Sort of! Weed is partially legal in Alabama.

Alabama has legalized medical marijuana, but its implementation has faced significant delays. The state passed the Alabama Medical Cannabis Law in 2021, allowing qualifying patients to access cannabis products through licensed dispensaries. However, the licensing process has been mired in litigation and delays, preventing patients from legally obtaining medical marijuana as of early 2024.

Delta 8 THC, a hemp-derived cannabinoid, is currently legal in Alabama as long as it is derived from hemp plants with less than 0.3% Delta 9 THC content, in line with federal regulations. Delta 9 THC, the primary psychoactive compound in marijuana, remains illegal for recreational use in Alabama. The state also allows the sale of other hemp-derived products like CBD, THCA, and Delta 10 THC, provided they meet the legal THC limit. However, recent legislative efforts aimed to prohibit the sale of "psychoactive cannabinoids" like Delta 8 to individuals under 21 years old, indicating potential future restrictions.
