Police raided a home, blocks from the Art
Museum, yesterday afternoon and found a slew of marijuana plants.
Cops called it a "marijuana farm."
Police went to the vacant home, on 22nd Street near Green, after a report of a burglary. Inside, they found the plants, high-intensity lights, and
other electrical equipment.
Last night, a police spokeswoman said no one had been arrested, and the amount of drugs seized was unknown.
Police said the entire dwelling had been turned into a greenhouse devoted to growing marijuana.
They described the growing operation as one of the largest ever found in Philadelphia.
