Yes, HHC is (sometimes) Legal..
But that depends on where you live. Here in the US (and in a number of other countries), HHC (hexahydrocannabinnol) became federally legal in 2018 as a result of the 2018 Farm Bill. This bill included provisions for clarifying the differences between Cannabis and Hemp, and essentially states that any Cannabis Sativa plant or end product containing less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC would now be considered federally compliant Hemp.
These legal changes drastically altered the Hemp farming industry, and ultimately resulted in mass quantities of CBD being put into the market. Labs would later learn how to convert CBD into several additional psychoactive and non-psychoactive compounds like Delta 8 THC, HHC, CBN and CBG. When placed into vapes, cartridges or edibles, these hemp derived cannabinoids can produce similar effects to the federally regulated Delta 9 THC, all while containing little to no Delta 9.
As these products became more popular and more widely available, many individual state governments have passed legislation banning or regulating the use and sale of this class of compounds. Some have banned specific examples, and others have clarified the state’s position that these products are federally legal.
Is HHC Synthetic?
That depends on who you ask. There are a number of instances where HHC has been documented to be naturally occurring. In other words, researchers have harvested naturally grown Cannabis and have found HHC existing within the plant matter.
However, in order to produce HHC at the scale required for production of consumer goods, it must be derived through a conversion process which takes CBD extracted from Hemp and turns it into high purity HHC.
Where Can I Buy HHC?
In states where HHC is legal, you are likely to find HHC at smoke shops, convenience stores, and maybe even gas stations, especially in areas where traditional cannabis access is restricted. There are also countless online retailers who will be happy to sell you an HHC product and then ship it to you. In just about every case, you’ll have to be at least 21 years of age. Because the legality varies so widely, it’s important to check with the regulations in your state before making a purchase.
