If you read both stories they have one common theme.....how the grows were "discovered" in both cases seems totally bogus

Those plants were looking real nice! Looks to be an OG of some sort based on the small colas and floppy stems. 330 pounds they say. . . Must have been wet weight of all the plants ready for harvest in addition to whatever they found that was processed. Those 3 big bags look to be a total of about 20 pounds all together. If the dude saw them coming to the house I wonder why he didn't at least unload the gun that was in the house. . . Too bad for those guys.

If this all started from a traffic stop, why didn't they guy show them his medical cannnabis paperwork or card? Seems like this could have been easily avoided. Too bad for them that was a clean setup with a nice hedge of ripe plants. Sad times for those growers! But stealing electricity is a violation of the grower's code. Only vietnamese assholes steal electricity out here, and cuban assholes in florida. If you're harvesting that much OG Kush you can afford to pay your electric bill without a doubt.

330 pounds including the dirt,Curious how in just 1 bedroom they say he had 330 plants that weighed 330 pounds and had a value of $330,000,must have been one hell of a big bedroom!
Gator they also busted like 3 cartel type grows in pinion hills/phelan/adelanto/san berdoo county area in the last week or so and ALL were tapped into electrical Pre-meter,somehow they are starting to be able to detect the Taps and then they just wait for the right time,make up an excuse and its all over.

They have a big amp meter that they can read pull on entire blocks and grids. They know how much they are getting paid for...they compare it to how many amps are being pulled fron that area. You dont just "lose" 200 amps. imho

Some people just got to learn the hard way,lol..

 

[vaporedout]

i was always wondering when they said how much weight was found.... theyre probably weighing wet buds with the root balls in tact.

300 lbs worth 300,000... nice round numbers..

does anyone else find it super weird that a small plant in a SOG yields exactly the same as those big ass plants? Must be the formula. 1 plant = 1 pound = $1,000.00. These guys would have been waaaay better off with a few trees.
