What the record says

Legal - operating hemp-derived THC beverage businesses confirmed in current Indiana market reporting; within 'hemp product' definition. Indiana's approach is a caps/testing/packaging regime, not a named ban: 'low THC hemp extract' (<=0.3% total delta-9 THC by weight, no synthetic cannabinoids, no other controlled substances) is lawful statewide except in smokable/raw-flower form, which is retail-restricted to licensed processors only. A minor-sale prohibition (2025 SB138, under-18) and a possibly narrower age-21 rule for specific non-delta-9 'craft hemp flower' cannabinoids (2025 SB478, scope vs. plain delta-9 unconfirmed) layer additional restrictions on top of the base framework. IC 35-48-1-17.5 and IC 24-4-21 texts were sourced via Justia because iga.in.gov’s statute browser is a JavaScript application that could not be rendered by standard fetch in this research pass; the hemp/flower definitions were independently corroborated via the Purdue Office of Indiana State Chemist's official statutory republication, which is treated as authoritative given OISC’s statutory role as administrator of IC 15-15-13.

Controlling language, verbatim

"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 three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry weight basis, for any part of the Cannabis sativa L. plant.
