What's funny to me is that the op is so concerned with pot growers he probably drives by and ignores more serious crimes because those don't fall within his agenda lol

Lets flush all those chemicals away and waste some more water


Flushing before harvest Marijuana Growing

Cannabis Plant and Pest Problem Solver - Pictorial


Now lets see.. who are we to believe.. self serving dope growers damming up streams and stealing water.... or legit sources... hmmmm

Why as a society are we wasting any time and resources on people whose pursuit in life only harms others.. who lie to themselves and everyone else about their behavior.. who trash the environment in pursuit of being high.. a worthless use of brain cells

Environmental terrorism is serious crime
Dope breeds criminal behavior... people who seek drug use are a waste of oxygen upon the rest of us

The usual suspects? I was absolutely opposed to legalization here in Colorado, still am, but even I'll concede that the sky has not fallen. Legitimate grow operations are typically indoors and utilize hydroponics to optimize conditions and maximize profit. That water figure is way high for corporate growers in states that have legalized.

Thanks

The usual suspects refer to those persons who regularly post pro pot and cannot see any evidence of damage due to marijuana behavior...

We are taking about outdoor grows...illegal ones

Many California counties have already addressed indoor grows with limitations and permitting.. and ways to mitigate water use and environmental damage

You apparently failed to note that every single one of those links takes you to the same article. You evidently just copied and pasted the same URL into each one.

I hope you're a lot more careful with your police work than you are with your posting.

The cops harvest the weed and keep the profits.

Golf courses.. I don't golf.. golf courses like marijuana operations are environmental disasters .

As far as waiting to pull ... good call by the sheriff.. many of those growers will leave permanently

The 5-10 gallon number is Ca fish and game biologists ... vs dope growers... hmmm who has a bigger stake.. dope growers

I stand by the number..even liberal dope grow news sites confirm it...
Are you Jack Webb's son?

Prohibitionists have little in the way of statistics to support their arguments. They assume if they think something is bad it must be fact, and everyone else should believe.
