We have 5 pot clubs within walking distance of our home now. One of them has an armed guard that walks back and forth about 20 feet from a residence near the club he's guarding. Btw the person who lives there is a close friend.

Love this bit from the article!

MJ was the biggest cash crop in my county of Santa Rosa, FL for a while, but I think the local sheriffs department have drastically reduced it or least what was planted in patches and fields. It was concentrated in forested areas, especially the Black River Forest area. People now will plant in a pot and space the pots out in forested areas. Very hard to spot from the Air. I believe many of these types went into crystal meth.

Another tactic is to lease a house and grow MJ in the house. The resulting humidity indoor mj growing destroys the typical wood frame dry wall building that is left after the harvests and the running out of the lease.

Big ag is closely monitored, Mitchel. And growers need to pay for the monitoring. Your neighbors are much more likely polluters due to lawn fertilizers, etc. Really. Even with all of the rice fields upstream from Sacramento, the big contamination to the Sacramento River comes from the city of Sacramento itself.
