from my experience with my ex-wife. I would be worried if she new where my grow was, because that bitch has done everything she can to make my life hell. She brainwashed my kids into hating me, and my kids used to love me. Some women are just plain cruel. If you have another place that she doesnt know about. I would move my grow there.
i had to pull my plants last night... to be on the safe side...
hide them at mine
if this ever happened to me i'd shut down IMMEDIATELY; i would think that that would be more than enough evidence to get a warrant; good call shutting down
Legally? No, judges are NOT going to issue a warrant based on hearsay!!! That is not enough probable cause.Quote:

This info comes directly from my attorney-- I had to jump through some MAJOR hoops, including ditching my entire grow, when I kicked my ex out.
Does that mean you can think you are safe, no way. Shit happens and they still might get a warrant somehow.. or do it by showing up for a knock and talk and if they see or smell anything suspicious, can then seal the property until they get the warrant.
But that's super super expensive and you don't even want to GO there.
The thing is though that if the hearsay starts flying, you could be under much more scrutiny.
Did your ex see your grow? if so. Then yes that is a warrant to kick your door down. Other wise stinkyattic hits the nail on the head.
Let me try to tell my story and make it short.
Fact one, if someone sees drugs or plants at your place this is not hearsay it's a warrant.
Fact two, if someone buys from you it's a warrant.
That's the two ways to get a warrant. I learned alot when i got busted. and they wanted me to narc on someone. Never going to happen.
Ok my nephew is busted for coke, He saw my grow room. only one on earth to see it. He comes to my house to buy from me. No way it's going to happen, I'm growing for meds and family. He gets pissed. Told him two weeks till ready. I harvest a week early. One day before he thought I was to harvest 4 narc's at my door for stop and talk.
I walk out my door and close it. Asshole Jack says I smeel pot. That's a warrant, I'm fucked. Then he tells me exactly what is in my grow room in my shed. I tell him I know it's my nephew cause he is the only one that could tell him that. He says lets talk.
He threatens to take my wife and son to jail with me.
I agree to cooperate if wife and son gets to leave. Deal is made.
He thinks I got buds in my shed but wants to enter my home cause my nephew says I have a phototron inside. I show him my tron and 3/4 pounds killer couch lock papaya buds, Dank. They take pictures of everything. I had sea of green in my shed for five months going.
They take everything, POW POW POW. I watch them drive away with only one joint hid outside. I sat down smoked my bud and cried as they drove off.
Went to narc's office one week later. They tell me how to bust someone to help myself and do their job for them. I lead them on.
First thing I get a lawyer. Narc's say 5 to 7 felonies and misdemeanor. Lawyer says you telling me truth , I say yes. Next day he goes down to narc's office and see's the warrant with nephews name on it on their desk. Comes out and says three felonies and misdemeanor.
About six months or so lawyer calls, be at my office tomarrow. I plea bargain the next day in court to one felony for intent to sell and deliver. Just to piss me off because I would not sell. Narcs smoked all my dank for xmas. I'm a legend hydro grower in my small town.
8 to 12 months jail, suspended. 24 months supervized probation. I am on month 4. No smoke I'm one pissed monkey.
8864 dollars ileagle substance tax. 2500 laywer. 750 fine and court cost. 300lab test fee. 30 a month probation.
If they come to your door do not open it till you find out if they have warrant. If no warrant tell them to go away. Do not open door. If they smell or say they smell it you done for.
Life sucks, i was helpng cancer dudes that 2 are now dead, I know 3 more but can't help. Wife is pissed and she don't forget very easy. Son knows I got in trouble but not sure for what. Waiting my time out and helping on the hydro section and growing veggies for now.
Peace man I hope you got all things out and stay safe.
California dreaming.
so.... all they have to do is say they smell it...
Well, im just going to cut ALL ties and just give it time.
LOC NAR wow sorry for what u went through bro i hope you do something to your cousin fuckin rat.If your stupid enough to get caught with coke do the time dont rat anyone out.
Evert loc nar is right if she saw your grow its not hearsay its fact im glad u tore everything down.Freedom is worth more than some plant you can always grow in the future.When i dont know but give it at least a year just to make sure.
i guess it really depends how much risk you're going to take; i'm extremely low-risk; if anyone accidentally found out about my grow, i'd shutdown, even a close buddy; it's up to you, to me it's just not worth the risk; heck i'd probably shut down if someone looked at me the wrong way ;)
Bobby i dont blame you i wouldnt even think of growing if i lived in the states.Fuck going to jail for 20 years for a few plants not this guy.
Keep your shop clean for awhile bro, you never know what these crazy bitches can do now aday. Even if they dont come knocking on your door ......this is when they start snooping around ....so be safe and stay low key that the life we have to live as growers of gods holy herb.
Yep stay low bro and if that bitch turns u in go medievil on her ass.
well what can be considered "attempted manufacture of a controlled substance"? a stack of hight times and a light... what??? anyone know?
evert, just get all that shit out of your house.
No sense in risking it.
They see growing books, they can be like, cool, we're bringing in dogs, a dog gets a hit, they find stems in your compost heap or leaves under your sofa, you're still fooked.
damn... thanks stinky
Bro clean up shop, wipe it out....grow books, DVD's .....even if you had the mylar or plastic to line your room ...get rid of it take them far away for awhile. All the cops want is a good reason which can be smell books lights or whatever and you can be screwed. If your girl ratted you out, the case is open anything else they find is evidence not a tip which mean you get to rid down town and the heart ache starts. Just stay kool and stay low until you know exactly what she did. Smoke at a frenz and dont have any in the car ...and you'll be good. Good luck bro
Oh and evertking, i've always use this as a rule of thumb ...this is just my rule tho but it might be helpful for next time. Make sure that anyone who knows about your grow has just as much to lose as you. Thats your only true security. No one wants to get busted so everyone will keep there mouth shut even if you break up with her cause she would be on the same ship as you. Just a thought.
Well, after all the moving around, I gave NORML a call and, he said " a tip is not enough but, add utility bills and, what ever you might left in the trash... so on.. they would have some thing to work with"
Attempted manufacture...is very rare but, possible.
Man its a crazy world.... a light... no. Light and a grow book...yeah
Once you put your rubbish on the curb it becomes property of the town and they can rummage through it like seagulls...
Stinky, would you have any thought on my question re: firearm ownership and MMJ in this forum?
Havent been on in a while but i am sorry to hear it didnt work out with your ex.
For God sakes close your grow now!
I had to deal with a crazy ex once.
It is not worth your freedom.
i think im suffering from separation anxiety
