Now you might call me paranoid but I know that police have those infra red camera's to catch growers, therefor its got me a bit worried. My first thought was... 'how would they know to come round here lookin for growers...or was it just a routine police copter flyin around'. Then I started gettin more and more paranoid and started racking my brain for reasons. Then I remembered that a couple weeks back I went to my local and got pissed up and blurted my whole 'growing thing' to the pub (stupid thing to do). Plus there's a couple ladz that I've had problems with who would probably take the opportunity to grass me out.
So now Im contemplaiting throwing my plants away or putting them on flowering cycle to see if they're male or female. So if they're male I can chuck em away and if they're female I can relocate them to 1 of my mates.
What should I do, am I just worrying about nothing? Can I put them on flowering cycle at this age? (pic enclosed)?? How will I know if they're female or not, and how long will it take to tell after I put them on a cycle??
