What’s Next For the Hemp Industry | TTB Presented by Flowhub

With the December 11 federal hemp deadline approaching, the hemp industry is heading into one of its most uncertain stretches.

In our latest Trade to Black podcast, presented by Flowhub, host Shadd Dales and Anthony Varrell welcome back Thomas Winstanley, President of Edibles.com.W

Winstanley explains how federal and state rules turn into real consequences for shoppers, including why a hemp-derived THC product can be available in one state and restricted in another, how shipping rules affect online orders, and what adults should check before buying, from dose and cannabinoid type to third-party lab documentation.

He also covers what consumers could see change if the federal rules take effect December 11.

In segment two, the Check In Poll of the Week, presented by NuggMD, asks how cannabis has affected alcohol consumption. Of 1,005 respondents surveyed September 24-28, 32% say they have completely replaced alcohol with cannabis and 26% say it has greatly decreased their drinking, while only 5% say they drink more, down from 9% in January 2025.

In the final segment, Dr. Paul Shields, Chief Medical Officer at Vantage Hemp, returns for the weekly Vantage Standard segment and revisits topics from past episodes as the market waits to see what comes next.
