As of July 30, 2025, Connecticut law allows adult-use customers to purchase up to 1 full ounce of cannabis flower or its equivalent per transaction. Here’s what that might look like:
Pre-rolls:
Up to 28 pre-rolls at 1g each
Or up to 56 pre-rolls at 0.5g each
Vapes:
Typically, between 8 to 16 vape carts depending on whether they’re 0.5g or 1g, and their THC concentration
Exact limits vary by formulation (based on THC equivalency calculations)
Edibles:
Each serving may contain up to 5mg THC
You can purchase products totaling up to 1 ounce equivalency—roughly 560mg of THC in edible form
This may look like up to 5–6 standard packs of gummies, depending on package size
Mix & Match:
You can combine flower, vapes, edibles, and concentrates as long as the total purchase doesn’t exceed the 1-ounce flower equivalency limit

While most people might refer to any cannabis store as a “dispensary,” the terminology we use is guided by Connecticut’s cannabis regulations. Since Higher Collective is exclusively an adult-use establishment, we are classified as a cannabis retail store or cannabis shop.
In Connecticut, the term “dispensary” is reserved for medical cannabis dispensaries or stores with hybrid licenses, which serve both medical patients and adult-use customers. By adhering to these rules, we ensure that we’re fully compliant with state guidelines while continuing to provide a welcoming and inclusive experience for all adult-use customers.
If you have any questions, our team is happy to help clarify!
At Higher Collective, we’re committed to helping Connecticut residents and visitors navigate the state’s cannabis laws with confidence. Whether you’re visiting a local dispensary or exploring adult-use cannabis options, understanding your rights and responsibilities is key to responsible enjoyment. Our team stays current with the latest legal guidelines to ensure you can make informed decisions about cannabis consumption, purchase limits, and usage regulations.
