Walters said more than 1.1million marijuana plants were eradicated from state and federal public lands in California last year, with an estimated street value of $4.5 million.

Probably the only truthful statement in the whole damn article. Well below the usual "street value" hype they foist on the public.

4.5 million dollars divided by 1.1 million plants equals $4.0909. . . a plant. That's selling it cheap

What is the yield from each plant? I don't think most people smoke the whole thing...

So, following have's math, $4.09 #

Sounds like a good R.O.I. even when wholesaled at the ton. No idea what the production costs are, I imagine they nickel and dime you to death and in the end, you'd be better off growing tomatoes or making counterfeit Olive Oil...

By the way, what ever happened to Tonchi?

Contained in all that is some of the stupidest shit I've ever heard/read.

You can't buy a joint for $4.

By the by:

1,100,000 plants x 1.5 pounds per plant = 1,650,000 lbs

1,650,000 lbs x 16 oz = 26,400,000 oz

26,400,000 oz x 8 (eighth of an ounce) = 211,200,000 eighths

211,200,000 eighths @ $20 an eighth = $4,224,000,000

Yeah, that 'M' in $4.5 million, maybe that was a misprint.

Shoulda been a 'B'.

And this is just for JPD, Just Plain Dope, not the good stuff.

ETA: And that's just California.
