Four men have been arrested after a cannabis farm with a street value of about £1.2m was found in Warwickshire.
Police raided a warehouse unit in Bayton Road, Exhall, and discovered more than 1,500 plants on Thursday.
The saplings have a street value of £890,000 while an extra discovery of cropped product was worth about £346,000, the force said.
The suspects, aged 31, 27, 25 and 22, were arrested on suspicion of cultivation of cannabis.
