smilestyle 6,029 Report post Posted November 29, 2021 I don´t think so. As far as I know, it will be an experiment. More like the dispensaries in some states. You can enter at the age of 21. There will be an " evaluation programm". It´s not bad at all. Thank you, "Deutscher Hanfverband".(Biggest german cannabis lobby) But it has nothing to do, with growing your own meds and tokes. If the evaluation, doesn´t show the "wished" results, it could be turned back in a minute. It´s one step forward. Growing your own is and will be illegal. smilestyle Luxembourg has changed to " 5 plants per address". 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
santero 9,399 Report post Posted November 30, 2021 yeah, duh. that's why i said "lets hope" (i don't believe it either.) they will especially persecute the ones trying to grow their own. its not a legalisation, its a 'marketisation', like everywhere else. (as if it would change anything for us who never needed anyones permission ) 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smilestyle 6,029 Report post Posted December 3, 2021 You are right and we had discussed that topic, entre nous. Only humor helps. Adsurb,absurd german cannabis politics: - The official group. German companies cooperating with foreign companies to produce medical weed in germany. For pharmacies. For patients. NO patient has the right, to grow his/her own weed, even if he/she is an official patient. The price is very high. It´s a good deal, for the involved companies, for the pharmacies, for the state (taxes). But, there is still a "small" problem. Ill people don´t have much money. You have to be serious ill, to get a prescription.Statutory health insurance pays for it.If you´re halfdead, because your pain is killing you since years and the other prescripted pills didn´t help. You have to find a " marihuana friendly" physician. No big deal in a big city.....but in small villages...nearly impossible. - Rich people. They "buy" the physician. Problem solved. - " dangerous homegrower". Return to santeros post. smilestyle 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misterdirt 11,960 Report post Posted December 18, 2021 At least one state in the US attempted legalization that would have benefited exactly 10 families who would be the only ones permitted to grow it. That attempt didn't work. In the meantime, Malta, of all places, legalized a bit. What I heard was you can have up to 7 grams (gasp!) in your possession. Growers can have 4 plants and up to 50 grams of dried product at home. It would be very difficult to stay under those limits. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was our state to the south - Ohio. I think they'll be legal soon enough. I don't know if you've traveled 23 between MI and OH anytime during the last couple of years, but 50% or more of the billboard advertisements are for recreational dispensaries, aimed at Ohioans. Pretty soon I expect to see them taking over the locations of fireworks stands. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea I think they will too, if they are smart, don't think they are dummies, losing all that tax money to Michigan. Fireworks stands ha! One dispensary took over a Pizza joint another took over the Vet shop right by me. Michigan is getting a bit overrun with dispensaries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
