First Interim Report
Where the law and everyday reality diverge
The ongoing community evaluation already shows where perception, everyday life, and legal logic do not align.
The CannaSelection Community Study
The official evaluation is important. But by itself, it does not reveal how consumption reality, everyday life, and perception of the law are actually experienced in the community. This ongoing survey complements the picture with direct perspectives from practice.
Every additional participation makes the community perspective more robust.
First Interim Report
The ongoing community evaluation already shows where perception, everyday life, and legal logic do not align.
When cannabis is discussed, reported on, or decided upon in Germany, the community must not remain invisible. This study addresses precisely this point: it supplements the official evaluation with real-world perspectives from everyday life, consumption, and legal perception.
The survey sheds light on what is often neglected in many debates: real-world perspectives from everyday life and consumption practices.
The study is not a one-off project, but rather intended as an ongoing community survey with regular interim evaluations.
The broader the participation and reach, the more robust the classification will be for clubs, editorial offices, and public debates.
Community Reach
We are hoping for support from CSCs, portals, and individuals to share this survey within their networks. Because community data can only help with classification if it is made visible.
Share the study in your CSC and among your friends. Because only together are we strong!
The ongoing evaluation already shows where community reality, perception of the law, and public discourse diverge.
A central signal for the gap between regulations and lived practice.
Especially regarding guidance and risk communication, many see significant room for improvement.
This too is an important community perspective for the public debate.
A clear signal of real consumer behavior and the ongoing need for education.
This survey is based on an open community survey. It is not representative of Germany as a whole, but it provides an important additional perspective on consumption reality, everyday life, and perceptions of the law within the community. The results are continuously evaluated and published transparently in the Grow Lab.

The more people participate, the more robust the community perspective on consumption, everyday life, and partial legalization in Germany becomes. If this view is not collected and shared, it too often remains invisible in public discourse.
