I am curious as to how reservation weed effects prices overall? I mean I know the natives always grew terrible shwag but I heard in Cali they are really stepping things up with their light dep green houses. I am sure they must be able to produce some fairly good weed now and with no law to worry about they could really drive prices down...?

I am happy to be in Canada right now

Something about this seems indecent at best.

The rest of the post states that they can grow in a legal state. Michigan is not a legal state. Grow your 12 plants and keep quiet.

If you are Native, contact the Councils of Chippewa, Ojibway,or Menominee on what they plan to do. Not ALL tribes are wanting to venture forth. Best bet, contact Indian Communities of: Hannahville, Keweenaw, Bay Mills, Chippewa.

During the Gathering of Nations Pow Wow in ABQ, NM this past weekend, dialog was started on who wants to participate, the beginnings of steering committees, etc.

If you are not part of a tribe, I believe you are SOL.

I heard that here in Mendo, Sheriff Allman objected to the local Coyote Valley Reservation growing herb on their property right off of the 101. as of now, it's a no go...

It's going to take quite a while to formulate the parameters whereby it can be grown on sovereign land.

Thirty years ago no one would have predicted the success of Indian gaming w/ casinos.

Growing might be possible. Shall be interesting to watch developments.

Heh, I'm up in Eastern Washington and the big issue here is going to be differences in tax structures I think. The Natives in this area are trying to set up shop and taxes for State licensed producers/processors/retailers add up to something like 75 cents on every dollar of finished product sold. If Natives don't have to do that then we're going to see legalized $50 ounces for sale five freeway exits from downtown. I can't see our State letting that part go without a fight. It'll be interesting to see what they work out for price protection.
