Access to legal cannabis flower and hashish in Germany carries an obligation to consume responsibly, and ignorance of the rules is not a defence. The daily limit is 25 grams and the monthly cap is 50 grams — these are not suggestions but legally binding maximums enforced by every registered growers' association.

Operating vehicles or heavy equipment after consumption is both illegal and genuinely dangerous, regardless of your tolerance level.
