Every growers' association must register as a non-profit registered association, capping membership at 500 and ensuring complete financial transparency through regular audits. Members must be at least 18 years old and may receive cannabis flower and hashish up to 25 grams per day and 50 grams per month, with all dispensing electronically recorded.
