The thing is that even some say LE is not going to worry about a small time grower like you your situation is different. The police have already conducted an operation targeting illegal drugs and arrested multiple individuals and seized their phones. They may or may not go through those phones but it's a pretty good bet they will. In furtherance of their investigation they will follow leads they might develop from the content on those phones. That's how they do things. They hit a target and then use any intelligence gathered from that operation to identify additional targets as they expand their investigation.
They found pot at the one location and one of the subjects arrested had pictures of an illegal cannabis grow on his phone. If they are able to identify the location of that grow they can obtain an additional warrant to raid that location. They are not going to know how big your operation is. As far as they know the cannabis seized in the raid came from you.
I'm not going to say what to do as you'll have to make that decision on your own. I'm just pointing out the methodology LE uses when they conduct those kinds of raids.
With that being said geotagging is on by default with Apple devices and some android devices have it on by default while others don't. So if he doesn't know if it was on or not that likely means he never changed the setting so if his phone was an iPhone it may very well have been on.
By default, the Camera app on your iPhone and iPad records geographic data, along with a bunch of other metadata, which basically tells you where the photo was taken.
