Germany plans to allow 50g/month for adult consumers. Is that enough and why is it not? (self.trees)

I'm obviously joking in the title, but I'm serious with the question. Besides the fact that I as an adult should be able to consume as much as I want at any given time (I'm only hurting myself, if at all), I was wondering what you guys think about that amount.

Personally, I feel that for me it would be more than enough, but then again I don't see how they came to that number. What are your thoughts?

Damn lol I just did the math and that would be 1.75 oz! Not an insane amount but definitely a lot (for me) in a single month.

I think all of these “limits” are inherently arbitrary. I would imagine their goal is to roughly separate consumers from sellers? Like if you’re buying more than 50g a month it’s more likely that you’re not consuming it yourself and selling it to others? Just a guess!

For medicinal users (I've talked to a few), 50g is not enough, but "a good start". FYI, for younger people (was it 18-25 years? not sure) the monthly amount is half of it (25g).
