More than 20,000 cannabis plants have been discovered in what authorities are calling an elaborate and sophisticated growing operation in Fresno Valley, Calif., reports ABC 30. The grow was allegedly discovered as authorities took to the skies to monitor two other known growing locations. They found a third operation in between the two sites. The aroma was reportedly so pungent that authorities could smell the farm from the air. “We were about 1,100 feet (elevation) and about two miles away and we smelled it in the aircraft,” a sheriff’s sergeant told ABC 30. With assistance from the National Guard, deputies spent the better part of the weekend tearing down the operation that was spread across 18 greenhouses and 40 acres.

So they do this shit still yet from what I hear there's unlicensed weed shops all over the state? What a joke
Love this free country. Wish everyone would wake the hell up, drop their smart phones and cut off their favorite tv shows, and see they are among other things what they really are just pacifiers to pacify them from caring or realizing what this country is actually about. With so many if it doesn't effect them it doesn't matter. Personally I feel in a free country you should be able to do whatever you want as long as you don't cause another human being harm. #freeweed lol

These anti pot cops sure have an acute sense of smell. Same with cops in Nashville TN, where a cop supposedly “smelled” this grow in a house that somebody probably told him about. Couple of years later, cops get a tip about some nut making BOMBS in his camper. Instead of busting in on him, he wasn’t home or answering the door so they just left. The next time they heard from him he set the bombs off in downtown Nash. If only they had cared about explosives as much as a pot plant.
"street value for the entire operation could exceed US$80 million" Is that before or after the 40% in taxes?
