—————————–
MEXICO CITY (AP) Mexican authorities say they have found and destroyed 97 tons of marijuana in a field in the northern border state of Sonora.
The Public Safety Department says the plants were spotted in a 13-acre field during an aerial search over the town of Nacori Chico in Sonora state, across the border from Arizona.
The department says the plants were pulled out and incinerated.

I don’t know about you guys, but where I come from, 97 tons is a lot of pot. That’s like, 97 pounds times 2000. Yeah. A lot. Jesus. It was almost certainly all brickweed, though, so I don’t feel quite as sad about the loss here as I might if it were fine dank weed that I could potentially be smoking.

Yeah, that’s a pretty ridiculous amount of weed. Like, I’ve only ever seen maybe a couple pounds at one time. I can’t even really comprehend that much weed.

It’s a grow op so, yeah, it has a lot of weed. But they also weighed the stalks and roots and dirt and god knows what else so that 97 tons is probably a gross overestimation. Also, the less mexican brickweed the better in my opinion.

I honestly would smoke whatever would get me high and still be affordable. I wouldnt mind around 80 tons of brick.
