Delta-8 THC is generally less potent than marijuana and is extracted from hemp, not marijuana, plants so it is technically legal at the federal level. It is only regulated by some states, and without broad guidelines.
The warnings were issued to: Delta Muniches; Dr. Smoke LLC, also known as Dr. S LLC; Exclusive Hemp Farms/Oshipt; Nikte's Wholesale LLC; North Carolina Hemp Exchange LLC; and The Haunted Vapor Room.
