Unless you just dropped a few grand on growing materials at home depot then dont worry about it as they cater to home gardners.

Believe it or not the cops set up a camera at the hydro store a few counties away from me. Took pics of license plates, checked out power bills and busted people. I'll have to find the article, if i'm not mistaken all charges where dropped on the guys they did arrest, and the cops where all fired. They where so gung-ho one of them dressed as a meter reader, they also went into a neighbors yard and spied on the guy. All without warrents.

The legal term is "pretextual" I believe.
I never said I read all his posts. Did you even read one of my five? RIU has some of the most unwelcoming members. You really think my original posts warrants smart ass comments? Shouldn't this forum be a community and about helping newer growers out? When members with over 3k posts only offer smart ass commentary it makes me wonder how many of their posts have and substance.
Krondizzel all of your comments in my post are smart ass. I see why people are going to other forums for information.
Jesus Chris Krondizzel... you average 38 posts a day. hahaha... I thought HotRodHarley averge post count was outrageous @22 posts a day.
Thanks sunni... glad to see a couple welcoming senior members on this site.
Forums just drive me crazy. People just want to Troll and add dumbass comments. I don't understand why people can't stay on topic and post useful information. There's a lot of good information on these grow sites but it's diluted with useless comments from people trying to pad their post count. I've read on other forums about the rudeness of members on this site. I see what they mean.
I hate to break it to you but its like that everywhere and people here will tell you how other sites are crappier then here its the way the world works,
someone will always give their bad experiences and tell 12 people rather then tell the 1-2 people about their good experiences.

LOL He'll find out soon enough. Sunni is probably the only one here who won't break your balls.

Sunni will only bark at you if you really give her a reason to. She will put her foot down. I can vouch for that. She probably wants to reach through the screen and slap me on a daily basis but.. I think we have gotten better and more used to each other so her and I are getting along these days... 'Least I think so?
You just have to remember though, there are a lot of different people and personalities on this site. This site is worldwide from Australia to the UK to the US to Canada. You simply have to be used to different personalities here.
It's all good. I'm just throwing punches back. I've been hit on the jaw enough times to know how to take a hit. Honestly the smart ass comments don't bother me. It's that I was trying to start a conversation that I was hoping would turn into something useful.
Back to the topic. We all slip up eventually. It's probably more common to slip up at the beginning stages when your green and later stages when you're relaxed.
Security should be #1 on everyone's list. This topic has been talked about 100x before but it's the same thing over and over and over. Don't take your car to the grow shop. Don't use your credit card or mailing address. Contain scent. Be smart about discarding trash. Don't tell anyone.
Here's two that some people may overlook. Don't sell to drunks or druggies. They'll be the first to be put in a situation to exchange their freedom for yours. Don't give away bud. Who in the fuck does that? Someone that grows their own shit, that's who.

If you're buying from a local store, pay cash. Even if you use a CC to get grow supplies, just buy some flower or veggie seeds what's a another buck or two. So even "IF" they really got into a fuss over a purchase, and said you bought this, you're a pot grower. The fact veggie seeds are there would put 'reasonable doubt' into any jury.
"Sir, you boughtt 10 flower bots, lights, soil, nutrients, that's a lot for home use, your bill is gone up, you look suspicious"
"Yes, but I also bought tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers etc... home made veggies are cleaner and safer then store bought "
Remember, any legally store bought item has a legal purpose. Even if someone doesn't use it for that purpose, only that person knows. Other people will only know what you tell them, show them.
Besides, there's bigger fish for them to fry. Just don't make it easy on them by putting your trimmings in the trash....

Dont worry about the strokes who just like to post smartass remarks. Pretty much the people who seemed to join after 2010 really aren't the best folks of course with exceptions. The older original members here had this as a really good friendly site but as with our society the forum has sufferd with the influx of dipshits and idiots. If ever in need just ask any of the older members here well of those who havent left for better grounds lol
