I don't think it would be a big deal here in Minnesota. It is also legal here and wild hemp grows in roadside ditches and other exposed/transitional areas. I guess I would want to know if anything is being sprayed by the DNR or road crews to keep vegetation in check. But I think it very unlikely that anyone would have legal trouble for this in states like Minnesota or Michigan. There are probably some guerilla growers in legal states on this board that can talk about their experiences.
More likely that some teenager steals it way before it's ripe.
The hemp in the lower part of the state? have never seen it in the lakes or above.
Roadside ditches be iffy from what I've seen most of these get cut at least 2x a year
