Soliciting for self-incrimination, this early on a Sunday? LOL

A wise person once told me concentrate on breaking only 1 law at a time :)

Stealing power to grow weed gives the rest of us a bad name.
If you care about moving forward the cause for legalizing weed,
don't steal power or do anything else that might give marijuana a bad name
by association to thugs who steal etc.

i just said i wouldnt. my buddy got pinched. read plain english. tip top seems to get the question.

stealing power leads people right to you. a trail of evidebce right to your door. duuuuh!

i want to know WHY someone would do this. its like throwing plant waste in the trash.

holy fuck, i was hoping to hear from one of these dummoes. not a couple people who assume they know everything, and cant apearently just not answer the question they havent been asked.

congrats to tip top for the strait answer. they are dumb. i didnt need conformation of that, but still a strait answer

Asking people if they steal power. Then telling them to keep that "sit" to themselves. Are you stupid?

it's kinda like how he wishes gays would just keep it to themselves and then says everyone should keep their sexuality to themselves to seem less bigoted and then talks about how he banged his dementia ridden 44 year old mentor after getting her drunk.

If you read the post you will notice the two different tenses used. He asked people if they HAVE stolen power, as in something they did in the past, and then at the states that if they CURRENTLY steal power, to keep it to themselves, as in something they are doing right now.

I personally don't steal.

But in the UK I can understand why someone would contemplate it with a big grow.

To run my 400w with dehumidifier and fans etc costs me on average £26 a month extra.

When I was using my full 600w setup with all the bells and whistles it was around £48 per month.

Multiply that that by say 6x600w and that £288 a month on electric or about $400.

I couldnt afford that along with my normal household utility use costs.

I know that in the end you could reap the rewards but I would be broke with that kind of wattage use and would probably contemplate it for one grow.

Thankfully though I don't and won't ever use that kind of wattage unless it ever becomes MMJ able in the UK. If that time ever comes then im leaving my job and setting up a company to grow. Lol.

Bare in mind though that anyone on that many lights is on that many lights not because they need a big joint, they are selling pounds of weed and making a fortune, making that power bill seem quite insignificant.

I do understand that. Hence my comment about reaping the rewards.

However like I stated, that kind of money in either a token prepaid meter or a direct debit instruction per month extra to what I already pay would break me to get to harvest date.

Some folks still put all their money into setup and don't factor in power usage/costs.

Sorry I was not trying to ruin your thread or be a know-it-all though you would not be the first person to accuse me of that particular failing. I was actually trying to keep the same type of idiot who would steal power from incriminating themselves. Because they are that 'kind' of stupid.

100% agreement. I wholeheartedly am behind this statement.

Anyone who swipes anything isn't in this for the love of the plant, or the love of the hobby.

Man up, come up with a logical reason for an upgraded service, and consider it a cost of doing business... besides, by the time you need to steal electricity, you're already making enough money from distributing anyways, no?

I was always under the assumption that it was gangs running grow houses, for maximum profit who stole power. Not least because they want to make the most money possible but also because they often employ illegal immigrants as house sitters/ gardeners, so they couldn't give a shit if the house is raided anyway. Anyone stealing power while growing on a small scale at their own risk is simply retarded.

See now im getting inteligent answers. this second page is much better than yhe first. thank you to tip top for actually reading the entire post.

my buddy is in the can. for 50 plants. I was curious as to if anyone out there could explain the rationalization behind why someone would do that shit. its fcking dumb. real dumb.

and puffdatchronic, that is a good point. my buddys not in a gang, i think he just startind writing cheques his brains couldnt cash. or someone showed him how to do it. fucking dumb.

And curious, my mistake. i thought you were just trolling my thread. But i get where you were coming from. Im sure some would attempt to ask others abouth power theft indirectly. I would never consider that shit tho.

and to U.B. where were you buddy? my threads are half the fun when you arent posting nonsense. you really should show up more. ive been laughing about shit youve been saying all week. good job trolling red. he was on my list, but removed him for trolling potpimp. and kudos for the finshaggys sister picture. after finding out what a piece of crap he is, i can say he deserved it. that guy is a goof.
