(36,827 posts)You can grow a shitload of pot with a 4x4 hydroponic light tent setup. Placed in a basement or interior room, no cop is going to be able to detect it. If you are trying to make a profit doing it, you'd need a bigger operation and would be more likely to get caught.

(20,176 posts)It wasn't until after I'd taken Nyquil for the cold and eaten 3/4 of a pint of H-D Rum Raisin that I realized they'd used real rum and not rum flavoring. I may have been mute but that was a good night.

(12,132 posts)out of the house across the street from my Grandpa. (He lives in Wekiva).
This was many years ago. some folks went away in hand-cuffs too.
edit~ no, I did not poke around to see if they forgot anything...but I wanted to.

However, if two EXTREMELY placid goats are for sale in an area that is capable of either outdoor growing or someone being negligent with several plants...
The goats were happy, and I know why...
(Edit: it wasn't actually me who was the negligent party... but they did get the best prices at auction...)

(50,130 posts)I lived down the block from one about ten years ago. I am so naive and stupid, that every time I walked past that house I remarked on the skunk odor. LOL. The very weird thing about it was that on one side, the neighbor was retired LAPD. On the other side and across the street lived active county sheriff deputies. I am not sure if they were in on it or not. They could not possibly have been ignorant of what was happening.
But in answer to your question. All windows were totally covered all the time. Cars came and went constantly. Many cars. No one would say hello or make eye contact. And the smell was very, very strong.

(73,631 posts)Oh course, an overly warm house does not meet the legal requirement for probable cause.
However, that won't stop them from starting an investigation, rummage through your trash, checking you for priors, tracking down your credit charges, putting you under surveillance and building a case against you.
There's also launching a sting operation against you, sniffing around your property with K-9 units, tracking down your utility expenses, contriving false testimony, planting evidence, staging false complaints, lying to D.A.s and judges...

(50,560 posts)When I was a kid, we had a weed grower/dealer living next door to us. (No, I never went up there.) We lived on the side of a mountain, and you could see this guy's house from several blocks away. When he had some ready to sell, he turned on the Rainier sign in his front window and all his customers would show up in the middle of the night to buy it.
I say "grower/dealer" because there's no damn way he was growing as much as he was selling.
