it's now been put in the top ten Biggest factories in Britain, i dunno if theres any info on it, but the magical news told me about it.


Two little kids found out about it and told the police..
if anyone finds out who they are..they'll be dead before you can say 'oppstheyfellofabridge'

Why is that so hard to believe, how much would you get for 3000 dollars, see it only works out to each plant being worth 3000 dollars. Normally when they work out the value it would be based on the cost of an 8th. Thats the street value.

taking some big penitantary chances,

Where I am from it does not matter if it is 1 plant or 100.
It is still the same charge.
They get to charge you with something else when it is over 100 plants.

So down here if you gonna do it may as well do it up right.
As soon as I get moved into a bigger space I will expand exponentially.

they had 3 million in nugs and they were too greedy/dumb to go buy a generator or two. fucking wankers. everytime i hear about large scale busts....they were stealing electricity.

Because large scale take large consumption. and if you had a 4k Electric bill you would be in club fed before you got the bill

capncash said:

Yeah 1000 plants is a lot closer to 30,000 dollars than 3 million

yea but on the news what sounds better. a 30 k bust or a 30 million. just hype, what were they charged with is the real question

so you're saying...what?

Is it just me or wouldn't it be much easier to buy/rent a 2k sq ft metal building (like in an industrial park) and front it as a business. then you could use some sort of story for the high energy consumption, traffic (or the lack of it), etc.. But thats my $0.02.

Its not that simple. If you wanna pose as a business, you actually gotta register as a business, pay taxes, have fire department inspections, etc.

Normally they stick in a bunch of immigrants to run it, they all live in one room of the house and the rest is used to grow, they rig the electric up and it saves them dollars, i mean were talking loads of 1k lights, by time anyone realises whats going on they have done their biz once and the second time is a bonus just beginning if they can get to the end of it, if not then all equipment is seized and the immigrants are arrested not knowing who there employer is.

sucks for the immigrants but smart move by the employer. But then again to get it from the house to the dealers there would be a connection with someone that could be pointed out.

Safer to grow for your own use. and get rich else where. lol

I like the first comment on that video on how it was harming the community.

I guess I'm failing to see what the problem is?

What harm did this inflict on the community?

I don't see how it did either...

EDIT: Well, they were stealing electricity...

The big thing that everyone forgets is how many harvest they get per year. If your using offsetting rooms and your harvesting every month using sog or another method your going to make a million or so a year. Do the math...say 1000 plants in a sog 4 room set up. every 2 weeks your harvesting 250 oz at say 200/oz wholesale thats 50,000.00 x 26 harvests it comes to about 1.3 mil per year. I would say these guys were making some serious money. Small growers don't really do much sog because ur just trying to smoke 4 free and make alil xtra on the side. you can afford to wait on a harvest 12-14 weeks. Real op growers do itlike this.

I understand the benefits of growing large scale. I just often wonder if it would be worth the risks.

In canada its totally worth it, because you serve all of your jail terms at once instead of it being consecutive, so if you got 4 life sentences you would only serve 25 years... also i dont think they got caught because they stole electricity...

And here this whole time you thought you lived in a "safe neighborhood" were there any "warning signs"?

If there were "Warning Signs" I'd like to know what they were. Plz share.

They inflate the figures to try to justify the billions they are spending on their "war on drugs."

I saw this news report with my mother. She was horrified that "the terrorists were funding their operations." Needless to say i squirmed a little.
