A hunter looking for wild hogs stumbled across a massive marijuana growing operation in Sam Houston National Forest, KHOU-TV reports on its website. Montgomery County sheriff’s officials and state troopers found 10,000 plants and growing equipment near FM 1375 and FM 149 in Montgomery County. The pot was destroyed in an incinerator, but no arrests
