California Pot Growers

Saturday's Wall St Journal had an editorial headlined "Marijuana Supply-Siders".  They stated that there are 68150 pot growers in California.  They say the number comes from the California Growers Association.  I wonder how many growers decided not to register with the Growers Association for fear that the narcs or the DEA or the cops would get on their case.  I know if I was growing weed in California I'd try to keep it secret. 
  And, that's a lot of pot farmers.  About one pot farmer for every 587 citizens of California.   Take a guess that only 10% of Californians smoke weed.  That's one pot farmer for every 58 smokers.  The article did mention that a lot of California pot is exported from California.
