Getting started

The unit is the container

Every other spine made size the variable A per-container limit does not So a larger container is not more permissive And splitting changes the answer Which puts a container catalog unusually close to the rule The caveat belongs in the same breath So it is not a rule for your product Read it against the edibles property And then read the second finding That is a shelf gap, not a data gap References

A 59 mL jar and a 473 mL jar carry the same ceiling. Which no other rule in this library does.

Every other spine made size the variable

Capacity by material, serving size by reference amount, type size by panel area. In each of them a bigger container moved the answer.

A per-container limit does not

The figure in the pending amendment to the hemp definition is expressed as milligrams combined total per container. The container is the unit, not the denominator.

So a larger container is not more permissive

Which is the opposite of the instinct. On a volume-based rule you buy a bigger jar to carry more; on a per-container rule the jar size is irrelevant.

And splitting changes the answer

The same quantity in two containers is two containers, each with its own ceiling. The arithmetic depends on how many packages you fill, which is a packaging decision rather than a formulation one.

Which puts a container catalog unusually close to the rule

Normally we are describing a vessel for a product that the law measures some other way. Here the vessel is the measurement.

The caveat belongs in the same breath

This is a pending statutory amendment, it sits inside a definition rather than in a packaging regulation, and it concerns hemp-derived cannabinoid products rather than state-licensed cannabis.

So it is not a rule for your product

Nothing on these pages tells a reader what their product may contain. The mechanism is what this property is about, and the mechanism is worth understanding whatever governs you.

Read it against the edibles property

There, 200 percent of a reference amount made the container decide the label, and one size smaller changed everything. Here size does nothing. The two are the clean inverse of each other.

And then read the second finding

Which is less abstract: our smallest container in this group is 30 mL, and five of the eight leaves need a few millilitres.

That is a shelf gap, not a data gap

We know the sizes and we have published them. There simply is no concentrate container here.

7 U.S.C. 1639o as amended by Pub. L. 119-37, division B, title VII, section 781. Inside the definition of "hemp-derived cannabinoid product", an exclusion at (iv) for "any final hemp-derived cannabinoid products containing--" includes a limb reading "(III) greater than 0.4 milligrams combined total per container of-- (aa) total tetrahydrocannabinols (including tetrahydrocannabinolic acid)", followed by a further limb covering other cannabinoids with similar effects. This is a pending amendment: the effective-date note reads "the amendment made by section 781(1) and (2) is effective 365 days after the enactment of Pub. L. 119-37, which was approved Nov. 12, 2025." It sits in a definition, not in a packaging regulation, and it concerns hemp-derived cannabinoid products rather than state-licensed cannabis. law.cornell.edu

Measured 19 October 2026. The smallest container in this group is 30 mL and there are 3 of them. Distillate, shatter, wax, rosin and live resin are sold by the gram in containers of a few millilitres, so five of this group's eight leaves have nothing on this shelf in the right size. Flower, pre-roll and hash are served by the jars.

Written from 7 U.S.C. 1639o, including the pending amendment made by Pub. L. 119-37 division B title VII section 781, and from the catalog as it stood on 19 October 2026. The per-container figure quoted here sits inside a definition of hemp-derived cannabinoid product as an exclusion, it comes from a pending amendment in a fast-moving area, and it is not a packaging regulation. It says nothing about what a state-licensed cannabis product may contain. Check the current text before relying on any of it. Our smallest container in this group is 30 mL, which is several times what a gram of concentrate needs.
