Hi Kelly, I'm from out here in BC, land of the gro-op. Don't be confused with the two products, they are completly different. There probably will be or is a very good market for the industial fiber, unfortunatly it's the wackos are trying to market it, Hemp BC etc. If there ever was a progressive loby group who could develop a proper market for industrial hemp I believe it would be viable and competative with cotton. However don't be fooled into believing it is a simple way to get rich - thats the other hemp. On the gro-op front, it is nothing but bad news. The industy is huge, it is in any (probably every) neighborhood and has created a very negative immage of BC. I hate to say it, but prohibition does not work. This is big gang business, being fueled by the demand south of the border( I don't blame anyone here, just stating a fact). The return product is of course illegal guns, cocaine, heroine etc. I have no idea how to fix the problem, but I want to let you know we are not a bunch of pot heads up here. Come visit some time, we're really quite nice. Best luck with whatever you decide. Grant
