A massive £100,000 cannabis farm was uncovered after drugs bust in Purley this morning.
Fifteen officers from Croydon station swooped on the address in Godstone Road at 8am after receiving a tip-off that drugs were being grown at the premises.
Inside they found an "expert" set-up of hydroponic growing systems, linking numerous tents containing fully grown cannabis plants.
The value of the plants was estimated to be about £100,000, officers said.
The electricity supply at the address had also been tampered with. No arrests have been made and enquiries are continuing.
