Once they were gone, I killed all my recently rooted clones, the mothers, disassembled my cabinet, and threw my gear and ripped up ladies in a mall dumpster. It was their second visit in a few months, so growing here is clearly impossible.

Good luck to everyone out there. My neighbors smelled resin we scraped from a bowl. It's just not safe here. The cowardly neighbors won't even reveal themselves. The cops said they received "multiple calls" but they were all full of lies tonight, trying to get me to confess and give them evidence so they could come in without a warrant. Bullshit you received multiple calls, it's probably just one miserable woman who nobody likes.

Stay safe RIU users. Never trust anyone and never talk to cops. Do not self incriminate yourself, and do not hand over evidence.

Bounty sheets and a paper roll to mask the quick smell a bit. I'm sure glad I can smoke in the comfort of my home.

Yes, the bowl tar. We were stupid and messed up. We'd been containing the smell for months, but we only had resin this time, and the smell escaped. In my experience, I always used to get caught by my mom when i was a kid for resin, but she'd never smell anything else. Sure, we got complacent, but the bottom line is that if there's some dumb bitch who's going to call the cops every time we fuck up, it's not safe to grow pot here.

I'm not used to being a refugee smoking in the bathroom, I'm used to smoking in my living room, where normal human beings spend their time. I feel like a little bratty kid in college again sneaking into the bathroom and using spoofs, but there I was, spoofing it up! (no offense to the little bratty kids that frequent here).

The vent fan was on of course. Some smoke clearly escaped and we got caught. We tried to ninja, but it only needs to fail once for the police to show up when there's someone who wants to get you in trouble.

Edit: Sorry to any non-bitchy girls out there. I've been assuming the neighbor who called the cops is an old fat bitchy woman, but I honestly have no idea. It could easily have been an old fat bitchy man.

You went in the bathroom to smoke resin and your neighbors smelled it. Are you talking about bowl tar or hash resin, like our Euro friends like to refer to it?

Why did you turn the vent fan on? Resin (bowl tar)may stink, but it has plenty of smell easily related to pot burning. Or didn't you know that?

Control your emissions people. All of them.

Life is a learning process, and no learning ever happens from the good stuff. It's only mistakes that teach us the lessons that sustain you later in life, in relation to pot growing and much of life in general. You survived this one. You'll know better next time.

protip: grab a healthy wad of toilet paper, cram it over your mouth after a hit, cheek to cheek. Purse your lips strong and exhale hard into the paper. Bang, you've reduced smell and smoke emissions 95% with a .10 investment.

Forget that dryer sheet crap.

Good luck out there...

We were blowing into a 2 foot spoof full of dryer sheets, carbon, into a sealed plastic bag.

We'd have been caught ages ago had we used a conventional dryer sheet toilet paper roll spoof. We set that up after the first scare, and everything was fine for like 3 months until we fucked up today.



|==================] slightly full garbage bag wrapped around

The | was a threaded seal that trapped all the smoke inside until squeezed the bag out. You unscrew it to blow smoke in, then rescrew it.

The lesson I learned is spoofs aren't foolproof no matter how beefy they are. One day you'll fuck up and some bitch will ruin your day. In our case, the resin probably smelled from heating it while scraping it out of the pipes.

Well, you let raw, firsthand resin smoke into the environment. Not even filtered through your lungs. Problem #1...

Problem is that when they ask you for your name, as soon as you give them your name, that is you 'legally' consenting to them and you agree to "stand-under" them, read law, it may save some of you.

If you find out who did it you should post a craigslist ad for him for a big blowout garage sale starting at 6 am on a saturday morning. I saw someone else around here say that worked for them.

Reading all of this makes me lament for my fellow growers. Everything you have to do to be "tolerated" is grossly unjust. It makes me appreciate having my state license more than ever. I sincerely look forward to the day when all of the good people on here can grow without judgement, and fear of raids. Stay strong and keep the positive vibes.

I would love to tell you that you are safe because you have a card, but federally it's still not legal....ANYWHERE. You're never safe in the USA.

They kept pointing out that I seemed nervous, as if acting nervous is incriminating.

I told them "You'd be nervous too if the police came to your door to interrogate you".

No shit I'm nervous when there's liar pigs at my door.

This is the main reason we moved to the country. Where I'm at now property is dirt cheap. I got a 6 bedroom with detached 2 car garage and a 30'x45' shop on 10 acres for 120,000...and it has a good sized creek on the back to fish and swim in...lol...

What if your neighbors are actually cool with smoking and growing weed, just they got tired of smelling your smoke every time you lit up?

I know I wouldn't want to smell it in my own house just because the neighbors were blazing. I remember what its like to live close to other people. After a while, even the things you are cool with can piss you off.

Neighbors no longer communicate outside of calling the police on one another, so who knows if they were just annoyed that day, or if they are weed haters.
