It's not about reluctance. It's about prudence. I personally refrain from assisting those that attempt to grow in inappropriate situations. Those that think they can pull-off a small grow in places like up in their parents attic, school dorms, planters in the mall, apartments, (with managers or maintenance personel
having implied authorization to inspect premises) behind the jail...these folks generally get themselves busted, and I don't advocate anyone breaking the law.
If you are attempting to grow at school, chances are you don't have a med card for growing, and would be unable to properly conceal your illegal grow. Even if you did have a card, school would likely call the authorities.

It's bad juju growing stolen weed. Not to difficult to get the process going, with known seeds of quality lineage, without committing larceny.
