In the biggest pot bust in Humboldt County history, authorities seized more than 134,000 marijuana plants worth an estimated $469 million, law enforcement officials said.
The plants, ranging from one to three feet tall, were discovered on federal and private timberland along the county's eastern edge north of Dinsmore, according to the Humboldt County Sheriff's Department.
The plants, which were spotted during surveillance flights, were eradicated over the past week by county, state and federal officers.
No arrests were made during the raid, but investigators believe a Mexican drug cartel was behind the massive growing operation.
