The daily limit is 10g THC equivalent per month and the monthly cap is 10g total THC equivalent per month — these are not suggestions but legally binding maximums enforced by every registered Cannabis-Sozialclub. For individuals under 18, access is entirely prohibited, and supplying minors carries heavy criminal penalties regardless of intent.

Never consume cannabis before driving, cycling, or operating any machinery — impairment affects coordination and reaction time. In case of negative reactions, contact medical services promptly and disclose your consumption — medical professionals need accurate information to help you.
