The Birth of Med-A-Tron Homegrown

Med-A-Tron Homegrown was founded with a simple yet powerful vision: to empower individuals to take control of their own cannabis cultivation. Our founder, Gabe Zamorano, has dedicated his life to breaking down barriers in the cannabis industry, making quality cultivation knowledge and resources accessible to everyone.

For 25 years, Gabe worked as a welder, grinding day in and day out. But his true passion had been growing—both in plants and in purpose. Hidden among his backyard tomato vines, his cannabis plants flourished in secret. What started as a personal journey to find a natural alternative to pharmaceuticals soon evolved into a calling.

A Stand Against Corporate Cannabis

When cannabis legalization came to Connecticut, Gabe saw an opportunity to bring high-quality cannabis to the community. He applied for a dispensary license, confident in his ability to grow superior products. But like many small growers, he was shut out by corporations with deep pockets and little growing experience. Instead of backing down, Gabe shifted gears—if he couldn’t open a dispensary, he’d teach others how to grow their own.

That’s when Med-A-Tron Homegrown was born. More than just a store, it became a hub for education, empowerment, and independence. Our goal has never been to just sell products—we provide the knowledge and support to help people grow their own high-quality cannabis at home.

Our Mission: A Homegrown Revolution

At Med-A-Tron, we believe cannabis should be cultivated by the people, for the people. The corporate cannabis industry often prioritizes profits over quality, using questionable cultivation methods and cutting corners. Connecticut has some of the highest mold allowances in the country, and many dispensaries use microwave-drying techniques that strip the plant of its true potential. We’re here to change that.

We provide premium seeds, hydroponic equipment, and expert guidance to help growers—from beginners to experts—cultivate cannabis the right way. Through hands-on classes, one-on-one advice, and a passionate community, we ensure that every grower has the resources they need to succeed.

Looking Ahead

Med-A-Tron Homegrown is more than just a business; it’s a movement. We envision a future where homegrown cannabis is the norm, where small-batch, high-quality cultivation replaces mass-produced, corporate-controlled weed. Our dream? To make home growing so accessible that one day, businesses like ours won’t even be necessary.

Until then, we’re here to support, educate, and inspire. Because cannabis is more than just a plant—it’s freedom, knowledge, and empowerment. Join us, and be part of the homegrown revolution.
