Maybe they should estimate it by grams and possible out put of the plant for the next 100 years then they can say they busted up house with over $1 BILLION dollars worth of weed in it. Now that is a headline.
From the police perspective they like to keep things simple. There was a show recently on the marijuana industry in BC on CBC and they were they interviewed a bunch of officers and they were all saying they value each plant at 1 pound per year. Not saying it's right or wrong, but that is how the police do it.

Well street price for a pound usually averages about $2,000.00. However, if you are growing in huge volume, you're probably not selling at a pound at a time. Probably selling to a distrubutor in bulk loads of 20-50 lbs. In which case the price falls dramatically.
