norcal is burning + norcal grows pot = pot farms burning
real cutting edge journalism here.
article says seven farms have burned down??? between the fires in santa rosa/napa area, geyserville area, and the ukiah area fir i would be supprised if the total number of cannabis farms from all across the spectrum of legality effected is less than 100.
these fires are terrible, especially for cannabis farmers that lose everything and cant rely on insurance, but that article is junk, comprised totally of standard, well known info about the fires, common knowledge, conjecture, assumptions, predictions, and exactly three quotes from people who are associated with grower's groups.
its almost as if someone had a deadline coming up and just thought, "people will read anything about cannabis" and threw this together over the course of a drunken afternoon.
