Connecticut Dispensary Laws

Currently, a person can possess 1.5 oz of cannabis legally. Until at least the end of 2022, retail sales will not be possible. Home growers are currently not allowed to do so. Since October 1, 2021, medical marijuana patients have been able to cultivate a maximum of 12 plants per household, including 3 mature plants and 3 immature plants. Starting July 1, 2023, all adults will be able to grow under the same rules.

Is weed legal in CT?

Weed is legal in Connecticut, but recreational dispensaries aren’t open for business quite yet. So for those asking, you can buy weed edibles in CT very soon. For now, visiting a MA dispensary is your best bet.

Does Connecticut have recreational cannabis dispensaries?

At the current time, Connecticut dispensaries are medical only. While adults over 21 in CT can possess up to 1.5 ounces of marijuana legally, there is not yet a legal place for recreational consumers to buy in the state. Medical patients in Connecticut, of course, are able to purchase from dispensaries in CT. While Massachusetts does not allow out-of-state medical marijuana cards, adults over 21 can purchase from a recreational dispensary like ours.

When will the first recreational dispensary in Connecticut open?

The frist recreational dispensary in CT will open “at the end of 2022.”

Can CT residents buy from MA dispensaries?

The good news is that Connecticut cannabis fans can buy legal weed right now in neighboring towns throughout Massachusetts. We’re just over the border in Douglas (about 30 mins from Providence), and can’t wait for your visit!

(Just a quick note: while possession of small amounts is legal in both Connecticut and Massachusetts, federal law still says you cannot bring marijuana over state borders. Any products you buy in Massachusetts should be consumed here, too.)
