What cannabis legalization in Germany will look like | DW News
Germany is pulling back on plans for a broad commercialization of cannabis following some political opposition, as well as concerns from EU. Government ministers presented the new plan this week, calling for a ‘model-project’ to precede any further commercial sales. New legislation would otherwise legalize possession of up to 25 grams of cannabis and allow private growth of up three plants. It would also permit so-called ‘Cannabis Clubs’ for adult consumption.
Under the new concept, a nationwide commercialization of cannabis would only come after a 5-year model project with a more limited scale. The exact outlines of the model, including the area involved, have yet to be clarified. But the plan calls for scientific- and policy-evaluation along the way, with results to be offered to the EU.

Why have a 5 year model-project? just look at Colorado and Washington 11 years…
I fully believe if Germany reaches full legalization, they will produce THE best and MOST potent Cannabis in the world. Nothing comes close to German engineering. Storz & Bickel is a good example of that.
They turned a whole city from bankruptcy to a thriving city here nextdoor to Detroit all thanks to the dispensaries there.
😂😂 Realy germany come 😂😂😂i dont Think soon the gonna have IT that on the way😂😂😂😂😂
Gut gemacht mein Deutschland! 🇩🇪👌🤞🖖🤘🙌❤️☘️😇✌️
In Poland 3 years of jail for weed possession 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Something to cheer them up after they shut down their nuclear power plants 😛
This 5 year "model plan" is DUMB! It ruins plans for the WHOLE EU, if not the WHOLE WORLD because one dumb country decided to change the plans and force a dumb 5 YEARS waiting period before rolling out a SLOW & LIMITED legalization! Germany is hella slow and dumb when it comes to legislation and regulations! No wonder German government REFUSES to legalize a MEDICINE while ALLOWING & PROMOTING a 1000 times more deadly drugs! ALCOHOL & TOBACCO! Which is consumed by many kids under 18 (way more than canabis ever will have) cuz Germany is alcoholic country! This dumb plan literally stopping the progress of legalization of MEDICINE in one sector to avoid the crash of POISON in another one! Germany literally choose most retarded reasons to delay legalization of medicine that was banned by rasist America to control people of color!
Is Germany both Alcoholic and Rasist country!? If no, then legalize already!
Dumb rasist boomers! 🤦♂️
This is huge for Europe, once Germany does this the rest of Europe will follow suit.
A clear example of EU masters telling a nation what they’re not allowed to do
The Unitedish Kingdom should go for it. Probably the only one benefit of leaving the EU. Am sure the fishermen would have some objection about that as well.
Sounds like the Germans are chickening out tbh
It will porbably take 100 years before it will be legalized it here it Norway, if it ever will happen in the first place.
EU laws sucks. can we change em?
Amazing they can roll out world wide a so called vaccination jab after 6 months that had no real trial. Yet humans have been taking / using cannabis back when the people were erecting The great pyramids. Yet they still want more scientific research done on cannabis ffs just give it back to the people.
Oh wow yes such struggle over legalizing a PLANT meanwhile I can get all sorts of dangerous mind altering drugs from my doctor 😆
It will be not be completely legal just "half". For medical usecases it’s allowed but not in this easy way like in some states of america.
But anyways we help people to become legal patients in Germany 😊
Bad idea, Germany already smells terrible because of all the Arabs smoking it. They should actually increase punishment instead
Climate change is destroying the world and y’all be worrying about people smoking a plant 🙄
UK needs to get on this living in the dark ages 🤔🤔🤔
Monopoly isn’t good, illegal cannabis will be the leading market for cannabis users until it is fully legalised and given open market with some regulation.
This change is just for the rich elitist to legally smoke, probably.
Here in uk its still ljke the middle ages totally outlawed 😢
Germans need weed more than anyone 😂
In every neighbourhood there at at least 5 dealers most with really good reasonable prices….I don’t care if you legalise it who ever wants to smoke smokes even in public no one bothers you
Hope for Poland🫡
UK loses at everything

This week, mere days after the historic press conference in Germany, policymakers in Frankfurt and Offenbach both indicated publicly that their jurisdictions will pursue legal localized cannabis sales as a means to combat the unregulated market.
“If the consumer is no longer stigmatized and criminalized, the discussions about risks can be conducted in a completely different way,” stated Artur Schroers, Head of the Drugs Department of the City of Frankfurt, according to Frankfurter Allgemeine.
Both Frankfurt and Offenbach reportedly issued declarations of intent to pursue the pilot programs.
However, both jurisdictions will need to wait until a legalization measure is formally introduced and adopted, and comprehensive information becomes available regarding how jurisdictions can apply and what requirements will be involved.
EU is such a trash country Q_Q
"We expected this" yeah because you bribed them to have the monopoly…….. Overgrow the governments & eu tokers!
a 5 year project? too slow.
F off eu
LOOKS LIKE DRUGS ARE WINNING THE WAR ON DRUGS 😅
soo, in onther words, the dealers will now deal in seeds, since u cant rly sustain urself with 3 plants.
I need weed, who help
Munch? Plsss 🥦
I’m confused, EU doesn’t allow legalisation of cannabis in EU mmmh isn’t Holland part of EU and weed has been legal there like for ages …
Any type of drug is a poison for humans. It can kills and wipe out the humanity forever and even far dangerous than nukes. Humans should not allow or make advertise any type of drugs
Only one person gets rich in Germany, what?
When legal I wanna try it as sleeping aid after work. Would it be legal to drive after 14 hours though?
Noch is nix durch, erstmal entkriminalisieren.
that plan sux
"Gesundheit mein Deutschland" Sicher! 👍🙌💶💙🇩🇪
Not good.
can someone tell me where can you get weed in Germany as a tourist? Passau exactly
EU hates fun. They have been against anything fun.
As a German and a medical patient when I found out about this I legit jumped for joy because people don’t understand how much it helps people like me
Legal all over Canada 🇨🇦 it’s the only good thing JT has done haha
so maybe in 10 years ill be able to smoke a "joint" in poland, I hope to be dead by then smh
Nein! Alles Verboten in Deutscheteland was denken Sie? Alles nichts gut hier alles musst kontrolliert 😉
Well, here in Europe, the state of Germany was the biggest obstacle of legalization.
