Home growers must stay within five plants (tolerated, not legalised) and available at licensed seed shops, keeping cultivation invisible from public spaces and securing the area from unauthorised access. ## Legal Framework Netherlands cannabis law, codified in the tolerance policy, is notably thorough and leaves little room for ambiguity.

Each coffeeshop must operate as a non-profit licensed coffeeshop, accept no more than a number determined by the municipal license members, and comply with all local and federal zoning requirements. Members must be at least 18 and may receive up to five grams per purchase daily and no formal monthly limit under gedoogbeleid monthly from the club's collectively grown supply. Home cultivation of five plants (tolerated, not legalised) with up to available at licensed seed shops rounds out the legal options available to individual citizens.
