Starting on New Years Day, each member of a Swiss household may legally grow four cannabis plants. So, if four people live together, 16 plants may be grown – but each person must tend their own plants.

‘But one person can not start growing more than four plants just by claiming they live with other people.

‘In this case, these other people have to actually be cultivating the plants themselves.

‘This means attending to the plant in such a way as to make it grow.’

Swiss daily Le Matin quipped: ‘This basically means that you can grow four more plants for every housemate you have – just as long as they know how to hold a watering can.’

The rules will apply in the cantons of Vaud, Neuchatel, Geneva and Fribourg from January 1 next year.

    That is great news, prohibition of a drug that helps people and doesn’t hurt one’s body is plain stupid.

    “The sun comes up
    in the morning,
    Shines that light around.
    One day, without no warning,
    Things start jumping up
    from the ground.

    Well, homegrown’s
    all right with me.
    Homegrown
    is the way it should be.
    Homegrown
    is a good thing.
    Plant that bell
    and let it ring. ” – Neil Young

    yo, 4 plants a person and this dude claims he smokes a pound a month and that is not enough for him, lol…your the reason people have negative assumptions of marijuana relating it to some idiot like you thinking you got swag or your blunts are all cali kushed out… if you can not sustain yourself off 4 individual plants then sorry “homie” you don’t know what your doing…Done correctly you could pull a pound a plant… I feel sorry for you crop if 4 plants is only producing a pound…I would then assume by those numbers that your plants are of poor quality and you think you smoke that cali kush…
