The reason it's only legal as edibles is because the republicans in my state senate accidentally merged a bill that specified an allowable amount of THC in food meant to legalize delta 8 THC edibles. But the law never specified the type of THC and it placed no limit on the amount of edibles you could buy. They weren't intending to pass it yet but at the end of a session it got accidentally merged with a bunch of other bills that they were passing and got passed anyways. Theres a fun news story about it.

Now we have also passed the laws to legalize pot in general. But we don't have the specifics worked out as far as dispensary laws and liscensed growers yet so even though it's technically legal my understanding is that theres still no legal way to get outside of edibles.
