Additionally, New Frontier Data predicts that marijuana sales volume will reach $160.3 million by 2025. Small state, big cannabis appetite.
Quick math–Connecticut has 5,018 square miles. Divide the $160.3 million by that number and BANG! $31,945 per square mile will be spent on cannabis in Connecticut by 2025! We expect to see clouds of smoke hanging over the whole state when we come to visit.
Featured Cannabis Strain for Connecticuters:
Due to the legal requirement to grow indoors, we recommend a nice autoflower strain like Big Aurora Haze.
An original hybrid from the Medusa Seed Bank, the danky buds from your harvest of Big Aurora Haze are sure to help your day melt away.
Additionally, the indoor growing requirement will be better suited to seeds that flower on their own accord.
We also thought it was cool that some titans of 19th century industry did their finest innovating in Connecticut. We think Eli Terry, Samuel Colt, and Elias Howe would have enjoyed a nice stash of Big Aurora Haze, too.
