re: Cannabis factory discovered in UK cops home 1 Year, 8 Months ago Karma: 7  
DCI Peter MacPhee, leading the task force, claimed each farm could be reaping £1million a year for organised criminals.

He added: "The geography of the Highlands makes it a target.

"The remoteness of the area is the perfect condition for the drug's cultivation.

"They select properties where their activities can go unnoticed.

But I am confident that we will win the war here in the Highlands.

"They are harvesting vast quantities of herbal cannabis for onward supply throughout the country and further.

"The plants I have seen are of a high quality and you can gain a profit or yield of £300 per plant.

"In one location we had more than 1000 plants, so you can see the potential.

"To cultivate a crop, from seedling to harvest, drying out and packaging can take 15-20 weeks, so you could have at least three harvests a year.

"When you consider the initial outlay is about £12-£15,000 in set-up costs, plus rental, then the profit is high."

If a factory was producing 1000 plants three times a year, it would yield more than £900,000.


the way this interview reads, it's almost like it's an advertisement to start growing in the highlands, just look at those viable profits ; )

    Western Telegraph, 12 Jul 2010 - A Pembroke Dock man who has campaigned for the legalisation of cannabis for medical purposes for the last 15 years has turned over a new leaf, a judge heard on Friday. Eric Mann, a retired oil refinery supervisor, served two prison sentences while taking on the government in a bid for those suffering chronic pain to be allowed to take cannabis for pain relief.
