Montana HB 636 edible cap tracker
Montana’s HB 636 takes effect July 1, 2026. It cuts the per-serving THC cap on edibles from 10 mg to 5 mg; the 100 mg per-package limit is unchanged. Menus rarely publish per-serving dosing, so this tracker follows the line we can verify from product labels: edibles & drinks listed above the 100 mg package limit — products that can’t lawfully remain on shelves — and how that set changes as the July 1 sell-through deadline arrives.
This tracker is market intelligence, not legal advice. Operators should confirm compliance requirements with their own counsel or regulator.
By category
The wave
Over-cap SKUs still listed, by week. Market churn since the prior reading (not a bridge to the count above — new over-cap SKUs also appear): −4 over-cap left menus, +243 new compliant SKUs, ~0 reformulated.

How we count
- Labeled dose only. We count edible and drink SKUs whose package lists a total THC dose. Today only about 20% of edible SKUs publish one; the rest aren’t counted, so the real number is higher.
- Package total, from the label. The figure is the milligrams printed on the product — a package total, read from the menu, not lab-verified and not per-serving. HB 636’s 5 mg-per-serving cap isn’t consistently shown on menus, so we don’t claim to track it.
- THC food forms only. Hemp/CBD products and non-food forms (capsules, tinctures, RSO) are excluded — this is an edibles & drinks count, and the filter is conservative, so it under-counts rather than overstates.
- Aggregates, refreshed nightly. Counts roll up the whole Montanamarket; we don’t publish which store carries what. A companion law (HB 49) caps THC drinks tighter still — 0.5 mg/serving, 2 mg/package.
