Is Cannabis Legal in Germany? Legalisation Explained

The Bundestag has given the green light for the legalisation of cannabis from 1 April 2024. We welcome this step and would like to comment on a few points, including whether cannabis is now legal in Germany.

At home, possession of up to 50 grams as well as up to three female flowering plants per adult is permitted.

• Private individuals thus have the opportunity to grow their own plants very easily on their sunny balcony or, with a little more effort, indoors, and to have full control over product quality. We welcome the freedom to grow the plant yourself and thus to experience the cultivation of plants, which is healing in itself. Growing your own has the advantage that the origin and naturalness of cannabis can be ensured more easily.

From 1 July, clubs for non-commercial cultivation are to become possible. “Cultivation associations” for adults will be permitted, in which up to 500 members resident in Germany grow cannabis together..

• This is very good. The effect of THC on the brains of young people is not harmless, and strict protection of young people is therefore important. This does not exist as long as cannabis is illegal.

“With this law we will succeed in significantly pushing back the black market, in better protecting children and young people, and in having a safe product for consumers who consume and are older.”

• We are curious to see how both the official and the black market will develop, and we will definitely be following this closely.
