Growshop

A growshop sells everything you need to create your own indoor marijuana plantation – from innocent-looking lamps and fertilisers to seeds and automatic watering systems. Holland has over 300 growshops and research shows that over 80% of their owners have connections to the (criminal) industrial marijuana production circuit. Police are now calling for the introduction of growshop licences and have been clamping down on their operations.
