What the record says

No form-specific THC change under the 2022 general-market rule ('no changes to THC limits for topicals, vape products, and joints'); still bound by the 0.3% statutory/1% administrative concentration ceiling and mandatory OLCC-compliant testing and labeling for hemp vapes. Oregon runs two parallel hemp-item THC regimes: (1) OAR 845-025-2760 for hemp sold through OLCC-licensed marijuana retailers (1 mg/serving, 10/50 mg/container, 1%/5% concentration), and (2) OAR 845-026-0400 (Table 3) for the general market - grocery, convenience, smoke shop, online (2 mg/serving edible, 20 mg/container, 100 mg tincture/container, under 0.5 mg for minors). Both regimes sit under the overarching 0.3% statutory THC definition of 'industrial hemp.' Smokable flower and topicals are exempt from per-serving mg caps in the general market, making flower the most permissive form; concentrated drinkable formats are the most constrained given the tiny per-serving figures.

Controlling language, verbatim

Hemp edibles are limited to 2 mg THC per serving and 20 mg THC per container. Hemp tinctures are limited to 100 mg THC per container. There are no changes to THC limits for topicals, vape products, and joints. All hemp products are still limited to no more than 0.3% THC.

In general, hemp-derived beverages that contain artificially derived cannabinoids are prohibited from being sold in Oregon. The only exception to this rule is if the artificially derived cannabinoid has been approved for sale by the OLCC. Cannabinoids that are sometimes manufactured as artificially derived cannabinoids include delta-9-THC, delta-8-THC, CBN, HHC, and THCO. However, some of these cannabinoids (e.g. delta-9-THC, CBN) can also occur naturally in hemp. Whether a product containing these cannabinoids is eligible for sale to Oregon consumers depends on how the cannabinoids were made.
