Burglar saw my grow

weeduser · Jul 27, 2011

Hello fellow growers.

6 month ago burglar visited my house and saw my 2x400 grow. Didn't steel anything from there. Since than I shut down grow op. I don't think he'll be back as I live in non violent countryside and even if, I secured the house. As I own the house i can't move to another place.

Now, do you think is it safe to give another try? Did anybody had similar problem and just give another try? Do you think that burglar would rat me to the police for my grow?

Thank you for your answers and good luck.

Well, common sense should tell you that, if the burglar indeed seen your grow/plant/plants or whatever... I personally wouldn't worry about it man. Why? Simple.. why would a burglar, who BROKE INTO YOUR HOUSE.. go to the police to tell them that he broke into your house.. and noticed that you were growing cannabis?? If the burglar has any common sense.. he/she won't say anything at all about it.. because if they do, they'll incriminate themselves!!

I wouldn't worry about it kid.

peace.

i can see the burglar talking to his scum belly friends about a grow house that he burglarlized and decide to visit again. i would burglar proof my house before i ever thought about growing again. motion detection lights, secured windows, locked doors and the like.

Well I know he won't knock on the police door and say it. I'm concerned about if they catch him for something else and then say it.

Can't you submit an anonymous tip? Not that it's likely the dude will

outofbodyspecial · Jul 27, 2011

We can speculate about many scenarios that can happen, but the bottomline is your grow has been "exposed". I wouldn't grow there again.

weeduser · Jul 27, 2011

Never grow or do you think there is maybe a reasonable time limit? I believe that he would give anonymous tip immediately as he saw it.

kevin · Jul 27, 2011

i'd be more scared of him coming back than i'd be of him rolling on you.

weeduser · Jul 27, 2011

I secured the house so it's burglarproof and I don't think he will come back. He knows that I took some measures and violence robbery is not common around here.

Dubbz0r · Jul 27, 2011

How do you know he saw your grow and actually identified is as MJ? He broke in your house so we know we're dealing with an idiot already. There's always the chance he didn't pay attention to it if he didn't attempt to take anything from it. I would imagine when you're in that situation you're adrenaline is pumping something fierce.

Anyways, if you tightened up your house with security I wouldn't worry about it. My house was broken into a few years back, before I began growing. After the burglary I had an alarm installed, window detectors and motion sensors galore. I also own guns. Come on in

weeduser · Jul 27, 2011

Well he sure saw my grow and I assume he knew what was going on. I also put bars on windows, steel doors, fake cameras and installed alarm. So I think I'm safe.

Guns are not legal around here and I also don't believe in violence. Do maybe anybody know for a case where somebody was busted because bugler did snitch him.

tip top toker · Jul 28, 2011

Why does there need to be a prior case? It' a perfectly viable possibility depending on the burglars mindset.

weeduser · Jul 28, 2011

I agree that it depends on individual. But it happened before to other people and I would like to know their experience.

Unless the person was an enemy of yours and looking to completely ruin your life, you shouldn't even worry. The guy just robbed you. I can't see him having the audacity to call the police on you...

I agree with this. It really sucks that you've been 'exposed' but it's been six months. If you do decide to grow again just do it smart and safe and I wouldn't worry about it.

Try your best not to let on that your starting up again. If you buy supplies, be discreet with how you bring them into the house. Try not to let your neighbors see what you have. Ask for stealth shipping no matter what have delivered to your house. Most people wont notice little things like weird items in odd places like dryer ducting in the bedroom. Little things that a person in the know would have no problem linking to a grow op. Specialized soil and fertilizers... Bags of soil even tho you don't have a garden in the front/back yard.... Hauling R/O water bottle into your house more than regularly....dumping water from in your house to the front yard.
Little tip off's that give you away to people that know what to look for.
