51,000 Marijuana Plants Up in Smoke

Via nbcsandiego.com:

A massive 51,000-plant pot garden in the Cleveland National Forest is one of the largest illegal-growth operations ever found in San Diego County, according to sheriff's deputies.

The plants covered the size of a football field and could produce 25 to 50 tons of marijuana, with a potential street value of $300 million, U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration Agent Amy Roderick said.

A deputy spotted the field late last week in the remote mountain area south of Paso Picacho campground in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park.

The final plants were removed Thursday. Most of the pot will be destroyed with a portion kept as evidence.

There have been no arrests.


"Most of the pot will be destroyed." That's okay, it's not like it can be used as medicine or anything.

Cop Land:
50 tons = 100,000 pounds
(100 pounds)/(51000 plants) = 2pounds per plant!

Reality:
(51000 Plants)*(2 ounces per plant) = 102,000 ounces
(102,000ounces)/(16ounce per pound)=6300pounds
(6300pounds)/(2000pounds per ton)= 3.1 tons!!
So from simple math, at most there would be only 3.1 tons! Boy that was easy...

If your only gettin 2 ounces per plant outdoors in Southern Cali your doin something very wrong my friend! 2 ounces per is cool for an indoor set up but 2 pounds per plant outdoors is very realistic, I know people in Kenticky pullin down 10 pound plants dried and cured so I know it can be done easilly in Cali! Its a damn shame that somebodys hard work just gets burnt up like that for nothin especially with all the sick and dying people out there that need good medicine, it sad shit man...
