Forget wine—California's biggest crop is bright green and funny-smelling

[PriestTheyCalledHim]

Not surprising.
CA wine is good but everyone knows that the herb is where it's at.

And FYI Cannabis is Canada's biggest cash crop.

Its the US's too.

Indoor factories, by contrast, are largely the province of East Asian entrepreneurs. They prefer to buy houses rather than rent them, to avoid the attention of landlords. They tend to go for big ones in good neighbourhoods: the property in Vista del Sol cost more than $600,000. Like good horticulturalists, they propagate strains of the plant that produce a high proportion of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC, marijuana's active ingredient) and speed their growth by means of heat and artificial light.

This part bugged me. Heat is the enemy. Hence all those industrial size fans and cooling systems.

Gotta love the Golden State. Bay area represent!

Now i feel like a valuable and participating citizen in the economic structure of the state and country.
