Any news about the CT laws for growing?

Looking good CT !!!

It will become effective as of October 1st. Very strict limits, only 1 month's worth (not yet sure what that will be probably 1-2 ounces) and I doubt we will be able to cultivate, which means there will be no caretakers. Shame, my dream was to become one

You are correct. Cultivation will only be legal through licenses facilities dedicated to that purpose. No home-growing. See text from the Public Act below:

Sec. 10. (NEW) (Effective from passage) (a) No person may act as a producer or represent that such person is a licensed producer unless such person has obtained a license from the Commissioner of Consumer Protection pursuant to this section.
(b) The Commissioner of Consumer Protection shall determine the number of producers appropriate to meet the needs of qualifying patients in this state and shall adopt regulations, in accordance with chapter 54 of the general statutes, to provide for the licensure, standards and locations for producers in this state and specify the maximum number of producers that may be licensed in this state at any time. On and after the effective date of such regulations, the commissioner may license any person who applies for a license in accordance with such regulations, provided (1) such person is organized for the purpose of cultivating marijuana for palliative use in this state, (2) the commissioner finds that such applicant has appropriate expertise in agriculture and that such applicant is qualified to cultivate marijuana and sell, deliver, transport or distribute marijuana solely within this state pursuant to sections 1 to 15, inclusive, of this act, and (3) the number of producer licenses issued does not exceed the number appropriate to meet the needs of qualifying patients in this state, as determined by the commissioner pursuant to this subsection. At a minimum, such regulations shall:
(A) Indicate the maximum number of producers that may be licensed in this state at any time, which number shall not be less than three nor more than ten producers;
