State and federal regulations demand all hemp products are not allowed to have more than 0.3% THC.

And although the flowerstands out from the rest of the plant because of its high CBD content, the stalks, seeds, and leaves have varying levels of value too. 

CBD hemp flower often contains high percentages of CBD and low percentages of THC. Other hemp strains could also have miniscule levels of other non-intoxicating cannabinoids including CBG, CBC, CBN, and CBDV.
