 hemp flower contains Delta-9 THC (≤0.3% per dry weight), the primary psychoactive cannabinoid in cannabis. Delta-9 THC produces psychoactive effects including altered perception and relaxation.* Despite lower concentrations compared to marijuana flower (15%-30% THC), Delta-9 hemp flower still delivers psychoactive experiences. First-time users should start with 1-2 inhalations and wait 10-15 minutes to assess effects before additional consumption.
Is Delta-9 hemp flower legal to buy online?
Yes. Delta-9 hemp flower is currently federally legal when hemp-derived and contains ≤0.3% Delta-9 THC per dry weight under the 2018 Farm Bill. Federal law permits online purchase and interstate shipping of compliant hemp products. However, state laws vary—some states restrict Delta-9 hemp products despite federal compliance. Smoke Cartel ships Delta-9 flower to states where legal. Customers should verify local regulations before purchase. (21+ only).
Note that November 2026 Farm Bill amendments may change the legal status of some products.
What's the difference between Delta-9 hemp flower and marijuana?
Source and THC concentration differentiate Delta-9 hemp flower from marijuana. Delta-9hemp flower derives from hemp (≤0.3% Delta-9 THC dry weight) and is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Marijuana flower derives from cannabis plants containing >0.3% Delta-9 THC and remains federally controlled. Both produce psychoactive effects, but marijuana flower typically contains 15%-30% Delta-9 THC compared to hemp flower's ≤0.3%. Legal status is the critical distinction: hemp flower is currently federally compliant; marijuana flower is not.
Does Delta-9 hemp flower smell like marijuana?
Yes. Delta-9 hemp flower has aromatics similar to marijuana flower because both contain terpenes (aromatic compounds responsible for cannabis smell). Common terpenes in Delta-9 hemp flower include myrcene (earthy, musky), limonene (citrus), and caryophyllene (spicy, peppery), producing distinct cannabis aromatics. Aroma intensity depends on terpene concentration and freshness. Smoke Cartel Delta-9 hemp flower products list terpene profiles on product pages for aroma expectations before purchase.
How is Delta-9 flower tested for quality?
Delta-9 hemp flower undergoes third-party laboratory testing before sale at Smoke Cartel. Independent labs analyze cannabinoid content (Delta-9 THC, CBD, CBG, CBN percentages), terpene profiles (aromatic compound identification), pesticide screening (150+ compound residue testing), heavy metal analysis (lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium limits), and microbial testing (mold, bacteria, E. coli detection). Test results are documented in Certificates of Analysis (COAs) accessible through product pages. Third-party testing ensures compliance, purity, and potency accuracy.
How strong is Delta-9 hemp flower compared to CBD flower?
Delta-9 hemp flower produces psychoactive effects, while CBD flower does not. Delta-9 THC is the primary psychoactive cannabinoid in cannabis. CBD flower contains cannabidiol (non-psychoactive) and produces no 'high' effects. Delta-9 flower contains ≤0.3% Delta-9 THC per dry weight, creating mild to moderate psychoactive experiences. CBD flower may contain trace amounts of THC (<0.3%) but insufficient for psychoactive effects. The key difference: Delta-9 flower is psychoactive; CBD flower is not.
Can Delta-9 hemp flower be shipped to all states?
No. While federally legal, Delta-9 hemp flower legality varies by state. Some states prohibit Delta-9 hemp products despite federal compliance under the 2018 Farm Bill. Smoke Cartel ships Delta-9 hemp flower only to states where legal based on current state regulations. State restrictions change periodically—customers should verify local hemp product laws before ordering. Smoke Cartel's checkout system blocks shipping to restricted states, preventing non-compliant orders.
