According to Weedmaps, yes. Mississippi is just recently embarked on its own industrial hemp program. The state had maintained a prohibitive stance in relation to cannabis in this aspect until recently. Following the passing of HB 1547 in July 2019, CBD became legal in Mississippi, but CBD products must comply with very strict state restrictions.
Medicinal low-THC cannabis products became available to eligible patients in 2014. Qualifying patients only able to procure low-THC cannabis from the University of Mississippi's Medical Center's Department of Pharmacy Services. Adult-use cannabis is illegal.
Mississippi CBD Laws
Mississippi has one of the most restrictive stances towards cannabis in the country. Recreational marijuana legalization efforts have failed in committee, even though several bill proposals have been presented in the last few years.
Current Mississippi law allows for the medical use of low-THC cannabis for patients with qualifying conditions. Gov. Phil Bryant signed HB 1231, “Harper Grace's Law” in 2014 to enable patients who suffer from severe epileptic conditions to use and possess CBD oil or resin that contains at least 15% CBD and no more than 0.5% THC by weight. Patients can procure low-THC cannabis by doctor's recommendation and obtain it from the University of Mississippi's Medical Center's Department of Pharmacy Services. All CBD products under this law must be grown by the University of Mississippi's National Center for Natural Products Research.
In 2017, lawmakers passed SB 2610, which allowed the use of CBD in the research of treatment of seizures and other medical conditions but did not legalize it more broadly.
Following both the 2014 Farm Bill and the more recent 2018 Farm Bill, Mississippi lawmakers chose not to launch a state-regulated industrial hemp program. The state's only response to the federal change was the passage of HB 1547 on July 1, 2019. This law legalized CBD products, but they must contain at least 50 milligrams of CBD per milliliter, with no more than 2.5 milligrams of THC per milliliter. The product must have a minimum ratio of 20:1 CBD to THC.
HB 1547 also established the Mississippi Hemp Cultivation Task Force. This team, led by the Commissioner of Agriculture and Commerce, was tasked with undertaking a comprehensive study of hemp's potential costs and benefits. This clause of the law has a sunset date of July 1, 2020, so the team is expected to make recommendations by this time.
