That’s somewhat misleading. It is allowed in the form of non-profit clubs selling giving to members who pay a membership fee for personal use. It’s just commercial sale that’s banned.
Edit to correct the above statement and to add that the clubs are only gonna be legal in July.
So people can sell their cannabis to other members of the club? Whould this allow people to grow their 3 permitted plants for selling to others even though its only allowed to grow them for personal use?
Not quite accurate. Selling is still illegal, even for the clubs. You pay a monthly fee to the club and the club is giving you a monthly allowance of up to 50g.
Yes, this is selling with extra steps but it circumvents EU stuff about not being allowed to commercialise cannabis.

Ok. The news did mention clubs but not in details

I haven’t looked too much into it, but iirc the clubs would be able to grow their own plants, independent of the allowance that individuals have for home-growing. Here’s a (German) article about how the clubs are supposed to work, that seems to confirm that, even if it’s not spelled out explicitly: https://www.wiwo.de/unternehmen/dienstleister/cannabis-legalisierung-mitgliedsausweis-und-schichtplaene-so-funktionieren-die-cannabis-clubs-/29733674.html
Also, see the other comments on mine, some good clarifications in there!

Good clarification, I edited my comment accordingly, thanks!
Clubs are only permitted to distribute in juli.
Oh, I wasn’t actually aware of that, thanks! Added it to my comment as well
What about in Decembei?
What about it?
