STRATTON – Two men and a woman arrested on drug charges were not growing marijuana for their own personal use only, according to Maine Drug Enforcement Agency supervisor Gerry Baril.

Police arrested Justin Kuhni and his girlfriend, Courtney Steeves, both 26, at their home in Stratton. Several area law enforcement agencies had received information that led police to a field near the home, where they found marijuana plants growing.

The harvest, weighing about 78 pounds, and 24 pounds of dried marijuana found in the house, is atypical for someone growing marijuana for just themselves and a few friends, Baril said.

Police also found 35 grams of hashish and 23 grams of psilocybin mushrooms in the residence.

“They are more than just local growers. They are commercial growers, growing for profit,” Baril said.

Both are charged with unlawful trafficking of drugs.

Also charged was Ryan Cowper, 25, of Coplin Plantation, who was arrested the following day with one pound of marijuana in his home. He is charged with furnishing Schedule D drugs.
