TAMPA - Hillsborough County deputies say they took down a grow house Wednesday with $1 million in marijuana inside.

About 10:45 a.m. Wednesday, deputies were given consent to search a home at 8408 Lava Place in Tampa. They say they found 35 fully grown marijuana plants being cultivated in two rooms of the home. The plants weighed about 300 pounds combined, deputies say.

Deputies arrested three men: Mario Galdo-Garcia, 32; Raidel Galdo-Garcia, 31; Fabian Castillo, 32. Charges against each man include trafficking in marijuana and cultivation of marijuana. The men remain in jail; no bail has been set.

Wow, that works out to about nine pounds a plant! What did they do, weigh the soil too?

^^^ but of course! you always include soil weight, planter weight, stem and root weight, and make sure it is wet weight, because everyone knows that fresh wet stems and soil is where the real money is at ;) lol, crazy policia and they're wacky weight tactics

the best is when it's a medical grower, and the police get sued for the inflated weight amount that they declared, love hearing those stories

If this guy can make a 9 lb plant, I would be glad to pay his bail so he could teach me before his court date.

Amazing thats over 8 pounds per plant. They must have weighed ever damn thing including the soil or water if it was hydro.

That's a shame. In Florida, the laws have become more oppressive: The penalty that used to go to people caught with 200+ plants, is now the same for 25 or more plants:15 years. Yup, Florida is going the opposite way the rest of the country is going, and making penalties more stringent. Imagine getting 15 years for 25 plants.....

What a crock of shit...300lbs from 35 plants indoors. These cops probably really found the whole house filled with plants...like every room. 2 rooms is what they reported

When I was busted, they weighed the soil and all the plants wet, I was initially charged with attempt to cultivate over 100 pounds! I got busted with 48 plants...Cops are just gonna try and make it look big. When they re-weigh everything it won't be close to that...just typical hype from the cops and media.

A grow that produces 300lb, I thought they would've put up some pics...tells me Mr Bacon is not telling the whole truth.
 
WOW!!! 8+ pounds a plant!! This guy is a Ganja-Guru!! Gypsy! Can you get some of those seeds?? The guy in Texas with the "1600 $ an oz" plant must be jealous. Or mebbe the cop forgot to step off the scale when he weighed it.

And yet - if the wrong "type" of leo make the bust, there is no cash found, and all the dry weed magically disappears...

And the home owner and dogs are killed for resisting...

No complaints over "missing" personal effects if the owner dies in a hail of leo lead...

isnt basic math a requirment for joining the force? these cops are dumb as shit weighing the soil. "Soil is sold to children for 20 a gram, its a very expensive illegal illicit substance"

And water - 8 lbs per gallon...

Can no-one stop the insanity - water kills more every year than mj, sharks, lightning and plane crashes put together...

Who will protect the kids???

Why is water still legal???

Besides - you can't grow weed without water...

It's the burbling killer...
