Inside a Secret Weed Farm Hidden in Plain Sight | High Society
While weed laws are becoming more progressive in many states across the US, cannabis cultivation can still get you some serious prison time in the UK.
Most smokers have no idea where their buds come from, but the higher demand and continued criminalisation of weed in the UK has engendered a black-market supply chain of human deprivation: ‘Cannabis slaves’, often trafficked from Vietnam, are forced to tend to massive grows worth millions in street value – completely against their will.
For spliff connoisseurs who have been smoking their whole adult lives and hold down regular jobs and have families, picking up poor-quality hydroponic weed from dodgy dealers in blacked out cars or down dark alleyways has become less and less desirable. Guerrilla growers are an online community of cannabis cultivators in the UK who harvest their weed plants in the wild, hiding in plain sight sometimes on the side of motorways.
Growing certain strains of cannabis that can withstand the British climate, many have been supplying themselves and their friends with hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of organic weed for almost a decade. It’s all grown outside in the sun, bypassing dealers and without being traced by the police.
Our drugs editor, Max Daly, linked us up with two guerrilla growers who were about to retire from the cultivation game, just as they were harvesting their last ever crop.

Unfortunately in middle eastern countries is the same even though it’s extremely widespread and loved among people you can get into serious trouble if you get caught.
I hope for near future legalizing it
Anyone know what strains they use?
2 oz of bush weed for 500?
I’ll call them’" little pharma"
Ye
for cannabis not to be legal world wide is idiocy…..
I wonder if one of them are a stand up on cover up clean terrorism and antipsychotics use, we all know antipsychotics cause cancer and keeping people on them is money, law and cops everything ‘clean’ keeps their terrorism seeming ‘normal’ also its evil for the cannabis community which in reality not only cuts off the pain killer community but defiantly can cut off antipsychotics to bad some terrorist get paid to go after cannabis users so we always look like dumb non cognitive non coherent people which isn’t true. Antipsychotics cause cancer, terrorism can be clean, just like well thought out Hate Crimes. You can go to jail, and kill someone and have more rights. Help New Haven Yale and Northern Virginia so many agencies supporting this terrorism. Yale did have someone murdered and ripped apart (with a chain saw) and shoved into the wall. I worked with the kid whom mom was stabbed to death and dad blew his brains out after stabbing his dog, also my siblings best friend is that girl who got murdered at Jonathan law for saying no to a prom date. Sandy hook…..Yeah go CT? Yale is such clean terrorism. Idk who they take orders from but people should riot like in 2016 again.
WHY VICE SHOW THE LOCATION WITH THE DRONE?
some body will find it – i would call the cops for sure i would call vice
i know a lot of cops

Difference is police don’t harrass people in the U.K or most any other country like they do in the U.S
I pay 160 to 190£. I don’t know where they get their prices from
Planting in April is kind of nuts for me. Especially in UK you’ll get a hand full of nights with sub freezing temps through out the month. Must be some hearty plants
