I've made many mistakes over the past 30 years of growing, but the biggest one was telling this one dude I knew I grew.

ugh....cant and don't want to go into details, but guys, don't tell anyone...

Sounds like you guys deal with some shady people.

I live in a med state, and I'm not worried about any of my closet friends robbing me or telling the wrong person.

Can't imagine having to live like a hermit again. I did that 10 years ago when AZ was not MMJ friendly.

Those writing they are "legal" you may be state legal but you still are NOT federally legal.

Hence they got you by the balls if they chose to.

It sucks having lots of good smoke and not being able to share it with friends. I have pot that I wish I could give away, but it's just too risky.

When I see video of farms in California growing the 10lb plants it sort of makes me shudder. I mean they have scripts to satisfy the criminal defense on a state level, but feds are worried about money. It is not carved in stone that the feds will only go after someone that breaches 99 plants. If they think you are making too much money they could swarm down any time. And when you have scores of 10lb plants and $2500 per pound that is an awful lot of money. The fellow on this site that had a huge grow in Humboldt county didn't want to talk about money for a very good reason.

3000 x 10 = $30,000 times 30 plants = $900,000 That is what will get you arrested. It's all about money. You bet your life they are looking at this site, facebook, youtube, myspace just about any source you can think of. If you bust someone with the means to make that kind of bud you have assets to cease.

Tell all the stoners you want and see if they dare penetrate your guard towers with guns, lights that come on and wild dogs. Cops come with their own guns and a warrant. They are not afraid to use them.

Lay it on us man!


This is the gist of it..A few people know me as someone who once in awhile has great herb to share in limited quantities, and not all the time. I always go out of my way to NOT look like Im growing by not hooking people up with large amounts of weed, and not hooking people up all the time.

I was at a bar Friday night with one of these guys just shooting darts and sipping beers. The guy who knows I grow stops in and basically blows my cover wide open. Needless to say I was, and am pissed. I don't think the guy who I was hanging with has grasped the whole situation, but he would have to be a complete idiot to not put together enough from the conversation that took place that I am more than someone "who can get small amounts of good herb once in awhile".

Now, the reason this guy knows I grow is because a few years back I started a huge outdoor grow, than injured my back and was basically bedridden. I knew this guy grew, and enlisted his help in finishing my outdoor grow. It was either that or lose the whole crop that year. Since than we have had sporadic interactions, some have just been a PITA, but this was the first time I have seen him do something this stupid.

Tell no one, trust no one...

If I had it to do all over again I would have let that outdoor crop I started and couldn't finish myself rot in the ground before I told anyone about it.
 
Whenever I end up doing this sort of thing-I won't for a while, got in a bit of trouble-I will let no one know. What good can come of it unless you're in a med state and playing by the rules?

Agreed. Number one rule, if you do not follow this then forget security altogether on my opinion...
