Cops are funny guys sometimes. " O.K boys, lets assume that the plants were 30 feet tall, and produced Ganja valued at 3,000 dollars and ounce.. yup, thats our story and we are stickin too it " I figure 29 Million is a nice round number... Somebody out in the nation was about to get ripped off.. thank God they caught them before the price of weed sky rocketed !!! ;\)

Legalization is long overdue. I don't care if that offends anybody. The money and resources wasted is what should be offensive. S

Spend the money saved from chasing pot growers into busting more tweakers. Spend the taxes collected on treatment centers for any and all chem dependancies. But locking up marijuana growers is getting us nowhere.

Though it hasn't been 4:20 at my house for a long time now (Sol, PM me if you need reasons), I have to agree, they are barking up the wrong tree.

They weigh the plants WITH the root balls then tally the seeds and multiply the average weight of the plant times each seed since each seed technically counts as a potential plant. This way they get a big grant from the DOJ next fiscal year.

1 x 2" plant + rootball = 5 lbs

5lbs x 24 seeds = 120 lbs of illegal narcotics.
