of course not...it would probably have the same penalty as bud.

"If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." - Aldous Huxley

They can bust you with a seed, even stems..why would it be legal to possess a leaf? it still contains THC, but not as much..

processed hemp is legal, so at what point does it switch from illegal to legal, I'm looking for anyone who is more clear on the law

it's pretty hard to find info on this stuff

I wonder if it's possible to obtain a hemp leaf for like say educational purposes at a college. Say preserving a leaf inside of a glass case along with leaves of other similar species from the same plant class/order/family or whatever it'd be in.



Also the switch is the hemp itself isn't illegal, THC within the plant material is. If your plant is completely 100% free of cannabinoids, then it's a legal plant, and you can grow millions without anyone doing anything about it.

in the us, you are wrong. The cannabis plant is illegal as well as the THC under federal and most local law.

To have a leaf you'd need a DEA permit... same permit to have heroin.

So all hemp processing, not including seeds, has to be done outside the U.S.?

Well under the federal law, marijuana is a legal definition. It does not include the parts of the plant that are used to make hemp. Processing can be done in the united states provided nothing meats the definition of marijuana.

Seeds are marijuana until sterilized

I'm also not sure what kind of administrative bullshit the dea is trying to pull at the moment. They recently got bitchslapped twice by the ninth cir (a few years ago) when they tried to expand the definition as posted below by including things expressly omited. Don't know what they've been up to recently

Marijuana is defined thusly by the law:

Quote:

21 USC (16) The term “marihuana” means all parts of the plant Cannabis sativa L., whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of such plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such plant, its seeds or resin. Such term does not include the mature stalks of such plant, fiber produced from such stalks, oil or cake made from the seeds of such plant, any other compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such mature stalks (except the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil, or cake, or the sterilized seed of such plant which is incapable of germination.
