Frequently Asked Questions

What is required for your initial appointment at The Green Leaf?

  • Be a legal resident of Connecticut
  • Have at least one of the qualifying medical conditions per CT state laws
  • Provide us with medical records that state your qualifying medical condition (except in the case of PTSD, which could be diagnosed at your initial visit)

I have never been diagnosed with PTSD, is this something that can be done during the consultation?

Yes. PTSD is an anxiety disorder that can develop after an individual experiences or witnesses a traumatic event. This traumatic event can be re-experienced in the following ways: unwanted upsetting memories, nightmares, flashbacks, emotional distress, physical reactivity, avoidance, isolation, etc. Prior to your consultation you will fill out paperwork with a series of questions regarding your history. The provider will then review the paperwork with you during your consultation and make recommendations for treatment. 

I had my consultation, whats next?

  • You will receive an email from the CT Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) confirming that you have been recommended into the Medical Marijuana Program.
  • You will need to create an account so you can  access the online registration system. Go to https://www.biznet.ct.gov/AccountMaint/Login.aspx and click the “Log In/Out” button in the top left corner. Log in to  your account with the email address you supplied at your certification appointment.
  • Verify that the information submitted is accurate and answer a series of  certification questions.
  • Once this is done the wait is about 4 weeks to receive a temporary card  via email.
  • The temporary card will get you into the dispensary to purchase  products.  A permanent card is then mailed to your home address 4-6  weeks after receiving the temporary.
  • The certification is good for one year and should be renewed in the 11th month to avoid any lapse in coverage.



How much marijuana can I have on hand?

The maximum allowable monthly amount is  3.5 ounces unless your provider indicates a lesser amount is  appropriate. 

What are my options if i do not want to smoke or "get high"?

There are many different options for administration other than smoking. There are edibles, sublinguals, tinctures, extracts and topicals that may provide great benefits without smoking. Discussing this with the pharmacists at your chosen dispensary can be very helpful in determining your best options. 


How do I choose a dispensary?

Your dispensary should feel welcoming. You should feel supported by a medically knowledgeable staff, feel safe and at ease with discussing your options for treatment. You should not feel rushed, confused or judged. Your dispensary should offer a menu of a wide variety of strains and administration options.
