The Connecticut House has passed legislation removing THC limits on cannabis products, according to CT Mirror. The timing suggests momentum toward product flexibility even as the state continues rolling out its adult-use framework—which currently includes 79 open retail locations, 22 cultivation facilities, and 13 manufacturers.

The move appears to reverse a prior legislative reinstatement of THC limits on flower in May, signaling internal debate over potency regulation. It arrives amid active oversight of Connecticut's recent tribal-state cannabis compact with the Mashantucket Pequot tribe and ongoing retailer concerns about strict discount restrictions that operators say constrain business viability.

Watch whether the Senate aligns with the House position or revisits potency caps, and whether any new limits apply selectively to certain product categories or consumption methods.
