Legal Risks of showing Cannabis in Vaporizer Images

[All In]

What are the legal risks of showing actual cannabis flower inside of vaporizers that we sell on our website?

I have noticed virtually none of the major players in the market include actual flower in their product images,
however I am having trouble finding specific legal code at either state or national level
that would indicate as to why that would be a liability,
other than the substance itself being controlled at either state/federal level,
but of course is not what we are selling.

Any guidance is appreciated.

If you are shipping actual product that includes cannabis flower over state lines you are committing a federal crime so I'd not put images of cannabis directly on site as could be used in court against you.

But if no THC in the product there is nothing to worry about. But seems misleading to have pics of cannabis and it not be in the product, why bother?

We are not shipping any controlled substances.

Thanks for the reply
