Man arrested for growing pot, police say 12/21/2007
ELLENVILLE - A Town of Rochester man was taken into custody Thursday after a report of a fire at his home led police to find two marijuana grow rooms inside the house, state police at Ellenville said.
Police said the Ulster County Sheriff's Office and Ellenville state police responded to 4775 U.S. Route 209 in the Town of Rochester at about 2:45 p.m. to assist the fire department with a reported chimney fire. Fire officials were unable to locate any fire after checking the chimney and the furnace of the home, police said. The occupant of the house, Ernie V. Ferreira, 23, of Allentown, Pa., was present while fire officials continued to search the interior walls of the home, police said.
Police said fire personnel opened a door to a small bedroom and found what appeared to be a fully operating marijuana grow room, along with more plants growing in an adjacent room. The Ellenville state police Bureau of Criminal Investigations unit responded and were notified of the findings made by fire officials, police said.
Ferreira would not consent to a search of his residence, and a search warrant was obtained from Town of Marbletown Justice Davenport and carried out at the residence at 5:35 p.m., police said. The search yielded a Charter Arms 38-caliber revolver as well as about 28 marijuana plants, police said.
Ferreira was charged with misdemeanor criminal possession of marijuana and misdemeanor criminal possession of a weapon. He was arraigned in Village of Ellenville Court and remanded to Ulster County Jail in lieu of $20,000 bail. LINK

Why wasn't this termed a marijuana "factory"?

28 plants isn't exactly mass producing, so a "factory" wouldn't exactly be an appropriate term. Now "Grow Room" is quite fitting, due to the small size of the operation.

I was being sarcastic.
They are often termed factories.
