grow operation

Indoor cannabis farm

A grow operation is a facility for cultivating plants illegally, almost always marijuana.

The term implies scale beyond personal use—commercial production with grow lights, irrigation systems, and multiple plants.

Law enforcement uses the term routinely: Police discovered a grow operation in the basement.

Sometimes shortened to grow op.
