Investigation launched
The drugs and equipment have been seized and an investigation into the site is ongoing.
Sergeant Sean Scarsbrook, of Thanet Community Policing Team, said:
‘The sale of this cannabis would have benefited criminals and I am pleased our officers have uncovered the site and seized these illegal drugs.
