The caveats that matter
- Dual test (0.3% total THC + 2 mg/package) makes essentially all THCA flower and concentrates illegal at retail
- Fourth Circuit upheld SB 903 against Farm Bill preemption Jan 7, 2025 (Northern Virginia Hemp & Agriculture v. Virginia)
- Adult possession/home-grow of marijuana is legal but there is NO retail recreational market; medical dispensaries are the licensed channel
