As a Connecticut cannabis connoisseur, I have tried just about every strain the major four growers have put out. I know who’s got the goods and who’s fronting. As far as 2024 goes, CTPharma and AGL have dominated the market when it comes to quality. Here’s some of their best strains grown in Connecticut for the summer of 2024. As always, taste is subjective, but  these are enjoyable and tasty strains with lovely effects.

Users might initially feel a euphoric and cerebral high from the GMO side, but those purple genetics will soon have you melting into your favorite chair.
