Big news for Michigan: Ballot initiative would legalize psychedelic mushrooms in Michigan

It looks like Michigan is following in Oregon's footsteps with a statewide ballot initiative that would not just legalize using, growing and possessing psychedelic plants, but would also establish a framework for treatment with psychedelics and even allow SALES of psychedelics by certain groups.

“We really want to avoid the medical model,” Williams said in November. “Medical models are not equitable and not accessible, so we’re really focusing on the spiritual and ancestral applications of these plants, rather than the medical application as has happened with cannabis.”

I wasn't sure if momentum would keep building or if things would fizzle out but so far everything continues to build.  I've also been slightly surprised that even "conservative" states and politicians have started to get on board, that's a great sign of growing acceptance and recognition of the value in these substances.  Here's a nice list of recent developments:

• Activists in Colorado recently filed revised versions of 2022 ballot initiatives to similarly legalize psilocybin and establish “healing centers” in the state. A competing campaign filed a different psychedelics legalization last week.
• Two Republican Oklahoma lawmakers recently filed bills meant to promote research into the therapeutic potential of psilocybin, and one of the measures would further decriminalize low-level possession of the psychedelic.
• A Republican Utah lawmaker also introduced a bill last week that would set up a task force to study and make recommendations on the therapeutic potential of psychedelic drugs and possible regulations for their lawful use.
• In Kansas, a lawmaker recently filed a bill to legalize the low-level possession and cultivation of psilocybin mushrooms.
• A Republican Missouri lawmaker introduced a bill this month to give residents with serious illnesses legal access to a range of psychedelic drugs like psilocybin, ibogaine and LSD  through an expanded version of the state’s existing right-to-try law.
• California Sen. Scott Wiener (D) introduced a bill to legalize psychedelics possession expected to have a 50/50 chance of reaching the governor’s desk this year. It already cleared the full Senate and two Assembly committees during the first half of the two-year session.
• Washington State lawmakers also introduced legislation this month that would legalize what the bill calls “supported psilocybin experiences” by adults 21 and older.
• In Vermont, a broad coalition of lawmakers representing nearly a third of the House introduced a bill to decriminalize drug possession.
• New Hampshire lawmakers filed measures to decriminalize psilocybin and all drugs.
• Last year, the governor of Connecticut signed legislation that includes language requiring the state to carry out a study into the therapeutic potential of psilocybin mushrooms.
• At the congressional level, bipartisan lawmakers sent a letter to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) this month, urging that the agency allow terminally ill patients to use psilocybin as an investigational treatment without the fear of federal prosecution.
• A bill to decriminalize a wide array of psychedelics in Virginia was taken up by a House of Delegates panel last week, only to be pushed off until 2023. A separate Senate proposal to decriminalize psilocybin alone was defeated in a key committee on Monday.
• In Oregon, where voters approved a historic 2020 initiative to legalize therapeutic psilocybin program, as well as another to broadly decriminalize currently illicit drugs, lawmakers introduced a bill last week meant to promote equity into the program.
• Academicians at the University of Texas Austin Dell Medical School are making waves for launching the Center for Psychedelic Research and Therapy.  The center is the first of its type in the Lone Star State.

I also received some very nice feedback on the Pan Cyan TEK today:

"It's ridiculous that these were still spores just 31 days ago.  Can't believe the timeframe or the yield.  Each of those scales has the first flush of a single 9x12x2" pan."

That's right, a single cake pan can produce one pound of mushrooms, and that's just the first flush, you can get 4-5 flushes from each cake pan.

"My only complaint with the TEK is how long it took to harvest! So grateful someone else took the time to do all the research and experimentation so that I didn't have to."

Haha, yes for such a small pan, they really can be a challenge to harvest quickly particularly if you are trying not to damage the pins at the base which will form the next flush.

His 3rd cake pan harvest clocked in at a record 585 grams!

Its even more remarkable that this was a multi-spore grow (spore syringe directly to grain jars), no strain isolation whatsoever!  He says he followed my TEK precisely, but that he did use an LED worklight on a timer, perhaps the extra supplemental light levels helped produce this perfect result?  Worth exploring further.  Job well done and thanks for sharing!
