In August, three men were jailed for setting up the cannabis farm near Chilmark, Wiltshire.
The gang produced £6m worth of drugs for over three years without being detected. They also stole £650,000 worth of electricity from a nearby pylon to power the farm.
Fillery, of Pedwell Hill, Ashcott, Plamen Nguyen, 27, and Ross Winter, 30, had pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to conspiracy to produce class B drugs and abstracting electricity.
Fillery received a total of eight years in prison for conspiracy to produce cannabis, abstracting electricity and money laundering.
Nguyen, of Bartholomews Square, Horfield, Bristol, and Winter, of Maytree Avenue, Bristol, were both jailed for a total of five years each for the same offences.
A confiscation hearing is due to be held next year on a date yet to be fixed.
