Part I

Federal Legal Standing

All plant materials distributed by Elite Shipped Clones are classified as “Hemp” under federal law. We operate strictly within the parameters of the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018 (2018 Farm Bill).

“The term ‘hemp’ means the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of that plant, including the seeds thereof and all derivatives… with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis.”

— 7 U.S.C. § 1639o(1)

Clean Stock Protocol

Hop Latent Viroid (HLVd) is the single greatest threat to modern genetics. Our facility maintains ISO-standard quarantine protocols to ensure you start clean.

HLVd Negative Status

Mother plants are tested monthly via qPCR (Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction) to ensure zero presence of HLVd, LCV, and CanCV. Any positive result triggers an immediate quarantine and elimination protocol.

Sterile Propagation

Cuttings are processed in HEPA-filtered environments using surgical-grade instruments. We utilize single-use sanitation cycles (bleach/alcohol rotation) to prevent cross-contamination between cultivars.

Common Questions

Legal & Safety FAQ

Common questions regarding the legality of shipping cannabis genetics.

Yes. Under the 2018 Farm Bill (Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018), cannabis material containing less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC on a dry weight basis is federally classified as “industrial hemp.” Since our clones are in a vegetative state and contain non-detectable levels of THC, they are fully compliant with federal law and can be shipped across state lines via USPS and UPS.

We prepare for this. Every box includes a visible Notice to Law Enforcement, a copy of our nursery license, and a recent Certificate of Analysis (COA) proving the plant material is hemp. In the rare event of an inspection, these documents provide immediate verification of legality, and the package is typically released without issue.

Yes. The limit applies to Delta-9 THC specifically. Vegetative clones (immature plants) do not produce significant cannabinoids until the flowering stage. Therefore, they test well below the 0.3% threshold, ensuring they remain federally legal commodities during transport.

Because we operate under Federal Hemp Law, we are able to ship to all 50 states, regardless of the state’s specific recreational or medical marijuana laws. The supremacy of the 2018 Farm Bill protects the interstate commerce of hemp products.
