Mexican Cartels Taking Over Some North Texas Homes

A “grow” house is where marijuana is grown. Pictures CBS 11 obtained show rows and rows of large, bright green marijuana plants. Elaborate lights hang above them to maintain the perfect temperature and humidity for a good crop. Fans stand around the room and wirings surrounds the shrubbery. It’s a massive operation controlled by a Mexican drug cartel.

Grow houses in the US are nothing new or exciting. It even states in the article these are not all cartels doing the work.

I'd love to be the neighborhood watch dude with some FLIR equipment to find the houses though.

Another plus is they keep their yards nice and landscaped....

I was just watching a show called "Cops and Coyotes". In the show, it talked about how the smuggling houses used to be identified by weeds and lack of care, but they've learned their lessons - now they perform better maintenance.
