Verified October 22, 2026 (hash check) · confidence: confirmedCBN is not scheduled or named in Wisconsin. The THC entry (Wis. Stat. 961.14(4)(t)) reaches only tetrahydrocannabinols, with hemp THC carved out; the synthetic-cannabinoid list (tb) is a closed designer indole/pyrrole/indene structural class that does not include CBN; and the hemp definition (94.55(1)) is delta-9-only with no synthetic-substance exclusion. Section 94.55 is an agricultural-production statute only - no consumable-product cap, age gate, excise, or form rule reaches a hemp-derived CBN product.
'hemp' means the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of that plant, including the seeds thereof and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis or the maximum concentration allowed under federal law up to 1 percent, whichever is greater.
