Pg&E guy at 7 in the morning

Whats up guys, my 4k stadium in my garage has me kind of paranoid since i have 48 plants, i know im stupid for doing it but i nailed the door to my gas meter shut which is access to the garage.. my exhaust is right next to it too out a vent. well this morning around 7am my girl friend was leaving for class and she said a pg&e guy in a blue shirt asked if she lived there? she said no but would you like me to get them? he said no it's ok. he said hes trying to get to the gas meter but it's locked.
after she called me i immediately took the screws out and it's fine, except the black plastic and fan noise ugh time to build a box around the meter. she said his car was some old beater car not pg&e truck. since it was closed he probably noted my house down. do you think he was just checking the meter?? it was the GAS meter too, not electricity. i figured they don't need to check since it's a smart meter.. i've been switching bulbs on and off from 3k on 24/7 to 4k 20/4 just last night. i'm not sure do you guys think i should chop down my 3 week vegged clones, 42 of them.. and veg those 6 out to trees i'd have to tear my beautifully built stadium down, or take it out to around 12 plants, using 4 shelves instead of 8 :(

i rent from my parents, they own it. no im beyond my limits, i think it's 6 per patient here in my county, i'm up around 48. i'm going to reroute my exhaust to another vent under the house today and build a box around the gas meter so they can access it without spotting a wall of plastic. and possibly chop down half the plants and use 2 shelves each side of the stadium 4 total, rather than 8.. i think another 2-3 weeks veg would be worth the comfort. almost... i just have 9 different c99 phenos i cant surrender without finding the pineapple

Most of the gas meters that I know of have a lithium powered transmitter in them that will only last a few years. If the battery is dead they will be wanting to physically look at the meter until the battery is replaced. Be careful.

I have a different company, but mine was going around getting the numbers off the meters because a certain lot had a defective part and they had to replace them. I wouldn't be surprised if they all buy from the same company and this may be what they were doing. This person was a subcontractor and didn't have a company vehicle either.....
