Individuals have the right, legally, to grow up to two cannabis plants...

I believe that's a misconception. There were a few loopholes, fixed by a recent law (three or four year ago IIRC) that nuked cannabis clubs.

I'd say it's mostly safe to grow one of those auto-flowering seeds in your balcony, providing you use some translucid plastic, but telling the police "I have the right to grow two plants" seems like a weak defense.




Cannabis clubs have not been "nuked"; I'm writing this comment from one of more than a thousand across the country. Also growing plants on your balcony is forbidden; they can't be visible from outside.


Spanish here, can confirm.


It’s a de facto rule, it’s up to a judge to decide whether a person had intention of trafficking when found in possession of narcotics, trafficking is the only criminal offence. It’s common believe that 2 plants are OK for personal use.
