wrong! you got no idea! i've shredded pants off on thorn plants getting down into creeks to avoid arrest more than once over one or two plants. i've played squirrel on an oak tree ( circling a big oak tree to keep the helicopter on the other side of view) over two very small plants. i've had a dea agent ( at least a guy wearing a dea jacket) staking out 1 plant 4' tall. the level of fanatical overzealous attacks from helicopters is beyond the belief system of anyone who hasn't gone thru it repeatedly. my roommate has trouble believing the accounts i try to convey.I hate to be a buzzkill, but the idea of multiple aircraft chasing somebody down over a single plant, is a little over the top.
^https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=152725&page=9i'm doing an od metro guerrilla grow. i've lost countless gardens to helicopters; we've got 2 full time heli.'s that are constantly "bass fishing for mj plants". i've also followed the beer cans to several of my od grows over the years (rippers). i try to stay out of my areas unless i need to be in there.

three years ago a helicopter pilot took his heli down under power lines to see the plants (reported to poo poo by kids that saw me and found the plants (6 in total) because unless he got below tree top level the plants were too small to make out from the air (12" tall just after initial spring transplant outdoors). this was near a soccer field and a park area and if his blades had hit one of the power lines some people probably would have died from the crash. that zealous. i was there watching from the woods. i heard the thump thump thump and stayed hidden and watched this happen. if i had known kids were getting into the woods around there i would not have planted there.
you can't grow more than a few plants here in any location and tub grows are out of the question. go to my album and see how few plants i have and how well concealed they are. i can't keep an outdoor grow location for more than a couple of years in the past.
i suspect the helicopter pilots are bored and this is big time sport. the judges and district attorneys here are cool about small personal grows (will reduce charges to misdemeanors) but the skin head heli pilots are way way over the top.
^https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=152725&page=9let me make this statement: very very few do outdoor metro grows 'cause down deep they know! very few admit how dangerous it is for someone else who is doing it but they wouldn't dare try to pull this off. until you actually do outdoor metro grows in nazi territory you don't know.
the reason i just love this thread is because finally fellow ic members are getting a true life account of what these od metro grows in neonazi territory are all about. that's why i just love this thread!
my area has two full time heli's in the air most times and dispatch sends out heli's for anything that a patrol car can't check out re tips. i'm out in areas that cars can't get to.Why would they send a helicopter to check out a tip by some kids? I don't get it?
