Popular Hemp Products Set To Be Banned In Texas By End Of The Month Under New State Rules

Mar 18, 2026 | Featured, National

Popular smokable hemp products are set to be effectively banned by the state of Texas at the end of March under new rules put in place by the Department of State Health Services, causing a ripple effect on the consumers who use them and the businesses that sell them. 

The rules change how the THC content of smokable hemp flower is calculated — including other cannabinoids when measuring the threshold allowable by law. This means much of the flower smoked in joints or pipes will be off store shelves by the end of the month, according to the state law library.
