Wisconsin is the least regulated hemp market in the country — no potency cap, no licensing, no statewide age limit. Four separate regulation bills died in March 2026.
Pennsylvania has no hemp potency limits, no retail licensing and no age restriction — and the Senate rejected the bill that would have created all three in June 2026.
Ohio moved every intoxicating hemp product into licensed dispensaries in March 2026, and the governor line-item vetoed the one carve-out the legislature had written for THC beverages.
Georgia bans retail hemp flower outright — not by THC content but by product form — while leaving delta-8 legal and capping gummies at 10 mg. A new act signed in May 2026 will tighten it further.
North Carolina still uses the delta-9-only test, has no milligram cap, no licensing regime and no state age limit — and the bill that would change all of that was delayed until after the November election.
Virginia's CBD-ratio exception is repealed on 15 August 2026, leaving an absolute 2 mg total THC per package — one of the tightest limits in the country. What that removes from shelves and what remains.
