Why, you also only ever buy one liter of milk, and otherwise should seek counsel? Orn lets make it less abstract and say one sixpack of beer?

That very much depends on the Bundesland where that city is located. Good luck doing that in Munich. Personally I got prosecuted for (ordering!) 3g of weed, although later that got folded. Still trouble, though. Also I can still get problems with my driving license for that same amount (even though that alleged possession was in no way connected with driving any vehicle).

The amount used to depend on the state, in Berlin up to 16g was considered a small amount for personal consumption.

Depends on the location, don’t try that in Bavaria

an ounce is about 14 grams. 5 is slightly more than an eighth. if you don’t live near the dispensary and want some for a month or a few months an eighth is not really that much. i don’t think seeking help is an appropriate response here.

An ounce is 28 grams. But your point stands.

yeah i see ads for 14g all the time and for some reason that stuck in my head as an ounce but 3.5 grams is an eighth of an ounce so 5 is slightly more than that. either way more than 5g is a reasonable amount to have on you if you are going to buy it for a longer timeframe.

An ounce is 28 grams, 5g isn’t that much flower at all in the grand scheme of things.

I presume it’s an attempt at stopping dealing, maybe to minors? But it feels asinine to have such a limit. Like another poster says, should this extend to a single crate of beer? One bottle of spirits? One pouch of tobacco?

Having a 5g limit just means I’m going to make more frequent trips to the shop to purchase more cannabis, just let me buy a pound and leave me to it.

That and possibly seeking out cannabis with a higher THC concentration.

True, as much as that’s not quite what I’d do because I like to just maintain a high, I’m sure a lot of folks would. Hell, on the weekend I’d switch it up to the higher %s to be fair.

NL has this same rule of no more than around 5g, I’m not 100% how much the exact limit is but it’s nearby 5g.

That's a few joints as best, are we really declaring people as hopeless addicts for having more than a handful of joints on them? This seems similar to saying someone should never be allowed to have more than an 1/8th of alcohol on them at any time. Seems silly when put in perspective of what drugs are quantities are already legal.

5g is way more than a few joints.

I smoke weed frequently (daily user).

I go through 5g in maybe two weeks.

I use frequently as well, you must roll shorties. (Non-infused) pre rolls are typically sold with 1g each for reference.

Absolutely I do!

My point is if you are going through 5g in a matter of days, you probably have a problem usage!

I guess my point is we allow people to buy handles of alcohol (a much more problematic and harmful drug) at a time, even though consumption at that rate is also problematic. So why should we treat marijuana differently?

What is this "a city"? Berlin? Definitely not in Bavaria.
