How my ex wife screwed my Grow Op.

I did not know were to post this. So I will leave it to the moderators to move it if it needs to be moved. This was definitely an experience. One I hope to help all of you avoid. Heed these words for your freedom may depend on it.

I have been a grower for over five years. I did all the right things. Never told anyone about my grow. Covered my ass in all the right ways... Well except one thing...My soon to be ex wife.

I knew her for over ten years and we were married for over seven. I considered her my best friend and even a soul mate. I thought we would be together for the rest of our lives.

Rather than go through all the grueling explanations of how and why does not really matter. The fact is the relationship went to hell.

The last time I saw her was a last desperate attempt to save our relationship. It did not work. I went home after a huge fight and got incredibly stoned. After that I was crying in front of the computer for a while. I got tired of crying in front of the computer and decided to cry in bed. So I laid in bed for a while and balled my head off there.

Suddenly I got a creepy feeling of danger. I got up from the bed and longed back on to the computer and checked my wifes blog. My freedom flashed before my eyes. Her blog told of my grow operation in point and detail. She said the next time she would see me would be with the cops.

This was just posted a few minutes ago. It was 9:30pm. I freaked. My mind raced to the two grow rooms I had. One was for the vegetative state, it had a 400 watt mhz lamp with about 10 plants in various stages of growth. My flower room had a 1000 watt hps lamp with about 10 plants again in various stages of growth. I had a huge library of grow books and all kinds of paraphernalia all over the house. There were seed stashes hidden in a few different places.

It hit me like a ton of bricks...I have less than 10 hours to get my shit together emotionally and clean the house of any trace of stoner or grower activity.

My ex wife was popular in the little town we live in. Her blog had several hundred daily visitors. A good deal of her fans were in our little town and my whole family subscribed to the blog. Word would spread like fire.

So I spent the next 10 hours crying and tearing down my grow rooms. All of the plants were cut immediately and stashed in jars. I then climbed a tree in my back yard and stashed the jars. The pruning was just separating stems from any leaf or bud. Get the green in the jars and get them out of the house.
Then were all the 5 gallon buckets that I used to grow in. Note, these are heavy and when you consider there were times I could barely see because of crying it adds to the fun.

I took breaks frequently to catch my breath, get more stoned, cry and drink huge amounts of coffee.

Then I had all the grow equipment to deal with. Well this was late at night and the lights could not be in the house. So they went to a local dumpster. Then my grow books went to the dumpster. Anything related to growing pot got dumped. Then I had to remember where all my stashes were hidden. Then I had to vacuum to make sure there were no seeds in the carpet.

My last task was to get really stoned again and get the final stashes to the tree tops. I left enough in the house for a few joints. which I smoked when I got back. I aired the house out, lit some incense, cried a little bit more and then went to bed.

Less than 2 hours later there was a knock on the door. It was the local Sheriff. We knew each other because it is a small town.

I live in America. There is no real freedom here. If a cop thinks he has probable cause, he does. It does not matter what the law says.

He told me he was contacted about a pot growing operation buy some locals. I acted shocked and surprised and said to come in and show me where it was. He went right to my two grow rooms. Looked around while I made coffee and later admitted it was my ex and some locals that had read about it on her blog. I explained about the nasty divorce that was coming and blamed it all on the pissed soon to be ex wife. He laughed and noticed one of my pipes I had forgotten about by the computer and said I shouldn't leave things out in the open, laughed and said goodbye and left.

This sheriff is famous for busting grow operations. If there was more that a pipe I would have gone to jail or worse.

What have we learned from this kids?

If your sweetie knows that you grow, You need a back up plan if things go to hell.

Do you think your ex lover will not tell on you if she or her is pissed? You are wrong... Back up plan, you need it.

Think you squeez would never betray you. Watch out it can happen.

I was lucky. But if you are smart you will have a plan.

My ex once told me after she quit smoking pot that she would never do anything to betray my personal freedom. Ya right.

If your relationship is in trouble your freedom might be in trouble.

That was Manny months ago. The stash is gone. I have not gotten high in months. That is okay. I am free and will one day grow again. Now that I am divorced I will start to meet others that will sell me some kind soon. Later when I feel safe again I will grow again.

Be safe. Be free

There's only one thing you gotta do... Kill her.....





















Just Kidding :D

what an exciting story man, congradulations

holy shit, sketchin out is really good sometimes man...thats fucked up...wow, who can find that reasonable raping someones personal freedom over a plant...thats crazed

thats gotta be the saddest story ive read in a long time...what a fuckin bitch she was. at least you didnt get caught. Im sure you put a lot of work into those plants and all for nothing

most indoor grows are busted due to females with a grudge. Its a fact.

i kno.. i read that whole damn thing lol.. good read.. your ex is a complete BITCH.. why would your WIFE do that.. thats fucked up dude.. she definitely doesnt love you.. damn bitch

Bravo, this story kicked ass. Grats on getting it all gone (including the tears, sorry about your wife man...)

what a bitch, awesome story tho! you were fucking LUCKY to read her blog and have enough time to get rid of all your growing shit man... congrads on not being in jail :), start growing again in a year or two...

Duuuude....that fuckin sucks. All of those plants gone to shit. I woulda stashed the plants up in the trees also...if there was room. I might start growing in the spring...so this is good advice man...awesome story. U should turn it into a novel and get that shit published. lol.

Sorry to hear about your relationship.

At least you still got your freedom though. Good job cleanin' up, even if you missed a pipe.

Glad to hear you stayed out of jail.

Glad you got rid of it all (including the traitor)
Good story :)

Great story.
One question.
Would it have been possible to alter her blog before anyone important had seen it?
Not trying to stir up any regret, just a curiosity.

That was an amazing story and I am thankful you got that bad feeling that made you check her blog. I'm still a little shocked at the your dumbass ex-wife. If you want to ruin someone's life, you don't post it in a blog for the world to see before you do it. I'm glad for you she wasn't smart enough to realize that though.

I hope you do eventually go back to growing, maybe in a neighboring town?

Very good story man. It woulda broke my heart to have to get rid of all that stuff. but i'm glad your free. freedom is way more valuable than the plants. anyways thanks for sharin and good luck.

Holy shit what a great idea for a short thriller film.

Where is the dumpster?

You should move and start up another grow dude.

PS Mad law dodging skills there.

See, thats why i have no girlfriend, cant trust most of em.

lol great story lol i would have cried alot too lol i think your real smart for stashing it up in the trees, not so much for just 'dumping' the lights... surely a friend coulda taken them off your hands until you get another grow sorted? oh well, girlfriends/wives whatever, they are NEVER to be trusted with your grow, unless they do it with you... glad you got your freedom... peace

glad everything turned out ok in the end.

One Question, why did you feel it didnt mattered to explain why your relationship went to hell?
In my experience people don't take revenge unless they have good reason to.

Sounds an interesting time. I do find it quite funny how you were toking up all the time while tearing down your grow room and hid the chopped plants up the tree! What i would have done. Bet it was hard chucking all the lights, fans etc in the bin.:(

Yea man great story. Glad you got that shit down straight before you got too stoned. Hopefully the plants you cut got you stoned later on. But yea wait a year possibly and start again make or move. And make sure that bitches belongings are outa the house so she never can step inside again.

Thanks for all the replies. The whole experience was more surreal and strange than I could ever write about. I had about 4 hours sleep in about 3 days before the shit went down. As anyone who has experienced the frustration of divorce knows, it is no picnic.

To answer a few questions:

I did not go into detail about the fighting as it was not important to the message I was conveying. Regardless, I wanted my marriage to work and I was not the one who gave up. I still love the little bitch. I imagine what set her off was when she made me mad and at that moment I knew it was over. I stated to her that I was going to replace her with a 19 year old girl and I left.

Why did I dump the lights? Remember no one that I knew, except my ex, that I was growing pot. At that point and still I know no one who smokes that I trust. I do not even know anyone to buy pot from right now.

I just hope none of you have to go through what I went through and I was lucky. When I find the 19 year old girl she will smoke pot with me but will never know that I grow pot if and when I do.

I tried to go into the ex'es blog and delete it but she had changed her password. I also tried to call her and calm her down. She would not answer her cell phone.

There would be a thousand ways for me to get revenge on her, but that is not my way. She now lives close to Portland, OR so that is across the country from me. Let someone else deal with her as long as it is not me.

The events happened in June of this year. My divorce was finalized last week.
She has nothing on me know.

Between my stash and early harvest I stayed stoned for about 3 months. Pot helped me keep from going nuts.

If your significant other knows you grow make back up plans now in case your relationship goes to hell. Remember I thought I would be with her forever.

Where would you stash your lights and grow equipment? How long would it take you to disassemble your grow room when you are panicking and stoned? Do you have seeds and stashes all over the house? Are there stems here and there in your house? Where would you hide your green if you new the Man would be knocking at your door?

Plan these things ahead of time. Try to make your relationships work but realize you never really know what someone is going to do if they get real pissed.

I lived through the experience and that is why I am here posting about it. I advise never telling anyone you are in a relationship with about your grow. If they already know about it...Plan now or regret it later. But it is ultimately your decision and it it your freedom that you are playing with.

If this post even keeps one person from having to go to jail then I am glad I went through hell. No one should go to jail for a harmless plant.

i bet ur wife got in trouble for filing a false report :)

I do not think she did. In my small town it is the sheriff that pretty much decides what happens. I think you just wrote it off as a pissed woman and dropped the matter. Although you can be sure if I had not cleaned up the place and still had the grow, he would be smiling on the front page of our little newspaper bragging about busting another dope dealing terrorist. That is life in the land of the free.

Great story!! My girlfriend has threatened me before too and It really makes me mad to think about it!I'm pretty sure its mostly just talk though. I bet that this same has happened to thousands of growers.You acted fast man and it was a damn good thing brother oh yeah revenge is a dish best served cold. she defiantly deserves it!

Pack a glock, aim for the head, cap that bitch. Kiddin'.
Seriously, that has gotta be painful but you learn pick yourself up and start again.

Cant even grow a fucking plant - its ridiculous.

Damn, quick thinking man, good job. Great story also, even though it's sad :( I probably wouldn't have believed her... Be glad you didn't get a paraphanalia charge ;)

Wow, that's a sick story.
Yeah you are pretty fucking impressive to be able to do all that in 10 hours, especially with the divorce going on, I haven't gone through one but I know friends who have, it sure seems like hell.

I'm surprised the sheriff didn't give a shit about the pipe. What did you do with the grow rooms?

whatta bitch

that sucks but at least your not in jail. theres always another grow

theres another grow, just likes theres more girls out there.

your ex wife is a straight up old fashioned BITCH

and they dont make her kind like they used to

later

damn that sucks. You should have taken all your grow shit over to her place while she was at work or something and set it up then call the cops on her. That'd teach her to fuck with you.

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!

I almost passed out when I read that she posted about your grow in DETAIL on her BLOG!

Shit............

I would SECRET WINDOW her ass.

Step 1:Dont get married to a bitch your not sure about.Step2:Dont tell ANYBODY about your grow opperation, matter of fact dont get married if you plan on having a grow opperation.step3:when you dump a bitch anything negative she's ever heard about you will come back to bite you squarly in the ass.Step4:if she did to you what your telling us you was'nt shit to her in the first place.Step5:KILL THE BITCH!!!What she did to you was lower than being some shit i just stepped in.

Damn crazy story man. Sorry all your hard work went to waste.

yea, the ol' 'im replacing you with a 19 yr old' always gets to them.
careful bout that one dude.

it's like chris rock said: "You know the reason why your woman is pissed da FUCK OFF?! -cause she wasn't your FIRST CHOICE!"

similar enough.

i taunted my girl saying i found some hot girl just to make her jealous and she hasn't shut the fuck up about it since then (its been since summer). mainly cause she found her on my phone LOL!!

The fact is when a relationship goes bad it can get really bad. I still have regrets over the relationship. I almost posted the link to her blog to prove the point. But frankly it does not matter what happened. My relationship crashed and burned.

This happens to relationships all the time. I just do not want others to loose everything because of a vindictive ex wife, ex husband, ex girl or boyfriend.

Cover your ass regardless of how strong you think your relationship is. The fact is you can never know what someone will do when they are pissed.

Typical woman.
Remember there's more women and more plants though ;)
GL in the future.
