The bags were discovered on Penn Croft Lane at the bottom of Penn Common by Wombourne Parish Councillor Ed Hughes, who posted photos on social media of what he had seen.
He said that he had discovered the bags, numbering more than 25, around midday on Friday and after checking them, found that there were two pots inside and around 50 cannabis plants.
The councillor said he had also reported the find to West Midlands Police at around 1.15pm and asked for anyone with any dash cam or house camera footage to get in touch with him or call 101.
