And now California can celebrate its addition to the list of sweet grow-ops.
The Drug Enforcement Administration has located a clandestine indoor marijuana growing operation in Santa Ysabel, California that was custom-built on a 39-acre ranch under a semi-remote cabin.
The marijuana facility was accessible through a secret walk-in closet that had been built in the garage. Inside the closet, agents found a hidden elevator that descended ten feet below the cabin.
From the elevator shaft, there was a 4-foot wide, 65-foot concrete-encased tunnel that led to sophisticated underground grow rooms complete with hydroponic irrigation, advanced ventilation systems and enough lights to make Seattle happy. The subterranean wonderland was reinforced with steel I-beams for safety.
Surveillance was also tight. The cabin was equipped with infrared cameras with night-vision capabilities. Closed-circuit monitors were used to monitor the veg and flowering chambers.
Three men were arrested and the DEA has already begun seizure of the property.
