Since then, the Green Dot Labs team has tirelessly refined and honed its exceptional, ultra-premium cultivation model – marking its dedication to producing the purest reflections of cannabis’ abundant potential flavors, effects, and wellness benefits.

Green Dot Labs’ tireless work has paid off, earning the brand an obsessive following among the most discerning cannabis consumers.

Green Dot Labs will begin offering its enormous, growing, world-class library of exclusive strains to cannabis lovers in Arizona in September 2025.
