Why are they seizing a product that's legal in California ?

375,000 plants, AND 33,480 lbs.
assortedletters
How did they come to that figure
375,000 plants. 33,000 lbs of dope. Each plant is about 1 pound of weed. 400,000 pounds of dope. 6,400,000 ounces of weed. $300/oz. $1.9 B.
Thanks man, someone else was nice enough to break it down for me too, was going strictly off the 33k pound. I still think it's inflated but
makes a lot more sense, ty.

amount of drug seized, multiplied by current street value
Right did I do the math wrong or is that 32,000 pounds, $37500 per.
neomagus00
33480 lbs * 16 oz/lb * $200/oz retail (rough average for CA) = $107 million. Does not include the 375,000 plants or 65 vehicles taken.
Alright yeah that's what I was asking going off the title, they like to hilariously inflate these things for the headline.
