Connecticut's legal marijuana industry is facing a shortage of product due to a lack of licensed growers, while neighboring New York is dealing with an excess of supply. The federal ban on shipping marijuana across state lines prevents a simple solution to the problem. Connecticut's Department of Consumer Protection attributes the shortage to a temporary issue as new licenses for growers are processed. Meanwhile, New York is slowly resolving its oversupply issue as more dispensaries open. Both states are navigating the challenges of balancing supply and demand within their borders, with retailers concerned about potential future supply gluts.
