Operation Papa Cider: Seven people charged and over $5 million worth of cannabis seized. On March 26, police searched a Kessler Road, Old Talgai address, locating 1825 cannabis plants and over 139 kilograms of dried cannabis.
Queensland Police: As part of an ongoing successful operation targeting the production, distribution and trafficking of cannabis, seven people have been charged and over $5,000,000 worth of cannabis seized. Operation Papa Cider, an ongoing operation conducted by State Crime Command’s Drug and Serious Crime Group has already resulted in many arrests, including the arrest of two people and the seizure of $1,350,000 worth of cannabis seized from growhouses in Moorooka, Upper Mount Gravatt and Annerley on June 15. On March 26, detectives from the Drug and Serious Crime Group, assisted by members of Warwick CIB and Toowoomba Dog Squad executed a search warrant at a Kessler Road, Old Talgai address.
During the search, police located 1825 cannabis plants with an estimated value of $4,562,500 and over 139 kilograms of dried cannabis with a value of $918,000. Three people were arrested at this location and were charged with production and possession of dangerous drugs charges. Representatives from the Australian Border Force (ABF) attended to conduct migration status checks and to interview persons of interest, and also to check for other border-related offences. The ABF confirmed that two of the individuals were unlawful non-citizens and one was working in breach of a Bridging Visa. On March 27, a 48-year-old woman, two men (both aged 46) and a 45-year-old man were arrested following the interception of vehicles in the Leyburn area. Four of the offenders were charged at the Warwick watchhouse and held in custody to appear before the Warwick Magistrates Court yesterday morning.

Yeah they were Vietnamese. Heaps of Vietnamese farmworkers around that region, normally vege pickers. I guess pot pays more.
"Operation Papa Cider included Australian Border Force (ABF) officials, who found three of those charged were Vietnamese nationals who were in the country illegally."

Rod58, I done a fair bit of indoors. So can offer you advice if you decide to go that way. I only ever did one room with 5 600w lights, but would get over an lb a light pretty easy. My first grow was indoors. Got no power here, so it is not an option now. I didn't want to run more than 5 just cause I paid for power. Was scared it would look weird if I did more, and I thought it was too small a village to cut the power. The most important thing with indoors is timing. If you are always flowering, you will do well. If you are vegging in your flower room, you will be waiting too long between paydays. 103?.. Really, you should be dead dude.
thanks for the offer pumpkin , more info the better me thinks .
i've read a lot about LED's but i'm really not convinced yet , re; price of them , then metal halides , HPS , gavita's ..shit , its doin my head in already ! ..
all i usually worry about is the sun , thats easy !
see we had a big bust last week too . same area as the one a year ago where i think they got 7000 ? plants in a greenhouse .
3000 this time and i think they were viet's too .

looking lush smurf ,
always envious of the dry finish you guys get ,
great place to grow i reckon ...
Thanks fellas,
lol it is a bit messy!
those tiny tots in front are from seed Sticky,
they were planted in the patch late jan to mid feb hence their size.
Fingers crossed it stays dry wal, have had a bit of rain these last 2 wk ends
but nothing like what you guys have had!
Apart from soil amendments,, molasses, kelp, nettle & compost tea is all
they've received this yr.
Have any of you guys heard of 'cloud busting'?
I thought someone here might like to research the topic,
see if it really works & possibly end the misery of moldy buds,
anyway let me know what you think. Here's something I found....

Thanks Smurf
Never heard of cloud bursting but had a strange experience last year... we were on the terrace with a friend enjoying the first cookie "waves" when a terribly aggressive chemical smell almost suffocated us... i'm in the tropical jungle and the closest neighbour is 500 m away... Anyway, i asked most neighbors and nobody had sprayed anything... Even if i stopped using them 30 years ago, i'm familiar with chemicals used in agriculture and it didn't resemble anything i know. My friend litterally ran away after asking me to leave with him and indeed i should have... Thanks to the wind it lasted only about 15 mn but these were long ones...Apart from the very chemical smell, it was almost unbearable to breath... My throat was instantly constricted and raspy like i had screamed for hours, and i had a freezing cold sensation in my lungs every time i inhaled... i remember thinking i was going to die there, and being glad my wife wasn't home... Had splitting headaches for weeks after that... Never knew what it was but i hope i'll never experience that again...

"Negative etheric energy in clouds. It's what makes everyone sick as well..."
Claims he can "bust" clouds out of the sky and make it sunny by pointing his 8 foot long piece of galvanized stove pipe at them.
"It's a well known fact that the science works but nobody can really fully explain how." Like witch doctor surgery with no scalpel, no incision.
You want someone to research this? Are you serious? Send me $50 I'll send you some positive etheric energy for realz bro.

The idea that HAARP can effect weather ?
Even cause earth quakes .
HAARP = weather is the manifestation of people looking for patterns in random events . Makes them feel safer / smarter / better informed to think they know what is causing the random events .
