Quick Glance: Germany Legalizes Home Cultivation: Embracing Cannabis Users in Society
- In a large grey facility outside Dresden, Demecan grows medical cannabis. A new law decriminalizes possession and home cultivation of cannabis. Critics raise health concerns, while proponents praise the quality and tax revenues.
- Under the new law, adults can possess up to 25g in public, hold 50g at home, and grow up to three plants. Private 'cannabis clubs' can supply 500 members on a limited basis starting in July.
- Controlling THC potency is limited, especially for those under 21. To avoid 'drug tourism,' recreational users can only grow cannabis at home or obtain it through 'cannabis clubs.'
- Passing the law was contentious. The government aims to curb the black market and ensure product quality, but opponents fear health risks, especially for youth. The public is divided on legalization, with a slim majority against the law.
