Want to Open a Dispensary in Detroit? This Map Will Blow Your Mind

If you’re wondering why it can be so difficult to obtain medical cannabis in a state like Michigan, Michael Jackman offered up a clear answer last weekend. Writing in the Detroit Metro Times, Jackman pointed readers to an interactive map recently posted by the City of Detroit. The map is meant to clarify exactly where medical cannabis dispensaries can legally operate within the city limits. Jackman wrote:

“By name, it is called the ‘Medical Marijuana Caregiver Center Eligibility Search Engine.’ But it should be called the ‘Ineligibility Search Engine,’ given the way 90 percent of Detroit seems to be covered in some sort of restrictive area inhospitable to dispensaries.”

The map is a gob-smacking testament to the power of zoning. Or rather, the power of city officials to use zoning as a way to keep dispensaries from operating. The map is confusing, as there are overlapping colors used in the circles to indicate different sensitive uses, like churches and schools, we assume — but there’s no legend or explanatory information contained within the map. The eligible spots are those tiny shards of uncolored space, which you actually can find if you look hard enough.

The address locator seems to be one of the few aspects of the map that works well. Just for fun, we suggest looking up a few of Detroit’s most famous landmarks, to check their eligibility. Enjoy.

    Cannabis can be classified in many different ways. Typically, this resinous flower is categorized as sativa, hybrid, or indica, based on anticipated effects and/or the morphology of the plant. These terms refer to types of cannabis characterized by distinct smells, flavors, effects, and/or geographic regions.
    What Characterizes ‘Kush’ Cannabis?
    Kush is a particular variety of cannabis that descends from the Hindu Kush Mountains. This mountain range spans the Afghanistan-Pakistan border and is one of the few geographic regions where the cannabis plant grows natively.
    Having strong Kush genetics usually means a strain will have a few of the following attributes:
    Appearance: Your strain may exhibit deep green colas and leaves with hints of purple. Pistils (hairs) can look orange, bronze, or rust colored. Buds are dense, chunky, and knotted, coming from squat, thick plants.
    Smell: Aroma can vary between earthy, floral, pungent, pine, incense, sweet fruit, hash spice, pepper, citrus, gas, and herbs.
    Flavor: Smoke or vapor should be smooth and herbaceous, tasting of flowers, grape, diesel, citrus, and earth.
    Effects: Kush usually vacillates between hybrid and indica dominance. The effects are typically heavy and sedative. OG Kush crosses are usually coupled with a bright euphoria that puts a smile on the couch locked consumer.-
    Keep in mind that these attributes can vary from Kush strain to Kush strain.
