Two men, aged 22 and 24, were arrested and bailed on suspicion of possessing class B drugs with intent to supply.
A 40-year-old woman was also arrested and released on bail.
Inspector Mark Dickson, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “The raids were the result of local intelligence work and I hope they send out a clear message to people involved in the cultivation or supply of illegal drugs: we take what you are doing very seriously indeed and may come for you at any time.
“We are listening to the concerns of our residents and remain as committed as ever to taking illegal drugs off our streets.
“If any members of the public have any concerns or suspicions about drugs in their neighbourhoods I would urge them to report them by calling 101 or contacting Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
