Is it true that Hemp is illegal to grow in the United States?

No. A Wikipedia reference states the 2018 Farm Bill removed hemp from the Controlled Substances Act and legalized hemp production under restrictions, contradicting the claim that hemp is illegal to grow in the US. Other sources only imply prohibition was a past period.
