Connecticut adult-use status
Connecticut's Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) says residents over 21 may legally possess and consume cannabis. The official portal reports that possession of 1.5 ounces is in effect and points to the state's current adult-use resources. See Connecticut Adult-Use Cannabis.
Possession and medical-program distinction
Adult-use does not mean the medical program disappeared: DCP lists medical marijuana as a separate program. Its comparison material distinguishes adult-use from registered-patient allotments. Do not add those categories together or infer that a medical registration is required for adult-use.
What to verify locally
DCP's cannabis laws page says its law list is not exhaustive and links statutes, regulations, and program policies. Use the state source for current limits and check local rules; this page does not authorize possession or use on federal property. See federal and state-law distinctions.
