First off, I'm a legal grower in a MMJ legal state. I"m well under my stem count, tho "usable" weight might be a bit of a vex given the loose consideration of what's "Usable"
None the less, I've been doing this for 2+ years as a hobbyist for the sheer enjoyment of growing such an interesting plant.
Security has always been high on my list, my neighbors are what I'd call "friends" but only one of them knows we grow MMJ.
My biggest problem is being so close to a main drag,... if someone turns off when getting pulled over by LEO,.... guess where they stop!? Yeah, right in my front yard
:
I've never been much paranoid about the room since it's small (<2kw) and legal, plus scent is easily handled with a carbon filter,.... However, I compost clippings after I run them thru bubble bags, as well as dirt from spent grows, and add to it that my drying cab wasn't filtered and that would make the house REEK of weed!
My wife was always opposed to filtering the drying cab (under the stairs to the basement where the room is) because I'd have to tap a hole in another wall to run ducting for filtration.
After harvesting yesterday, I did just that without her permission. The house reeked,... I could smell it outside! So I did what needed to be done.
I'd say my work did it's job tonight tho!
As I said, close to main drag,... well what do you know, tonight somebody F'd up and got stopped,..... then a second unit showed up, and the driver was detained (bear in mind this is all going down 30 feet from my grow!) Then a 3rd unit showed up with a fuckin DOG!!!!!!!!!
My heart has never raced like it did tonight, legal in the state or not, my local city refuses to acknowledge the voter's rights and has banned all MMJ activity.
I have no idea if the dog alerted on the house because we played it off like it was a normal stop which happens at least 2-3 times a month here and weren't watching the entire stop like a spy.
I seriously just hope I'm paranoid and we don't get a knock on the door any time soon!

Glad to hear everything's OK!
