Deputies Found Thousands of Marijuana Plants in North Texas

By -
Law officers have located thousands of marijuana plants at a pot farm hidden in a wooded area of North Texas.



The Navarro County Sheriff's Office says some of the plants discovered Saturday were flourishing at a height of 10 feet. Officers acting on a tip located the illegal crop.

=================

Sheriff Elmer Tanner says investigators are trying to determine who tended the site in northeast Navarro County. Hoses and other watering mechanisms were at the scene.

Investigators say the property owner was not aware of the marijuana operation that yielded plants with a street value of several hundred thousand dollars.

Authorities didn't immediately provide specifics on the location of the marijuana plot or how many plants were found and face eradication.

========================

Navarro County is about 60 miles southeast of Dallas.

Wiz Khalifa was feeling generous last night. When the paparazzi pulled up on him in West Hollywood while he was getting ready to roll some weed up, he was kind enough to share the wealth.

U.S. states started recognizing marijuana for it’s medicinal purposes, and a few states have now legalized cannabis recreationally. So why are these states legalizing it? What do they know that the rest of the great US of A doesn’t? Or, better yet, why are they willing to take the “risks” associated with legalizing weed?

And according to a new study, the beer industry stands to lose billions if marijuana is legalized nationwide. The study states , “Cannabiz Consumer Group’s (C2G) research findings predict that legal marijuana will “canna-balize” 7.1% of revenues from the existing retail beer industry.” Even though the revenue margin may seem small to some, the profit losses are predicted to exceed 2 billion dollars. And while the research attempts to predict what will happen when and if weed is legal nationwide, many alcohol consumers are already making the switch over to marijuana. The study writes, “Twenty-seven percent (27%) of beer drinkers st...
