County-Sponsored Gardening Group Won't Advise WA Marijuana Growers
Spoil-sports
Master Gardeners in Spokane help people with questions about horticulture, pests and even environmental stewardship.
Just don't ask them for help growing marijuana.
A couple months after voters approved Initiative 502 legalizing possession of up to an ounce of marijuana, would-be pot growers have been asking for help, county extension officials said Tuesday.
The program, operated by Spokane County Extension through Washington State University, has told its Master Gardener volunteers to avoid giving advice about marijuana cultivation. Spokane County Extension staff have received the same warning.
