I saw that about the California arrest. Someone was dreaming big. And that is a neat article about Washington.

The USDA just published their proposed Federal rules for hemp. Farmers are very upset about them, to say the least. It looks like they were written to put all of us out of business. The thc limits are very strict. My crop this year would have passed...by .02%...just barely. The new proposed rules say that if a farmer fails the test, he has to pay the DEA to come remove his plants. You can't even kill your own plants legally.

The new rules are not final yet, so hopefully they change a few things.
