Spain

Private cultivation tolerated

Cultivation for personal use in private spaces is generally tolerated as long as plants are not visible from public areas. Visible plants can trigger administrative fines, and larger grows risk criminal charges for trafficking. Selling any homegrown product is a crime.

Private use decriminalized

Consumption and possession of cannabis in private spaces are not criminal offenses in Spain. Public consumption or possession is an administrative infraction carrying fines starting at several hundred euros under the public-security law. There is no legal quantity threshold — the context (private vs public) is decisive.

Sale prohibited; clubs grey zone

Commercial sale of cannabis is illegal in Spain. Cannabis social clubs operate in a grey zone under association law, mainly in Catalonia and the Basque Country, distributing to members under the shared-consumption doctrine; court rulings have progressively narrowed their room to operate. Tourist-oriented clubs in cities like Barcelona are not legal dispensaries.
