The police uncovered a house used to grow cannabis in Valtimo, North Karelia in July.
Around 80 pieces of cannabis plants in different stages of growth were confiscated from the old detached house.
The police suspect the house was used to grow the drug between 2012 and 2014.
The police estimate 13 to 14 kilograms of cannabis had been grown with an estimated street worth of 150,000 euros during the period.
The drug was probably sold in the capital city region, southwest Finland and the Pirkanmaa region.
Three people, a 47-year-old man who lived together in that house with a 32-year-old woman as well a 52-year-old man who lived somewhere else were arrested in this connection, said the police.
