This is an odd post and I don't mean to offend. You should be able to use your own judgement on something like this. It is your place, you know what police activity is generally like. Was there a reason for them to be near your home? Do you throw your trim in the trash? Do you have a record? There are numerous questions you should ask yourself...follow your SOBER judgement when making a call about police.

Good luck

A 250W HPS won't throw off enough heat to be detected, I think that should be the least of your worries. You should concentrate on reducing the smell of your grow and not telling anybody about it!

punc-tu-a-tion -noun the practice or system of using certain conventional marks or characters in writing or printing in order to separate elements and make the meaning clear, as in ending a sentence or separating clauses.

I'm not sure what advice I can impart. I guess the best thing you could do is try to be more careful. Not saying you should watch over your shoulder and start carrying a gun, but evaluate your current method of cleaning up and keeping yourself undetected.

Try and figure out a way to improve things, such as seeing if theres a way to make the smell less detectable, find a better way to dispose of trimmings, etc. If you smoke at home (which I can only assume you do) think about how you smoke. Maybe you've been smoking outside a lot or you just have one too many nosey neighbors. Either way, just try and be careful. I don't have enough info on your situation and I don't feel like attempting to translate some of the posts in this thread but like I said, just be careful.

Good luck

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that they are not after you!

Seriously,a 250W light is trivial. I have a 400W HPS and in the context of the larger situation- That of an entire house of this size- That is trivial. As long as you are not stealing power- I wouldn't worry about that at all. It all comes under the rubric of what I call- "Staying under the radar"

amusing because....

amusing because....

This is kind of amusing to me only because I know I do it to myself sometimes too. I cant help it I am just always paranoid. But not a bad paranoid IMO. Its a healthy paranoia . Where I always double check things. I never EVER tell any1 that I know personaly that I am growing. Telling people can make you very paranoid! Trust me! That is why I never ever tell anyone anymore.

Just really get a grip and really think about who you have told and whats going on in your life at the moment. If you got enemies and they know you grow that could make someone paranoid. If thats a reason then you should really think about packing it up until you feel safe again.

But never react without thinking long and hard about what is really going on.

Dude, I run 1000's of watts and have a cop 3 doors away living there and a CSI at the end of the block. A 250 is like 4 light bulbs. If you can't handle the smoke, take pills!

as far as the lights are concerned, i think it would be issue. follow me... i got 3 100w light bulbs in my ceiling. most people have their light bulbs in the ceiling for obvious reasons. question is, what is someone to think about an energy source radiating from the vertical center of a room. maybe a small lamp for reading! but a 250 watt reading lamp?

im thinkin, they've got those detectors on your house right now and they've seen or maybe they're seeing right now some "250 watt" white hot color hovering around 4 feet in your closet! either you've got aliens or you're growing weed. maybe you're growing aliens! whoa.

look on the back of that $20 bill man... RED TEAM GO GO GO.. WATCH OUT, THEY'RE COMIN FOR YA!

:laughing:

sorry! i got carried away!

Stealing leccy is the stupidest thing you can do, unless you were just trying to be sarcastic. You shouldn't have any problems with heat seekers on anything less than 1000 watts or maybe even more i would think. you would have a problem if you told a bunch of people. who keeps calling you a pussy? you friends? don't even tell them unless they'r doing it themselves!

no i just thought that steal elec would not clock up massive readings and cause high alert and im talkin about grows with more than a couple thousand where its impossible to pay it anyway even if u wanted 2
