Hello fellows,

I hope you feel good, the outdoor season is here and i would like to ask some help about the security in an outdoor guerilla garden please.

Im concerned about the fingerprints we can leave on tools and plastic cans or fences. so please i would like to ask to the experienced outlaw growers, how to clean fingerprint on tools ? which kind of gloves i must wear when working in the garden ? and what i need to worry about fingerprints on other surface of my garden please ? at risk to look a little dumb, does touching my plants is a problem ?
thank you

Gizmo

I leave my tools every now and then when I have a guerilla plot "under construction". Yes, if you don't mind carrying your tools in and out of the bush every time you visit and stealth is not a concern or it isn't a concern of security then go ahead and haul them back and forth. Personally I have never had a problem with it.

I usually leave mine a good distance from the plot of course, in thick brush, covered with thick brush, leaves and so forth. They are strict on growing here but never in my life have I ever heard of the LEO's finger printing grow tools. Usually around here they cut it down and fly on to the next plot they find and don't really waste time looking around. There is so much marijuana grown here in Eastern Kentucky that they just worry about eradicating it and really is a waste of there time and resources to investigate and set in on things. Now, i'm not saying they won't or don't, but if it is a very large grow or with lots of numbers "think a commercial patch" then it is possible they will set up surveillance or send tools to a lab.

Just wear gloves if you are that worried. One thing I have learned out in the bush is that paranoia will eat you alive and ruin your drive for growing if you let it get to you. I'm not paranoid anymore and pull way better grows and harvests now days. About the only time I get paranoid anymore is when the black hawks aka "black bird" is hoovering over my head or if i'm in the bush and I hear one coming up in the distance. Now boy is that a heart thumper!

I agree with MountainBudz. I've always left my stuff out near sites. Had a few sites narced out to the KSP (lol), and never had that present a problem (tools onsite). Troutman is right too.

I would think testing for fingerprints would be waste of time. Do you realize how many overlapping sets there would be, making a true ID impossible. If they find your site, they would set up cameras if they wanted a bust. I worry more about satellites and drones. I have seen detailed photo's of my house from google earth, and the government probably has access to 100 times better pictures.

I know a guy that does only new installations of residential and commercial heating and cooling. His company pays for real or almost real time satellite images. They can use it to check out systems on roofs, do estimates etc. Costs about 5k a month from what I remember.

I just looked at google earth. They have downgraded the pictures. They are trying to sell a premium service, google earth pro. I used to be able to makeout the barbecue in my backyard. So "50" can see anything, easily.

It boils down to does your "50" serve and protect, or are they a-holes.

I have had "50" in house 3 times in 2 years for elderly mother, and house reaked. I am small hobbyist, who is living ghetto. I am not hurting anyone, and we pay insane property tax.

1990 ariel survey

1990 ariel survey

I just recebtly found an ariel survey of my 10 yr 100 plant grow plot dated 1990
I found it via google earth by run back date.

is misty but recognisble to me.

police raided the owners land ,the year i didnt grow 1992 i believe

What tipped me off was fact the uniformed police took 4 mnths to serve an unpaid speeding fine warrant to his wife on april 1st which was the day i plant seed.

The owner had been getting 10% cash of my crop
He was also to dumb to realise how cops work.
I had to shout in his face to get him to realise it was fuked

Drug squad raided my house and his farm on october the 15th
Not even a roach found .A

Be alert guys jealous people snitch

You would have to think that "50" can get way better resolution than google earth. They do not spend billions on spy satellites for nothing.
