Delta-9
aka delta 9 · delta-9 thc
Delta-9 THC is the most well-known and abundant psychoactive cannabinoid in cannabis. It is the molecule most consumers think of as 'THC.' Hemp-derived Delta-9 is federally legal when sourced from hemp and the finished product contains no more than 0.3% Delta-9 by dry weight — a rule that allows surprisingly potent gummies (up to 10mg+ per 5g gummy).
Example: Hemp-derived Delta-9 gummies are a fast-growing category in the US.
Etymology: Standard chemistry naming convention.
