Well, a guy I partner up with on larger grows from time to time and get to help me with my smaller ones just outed my grow to his latest (4th in three years and only dating for less than a year) hussy.

I needed some help getting water out to my grow since my day job has had me traveling this week so asked him to lend a hand. I wasn't around when he showed up but left the jugs of water that needed to be carried to the grow spot out for him..

A week later I meet up with those two for dinner (my treat as compensation for him helping me) and she starts talking about the excursion that she took with him to my grow spot. It was obvious he didn't want her to let on about him bringing her, as he shot her a look that clearly said "keep quiet".

Pretty irritated about this. In order to access the grow spot they had to have come to my property, so now there is one more person that knows I grow. I've met her before and don't really have any issues with her, but there was simply no need for the guy to introduce her to the fact that I grow.


I hate to be a dickhead, but I'm simply going to have to tell the dude to not come around anymore since he has such a lackadaisical attitude towards security issues.

I know some of you have S.O.'s that are in on your stealth grows, but how many of you that fall into that category would let your S.O. know about someone else's grow??

They both need to go! Sorry about your situation.

It's the hardest thing todo is not to talk, ppl think they need to impress or fill the void of conversation all the bloody time. It's ridiculous


She maybe cool but we never know.

Why don't u go order some ricin call yaself Muhammad Ali n go search the dark web. Just don't mention your looking to buy any bunny rabbits

yeah, he was clearly trying to score himself some cool points with his woman and it ended up costing him a good friend I expect ...

that's one of the reasons I love this place, we can talk shop here, it's about the only place I can, here and at I|C420 cup when you all come for a visit :D

Ditto. Why people can't just shut the fuck up about stuff simply amazes me.

Tell no-one is definitely the way forward. Greed does funny things to good people and once booze is involved, tongues become looser, people want to score the cool points and things have a nasty way of escalating.

Well......my question now is this...after you tell him that he's "fired", will he cop an attitude and do some adverse shit?

I seen this many times: (imo) you should walk away from this grow and this couple
you telling the guy 'not to come around again, is giving him diss to wreck your situation anyway, he will rip you off or blab!, ...either way you are done, if you can harvest or relocate now, is good, but really only you are at fault here ....not him!

Dude! That seriously sucks. If you live in a mj friendly state you might still be okay, but otherwise you might want to seriously consider chopping.

Or adopt a big ass dog and put his house right next to the plot maybe.

In any case, unless you live in a mj friendly state, do not grow on your own property, at least next year again anyway. And maybe never again.

ALWAYS, respect rule #1. And just don't trust anyone, even a grow buddy. Sorry you had to learn the importance of that rule the hard way.

My wife is a grower too so if I was tending someones crop id tell them upfront she will likely come help or possibly even cover you a day I cant but id be upfrot about it. She wouldnt tell anyone and her being able to help me would be a condition. Plus if it was a outdoor then it looks like a couple on a walk but your buddies girl obviously isint a grower shooting her mouth off. Hes a dickhead for not telling you, trying to hide it they are both big mouths. Be careful saying you dont want to chill anymore lest it get out of hand.

Be careful who you tell about your grows. A couple of my friends know and help me once in a while but ive known them all for 10 years +... and id outline my rules DONT SHOW OR TELL ANYONE ABOUT MY SHIT! If you didnt make that clearvto him its almost to be expected. People should be smarter but they arent.

Basically be smart. If tou cant tent your crop all the time look into hydro indoors. Rez changes once every week are two are enough. I try to get my wife to help me with everything though so my friends are around less its less risky because its her shit too so shes careful. We dont want to loose our shit or me get in trouble or get ripped etc.

Thats another thing. Showing someone got my shit ripped back in 2013. Had to start over all over again it sucked... but I replaced my cheap shitty gear with all top of the line so theres a silver lining (5 thousand dollar silver lining, I have the gear for a complete 4 square meter setup, plus a 1 square meter tent im running right now) whatever all you can do is stay positive and move on. It was a killer upgrade of all brand new stuff. I consider myself lucky I have lots of really sweet top of the line gear, like gavita ballasts... im using hortilux super hps but planning a switch to full spectrum light in the future.

Anyway enough about me, all im saying is be cautious...

I wouldn't give any outward appearance of being put off by the situation. I'd be cool to that guy but keep him at arms length from here on out. I'd especially never give his lady friend any need to think about that one time excursion to that one guys house.

Just assume the lady has told everyone she knows about your
grow, and how pissed you are that she knows.

Govern yourself accordingly.

Base people have an unwritten policy about sharing secrets
about other people with each other to keep from dealing with their
own shit.

It's called displacement, a common defense mechanism among
neurotic types.

Good luck with your new grow location.
 
Old rule of thumb for doing illegal grow: every person other than you who knows is a 10% chance of getting busted. Let 10 people know and have 100% chance of getting in trouble. Seems 2 or 3 would be too many if 1 was not already.

Good luck!

i'd just be cool until this one is harvested if you think you are safe until then. i would NOT let him know he is out of the loop, so to speak, until this grow is gone. piss him off before then, he will take it out on her, and she'll run her yap to everyone she knows about what a prick YOU are. it goes without saying that you can never grow at that spot again. if it was me, honestly, i would cut & burn, tell him the law did it, and move...hate it for you.

This would take time and effort but might be well worth it in the long run. Transplant to prepped new location that you can use again. But this time tell absolutely no one where.
