Overview
In Connecticut, marijuana has been legalized for both recreational and medical use. Adults 21 and older are allowed to possess and use marijuana within certain limits: up to 1.5 ounces on their person and up to 5 ounces in a locked container at home or in a vehicle's glove box or trunk. The state has established a regulated market for cannabis, which includes licensed dispensaries that serve both recreational consumers and medical patients. This framework aims to ensure safe access to cannabis and control its distribution effectively.
Regarding specific cannabinoids, Delta-9 THC, the primary psychoactive component in cannabis, is legally permissible under the state’s cannabis laws. Delta-8 THC, another cannabinoid derived typically from hemp, is also legal but must comply with the same regulations as other cannabis products in Connecticut. THCA, which is non-psychoactive until decarboxylated into THC, falls under the same legal and regulatory guidelines. CBD products derived from hemp with less than 0.3% THC are also legal and widely available in the state. These products range from dietary supplements to personal care products, reflecting the broad acceptance and integration of non-psychoactive cannabis-derived products into the market.
