Flora shipping policy

Flora Distro does not currently ship to Kansas. We apologize for the inconvenience. This company policy is separate from the legal posture summarized below.

Current state posture

No dedicated d8 ban but strict total-THC standard incl THCA (≤0.3%) + bans smokable/loose flower/vapes/teas formats — THCA flower cannot be legally sold. D8 technically legal but AG Opinion 2021-4 creates risk.

Recent movement

None; SB292 still not passed.

Litigation and court posture

None vs current statute; rests on AG opinion + format bans.

Next date to watch

Federal cap 11/12; SB292 (age-21/caps) stuck in committee, not passed, so next change is federal.

Federal change scheduled for November 12, 2026

State rules are only one layer. Unless Congress changes the enacted provision, Section 781 changes the federal hemp definition to total THC—Delta-9 THC plus 0.877 times THCA—and adds a 0.4 milligram total-THC-per-container cap beginning November 12, 2026. That federal change is separate from the Kansas posture above.
