The surge in cannabis factories -- or 'growhouses' -- led to a massive rise in the number of offences covering the cultivation and manufacture of drugs last year.
New figures, published by the Central Statistics Office yesterday, showed that those offences almost doubled in 2010, up by 97pc from 273 to 538. In the final quarter of the year the number jumped by 101pc, from 75 to 151.
