Yeah I was thinking the same thing when I first saw the pics but apparently when they busted the owner/s of the grow he was chilling on a yacht. A Water Front House in FL was also seized along with boat. These guys have been doing it awhile for sure.

Thats incredible, Some sweet pics too. But I agree with the plants looking shitty. Its hard to keep quiet when you own all these nice homes and boats, and you don't work. Along with splicing in to the power line to steal electricity. Or all the fake identities, with a group of people working on the project. They didn't do it like I would have done it.

Imagine the expense to run this op ... someone already had money, to start something like this. I would bet that one of the partners ratted them out. It hasn't hit the local news here yet so it is apparently still a open case. Gonna get dry round here I bet.

I dont see this grow optimised at all... I think they were very far from gram/watt... but that would lead to more work...

Besides, they could run it on generators...

The place is amazing tho.

Peace and love,

If they get busted no one is safe i guees! Well they were stealing electric and they had to distribute all that......I feel better already. That is my dream right there except it would be a breeding ground for revolutionary new strains and chemicals compounds, like owlsley meets batman and soma. I would never leave home, except when the beacon of light ( a good phish, phil etc. show) called me out of my cave for my turn to save the world w/ my super ganja and psychadelics~

I would have been more impressed with a ghetto setup with much nicer looking plants like those of the seniors here.
This bust is old news though, saw it a couple of months ago, the electrical was the tipoof if i'm not mistaken.
Stealing electrical is a great way to get caught, tough to say though a 3000$ elec bill can also raise suspicions.
Is there such a thing as a geothermic generator/power source?

They will probably auction that place, if you knew a real estate agent you could maybe find out about it in 5-10 years when the case was over. However i belive they would have to destroy the tunnels and any unpermited underground caves. we can all dream though

Suspect in pot cave case wanted in Fla.

HARTSVILLE

A man suspected of operating a sophisticated underground marijuana operation in Trousdale County faces weapons and drug charges in Florida, authorities said.

Fred Earl Strunk was arrested Dec. 14 at his home in Gainesville, Fla., where authorities said they found firearms, a grenade and fake documents for at least six different identities. He is in Macon County Jail, where he will be held without bond until he is taken into custody on the Florida charges, Assistant District Attorney General David Durham said Tuesday.

Authorities searched Strunk's Florida home on the same day a raid on his Dixon Springs home revealed a large underground complex with offices, a kitchen and growing rooms with about 850 plants at various stages of maturity.

The plants at the time had an estimated street value of $1 million, authorities said.

In addition to three counts of possession of machine guns, Strunk is charged in Florida with possession of marijuana, PCP and counterfeit driver's licenses.

Durham said he expected a grand jury to meet by next week on the Tennessee charges and that the Florida charges will have little impact on the case for now.

Two Tennessee men, Brian Gibson and Greg Compton, also face charges in the marijuana operation.

I hate that hanguns always get tied in with MJ, that really gets me.
The tokers are the one's who get associated to the criminal element as a result.
Be smart peeps be peaceful potheads, life is worth more than a plant, if your grow is large enough to warant grenades then buy an island in international waters.
