Two men have appeared in court after police seized around £1m worth of cannabis at a Mapperley Park property.
Officers forced entry to an address at Lucknow Drive where they located around 1,400 mature plants in a number of rooms across the detached residential property.
The raid occurred on Thursday, September 9, at around 11,30am.
Jevgenij Babkov, 24, and Noyus Kastenas, 20, both of Lucknow Drive, have been charged with the production of a class B drug.
They were remanded in custody after appearing at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on Saturday, September 11.
Inspector Karl Thomas, local area commander for Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Targeting drug related crime is a key local priority for us. That’s because the trade in illegal drugs has very serious consequences in our communities – not only for the people who use and deal in them, but also for local residents who are put at risk by associated violent crimes.
“We would ask anyone with suspicions about properties in their area to make us aware as soon as possible.”
The pair will next appear at Nottingham Crown Court on Monday, October 4.
