Weed in Malmö, Sweden: my experience

Hi, smokers! You probably know that cannabis laws and regulations vary from one county to another, so let’s go deeper and try to understand what is going on with weed in Malmö. My post covers info about weed laws, regulations, general attitude of locals and cops, hash VS weed availability and pricing, failures and success in searching weed in Malmö.

So, I just touched down back home from Malmö a couple of days ago, still got that fresh buzz in my head as I’m sparking up this joint of girl scout cookies strain. Man, Malmö was lit — couldn't have had a better time without those dank buds keepin' me company.

Coppin' Weed in Malmö: The New Wave

So here’s the scoop on how folks are gettin' their green in Malmö. Alex gave me some info — big-time cannabis dealers are all about that darknet life, coppin' their supply from shady onion sites like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They flip it to locals and tourists alike. But if you’re just in Malmö for a few days, tryin' to navigate the darknet and waitin' on cannabis shipments ain't it.

If you are just having a short vacation or a trip to Malmö - purchasing weed via wholesale darknet websites is not an option. Looking for dealers on the streets and in parks is still something you may do to find some weed in Malmö, but more and more dealers are shifting to online orders done via messengers and payments in bitcoins instead of cash. This simply protects them from ever being caught by cops. Crypto payments are anonymous and delivery is done to selected location without any personal meetings, so both you and the dealer are secured from any possible consequences.

This was a surprise for me cause I am more old school and just “heard something about crypto”. While now all youngsters (who are usually a target group for cannabis dealers) have crypto wallets so dealers simply follow the trend. I think dealers are losing money anyway because not all clients know crypto, but Alex commented that nowadays if you do not use crypto - you 100% have a friend who uses it, so you may just send him money from card and he does crypto transaction for you. After that I remembered I also have such a friend, so I agreed with Alex.

What Are the Rules About Weed in Malmö?

In Malmö, weed with a lot of a special component called THC (the stuff that makes you feel high) is not allowed. You can’t just go to a store and buy it like in some other countries. There’s also a kind of weed that doctors can give to sick people, but it doesn’t make you feel high like the other kind.

When I was in Malmö, I met a local guy named Alex who knows a lot about how things really work with weed in Malmö. He told me that even though the rules are strict, the police aren’t always super strict about it, especially with visitors.

What’s the Law Say vs. What’s Really Good?

Officially, anything with more than 1% THC is a no-go in Malmö. But Alex put me on game — cops in Malmö are chill about the weed. Unless you’re actin' a fool or got bad luck with the wrong officer, you might just get your stash snatched, have a chat, and be on your way. But yo, don’t push it. Keep it low-key, don’t smoke in public, and if you’re holdin' less than 10g of weed or 5g of hash, you should be straight.

What do locals think about ganja in Malmö

The fact that cannabis is strictly regulated by f*cking officials the government does not mean that local inhabitants of Malmö are too much against weed. Mostly - they simply do not care. Of course it is better to preserve some common rules and not to smoke weed in public in Malmö, but even if someone notices you - this will not be treated as some crime or inappropriate behavior.

Alex was cool enough to invite me to a low-key sesh at his spot — just some homies, beer, weed, and the PS5. Straight up, I felt like I hit the jackpot. Dude even became my plug in Malmö while I was in town, so I was never dry and had my weed handy. He told me as long as you keep it cool, the locals are down with the herb. But like he said — don’t be stupid, and don’t carry more than 10g unless you’re lookin’ to have a bad day.
