Minnesota THC Laws

Is THC legal in Minnesota?

Yes. Minnesota legalized hemp-derived THC edibles and beverages in July 2022. Products must contain no more than 5mg of THC per serving and 50mg per package. All products sold at Love Is An Ingredient are fully compliant with Minnesota state law and derived from federally legal hemp containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight.

Do I need a medical card to purchase THC products?

No. Minnesota's hemp-derived THC law allows adults 21 and older to purchase legal THC edibles and beverages without a medical card. Simply bring a valid government-issued ID showing you are 21 or older.

Will THC edibles show up on a drug test?

Yes. Hemp-derived THC products contain real THC (Delta-9 or Delta-8) and can cause a positive result on standard drug tests. If you are subject to drug testing for employment or any other reason, please be aware of this before consuming any THC products. CBD-only and mushroom products do not contain THC.

Products & Dosing

What types of products do you sell?

We carry a wide selection of hemp-derived products including THC gummies, chocolates, beverages and seltzers, tinctures, cookies, snacks, seasonings, CBD gummies, CBD creams, and functional mushroom supplements. We stock trusted brands like Retro Bakery, Edwin's Edibles, and Botany Farms, among others.

How much THC is in your products?

All of our THC products comply with Minnesota's legal limits: up to 5mg of THC per serving and 50mg of THC per package. Many of our products also contain CBD in various ratios (such as 1:1 THC to CBD) for a balanced experience. Every product label clearly lists the exact cannabinoid content per serving. Shop by category: gummies, chocolates, drinks & seltzers, or tinctures.

What is the difference between Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC?

Delta-9 THC is the primary psychoactive compound found naturally in cannabis. Delta-8 THC is a less potent isomer that produces milder effects. Both are available in hemp-derived form in Minnesota. Browse our full selection of THC gummies, chocolates, and beverages, or visit us in store — our staff can help you choose the right product based on your experience level and desired effects.

How should I dose THC edibles if I'm a beginner?

If you're new to THC, we recommend starting with 2.5mg (half a standard serving) and waiting at least 90 minutes before considering more. Edibles take longer to take effect than other methods — typically 30 to 90 minutes. Everyone's tolerance is different, so start low and go slow. Our in-store staff is always happy to help you find the right starting point.

Are your products lab tested?

Yes. All products we carry are third-party lab tested for potency, purity, and compliance with Minnesota's hemp-derived THC regulations. Lab results verify cannabinoid content and screen for contaminants including heavy metals, pesticides, and residual solvents. Shop with confidence from brands like Retro Bakery, Edwin's Edibles, and Botany Farms.

Can I use THC products for sleep?

Many of our customers use THC and CBD products to support their nighttime routine. We carry a dedicated collection of night-time products including gummies, chocolates, tinctures, and beverages formulated for relaxation and sleep. Products combining THC with CBN or melatonin are particularly popular for sleep support.

What are functional mushroom products?

Functional mushrooms are non-psychoactive mushroom species used for their wellness benefits. Popular varieties include lion's mane (focus and cognitive support), reishi (relaxation and immune support), and cordyceps (energy and endurance). Our mushroom gummies and supplements contain no THC or CBD — they're purely for functional wellness.

What is Retro Bakery?

Retro Bakery is our sister brand, manufactured in-house by our parent company Uniflora Holistics. Retro Bakery specializes in THC-infused baked goods, gummies, and edibles made with high-quality ingredients right here in Minnesota. Because we make it ourselves, we can guarantee freshness, quality, and full compliance with Minnesota regulations.
