SInce the legalization, I keep getting home-grown weed for free from friends.
Cause you can legally keep 3 plants, but only legally have 50g of dried weed at home. So everyone gives away the surplus after harvesting (which is also illegal, but impossible to control).

I'm in Berlin and half of my neighbors have these 3m tall weed plants on their balconies. 3-4 usually, and nobody really cares. I wonder how the winter is going to be when everybody suddenly has half a kilo of weed...

In Berlin you could smoke weed in front of cops before the legalization.
They've got bigger things to worry about.

Yeah. I don't mean that. But how is it going to look like in bars when everybody suddenly has hundreds or so grams of weed...

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

Considering that smoking is usually prohibited in bars, not much different.

I'm not sure what you mean.
Why would it affect what bars look like?

They are implying that when faced with the choice of paying €30 for a couple of pints or smoking free weed that many will choose the latter which will impact alcohol sales in bars to a significant degree.

I was joking here a bit, but:

  • A big crowd of people has suddenly a lot of weed.
  • People in Berlin like to go to bars and like to smoke weed (a fact)
  • Suddenly there's a lot more weed, many people more are smoking it either in the bar (allowed in a few places at least in Neukolln) or outside the bar (about every other place outside Neukolln)
  • Fun.

So it was my take on laughing a bit about the winter 2024...
