Today we’re exploring CBD Oil in Kansas|Updated Guidelines.
If you’ve been feeling confused about the legal status of CBD, and particularly in your state, well? You’re not alone!
Rules and regulations generally vary from state to state, and then there are federal laws too!
Even though CBD became federally legal in 2018, each State has been taking their time to create its own legislature.
The laws can be so confusing – especially around the legality of CBD in Kansas.
On paper, THC-free CBD oil is 100% legal in the State.
In July 2019, an amendment was made to the Kansas state hemp and cannabis laws to support their fledgling industrial hemp program.
2018: Governor Coyler signed SB 263 into law, known as the Alternative Crop Research Act.
This would license farmers to grow hemp that contained no more than 0.3% THC.
2019:Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly signed SB 28 into law, also known as Claire and Lola’s Law.
This prohibits child removal and safety for parents or children who possess physician-recommended medical cannabis oil with no more than 5% THC.
Currently, the only acceptable CBD products are those that have zero THC and all hemp cultivation must be licensed by the KDA.
Kansas CBD laws permit citizens to purchase and possess CBD products that contain zero THC.
CBD products can be sold as oils, pills, and lotions.
BUT – it is a crime to possess any amount of cannabis with trace amounts of THC.
CBD or Cannabidiol can come from both the marijuana and industrial hemp plant.
The difference between these two types of CBD, is that marijuana-derived CBD has a much higher percentage of THC (the psychoactive ingredient that gets you high).
While the hemp-derived CBD contains only traces of THC.
The same laws exist across the board in the USA – and to consume CBD legally, there must be no more than 0.3% THC.
But in Kansas it’s 0% THC, period. For now, anyway!
Not knowing where to get CBD oil can be challenging – especially when trying to find a proper, legal and quality CBD oil.
As long as you know a few key and important factors, you’ll be able to find CBD oil that works for you!

CBD Broad Spectrum or CBD Isolate, which contain zero traces of CBD are your best buds here.
Broad Spectrum simply means that there is zero THC ( the psychoactive compound that gets you ‘high’) and some terpenes are not extracted.
Terpenes are natural chemicals found on the cannabis plant responsible for aroma and taste like limonene (lemon) and myrcene – which can be found in hops and has a peppery, spicy, balsam fragrance – like in beer!
They can make edibles taste wonderful, especially when you’re cooking.
CBD Isolate is CBD in it’s purest form, without any terpenes extracted whatsoever.
If you’re looking to try CBD and CBD products that are legal, you can purchase them from your local health and wellness dispensaries or licensed retailers.
You can purchase CBD online if you’re having a tough time finding a good and reliable location or trustworthy source.
You can also purchase CBD online through specific websites, as long as the products contain 0 % THC.
According to the Industrial Hemp Policy, all hemp-derived products including CBD oil have to be labelled to comply with state and federal laws:
CBD may help in one or more of the following health challenges or conditions:
The type of CBD oil that’s derived from hemp oil is what’s legal at a federal level (as of the 2018 Farm Bill) and therefore allowed to be taken across state borders, and, yes, on flights within the USA.
According to the laws, if the THC percentage is below 0.3 percent, it is ok to order CBD from any other U.S state, because it falls under the “hemp” category.
However, in Kansas, you must only possess CBD with 0% THC. Be mindful of this!
There are many wonderful CBD products available in the States.
CBD Capsules or CBD Oil are great ways to start using CBD in a controlled, manageable way.
You can also enjoy CBD edibles like gummies or CBD cocktail mixers – which contain zero traces of THC.
There are also skincare and hair care products such as CBD Cream, and CBD Shampoo as well as CBD Conditioners – all wonderful wellness products that may improve the look and feel of skin and hair overall!
