  • Cannabis is defined as anything containing the psychoactive THC (including vaping of cannabis-derived liquids).
  • a maximum jail term of 15 years for anyone who deals in cannabis, or provides it to a child.
  • Anyone who smokes cannabis in public, or too close to a window, or “in the immediate presence of any non-consenting adult person” may be jailed for up to two years.
  • Smoking around children can result in up to four years in jail.
Legal limits for personal, legal use at home are set to:
  • unlimited for seeds and seedlings
  • four flowering plants for those living alone, or eight for homes with two adults or more
  • 600 grams of dried cannabis if you live alone, or 1.2 kilograms in homes with two or more adults.
  • In public places, possession is set to 100 grams of cannabis or one flowering plant.

They already sent me an email, asking for pubic comments and I told them my pubics have nothing to say on the matter.
 
I still say, 1.2 kg for 2 adults is one very happy weekend.

Yeah.
Looking at prices floating around recently, at R200 per gram, 1.2kg is R240000-00 worth of supply.
Not even sure how that quantifies as 'personal use' but hey, if it's legal it's legal lol.
 
I am glad that I have the opportunity to order marijuana for personal use.

@Stew this is what I get when I click on above link

I did a search and found it. Here's a new link https://dearsouthafrica.co.za/?s=cannabis
 
I cannot smoke it and haven't done so since I was a kid. Edibles are a different story, 25mg per evening helps me sleep and I have zero pain, I also find South Park to be even funnier XD.

There is a shop close to me in Paulshof which sells premium edibles and designer joints. Prices seem to be the best so far.
