228 pounds of pot. 70 pounds of THC gummies found during traffic stop on Gulf freeway.

I guess they will spend the $400 for the outside testing.

Interesting no penalties for personal use amounts will increase pressure on suppliers like this.
I'd be interested in seeing the test results for the gummies to see if they are really THC.
It seems that who ever makes these would have to run tests of their ingredients to get the proper strength.

The gummies could have anything in them including fentanyl.

Apparently this is a problem, there is no quality control on illegal drugs. Thus with this hemp change we may see more use of Pot with no quality controls, so accidental overdoses or other issues could occur.

I’ve been around it since college days. But I never smoked anything, but maybe two cigars.

I’ve wanted the Republicans to be out ahead on this issue.
And by accident they are. Or this could have been part of a big plan and they got snookered.

Right now according to the article they test for the presence of THC. Yes or no. The law now allows THC to be present but only in small consentrations. They can’t test for that yet, with out sending it to private labs for an expensive test.

Breaking: Marijuana accidentally made legal in Texas

More to follow shortly. Chemical compounds are chemical compounds. Has something to do with new Hemp law.

Found this so far.

Seems to have to do with not being able to prove it’s the legal product hemp and not the illegal product marijuana.

Labs are unable to test consentration of THC with a sample on equipment they now have. Can send it out but it costs $200-$400 to test. Will take a year or so to get the new equipment calibrated and certified. New equipment very expensive and has to be purchased first.

So DA’s are dropping small cases. So still illegal but not currently going to prosecute.
