The biggest pot bust in Calhoun history happened two years ago, large cultivated patches growing on Little Creek, a few miles from Creston.
State Police made at least two arrests related to the growing at the time.
The case was turned over to federal officials.
So far there have been no reports regarding the status of the case.
During the past two years, according to court records, about 150 arrests have been made on pot and other drug charges in the county, cultivating or simple possession.
The West Virginia State Police's marijuana netted about 1,600 plants following surveillance of the area.
A National Guard chopper spotted several grow areas in the Little Creek and Richardsonville Road area, an area where Calhoun, Wirt and Roane County converge.
Police arrested Douglas Cecil Lynch, 38, of Creston and Nicholas W. Davis, 49, of Big Bend, charging them with manufacturing a controlled substance and conspiring to manufacture a controlled substance.
