Um, YEAH. lololol. Get your shit outta the neighborhood!
And wait until LEO is on vacation or otherwise occupied before doing it, too!

[atl01]

well see, its just not that easy I have lived here for over a year and sunddenly I have to stop doing what I love. I have all bases covered and it
a a small grow. moving is just not an option. why me?

[TurnyBright]

why me?

If the policeman next door knew he'd moved next to a cultivator of drugs, he would probably ask the same thing.

However, if it were me in the situation I would test the waters before totally giving up. As in, I would triple my security and paranoia, and never ever ever smoke weed in my house.

That's not my advice, it's just what I would do. My advice is to cut that shit out right away.

[atl01]

cut what out the growing or the smoking? I usuallysmoke in the garage , and they live down the hill and across the st. do u think he can smell it? Ive walked out to my car several times after tokin in the garage and can't smell nothing. but I do need to choose one or the other. because if they did smell it then one thing could led to another.

I would not stop my grow if I were you. Then again, I'm not you... I only grow outdoors because in my state the cops can take my house if they catch me growing and it isn't worth the risk. Plus they are kicking in the wrong door all the time in my city because people put fake addresses on probation paperwork and the cops actually get bad warrants.

Anyway, back to you... If I were you I would just make my grow extra stealth. From down the street I bet he couldn't smell it anyway. My upstairs neighbor (in a condo) grows (I think) and I can only smell it when I'm directly in front of my building near his air vent. If I walk 30 feet I can't smell a thing. But nonetheless I would go stealth by totally sealing my grow room and using multiple carbon filters on all the exhaust so as to greatly reduce the smell. I would also run another carbon filter just in the room itself. It would be time consuming and cost a few bucks, but that is what I would do. Once you had everything installed, it would be cheap to maintain. And the fans don't cost much to run.

As far as smoking, if you set up your grow room right you could always smoke in there. But if I were you I'd just keep burning in the garage. Again, if he were down the street he wouldn't smell a damn thing, most likely. You could throw a carbon filter in there if you wanted, too.

Yeah id be really freaked! Not sure if it would be enough for ME to shut down but yeah i would certainly give it some thought. Since your worried about the smell, do you have the proper filters put in to your exhaust system? If not, I would get them TODAY or shut down tonight!

[atl01]

the room is pretty much in order carbon filter, passive intake cooltube with a 400 hps. I've never had more than 2 ladies at a time but my system can hold 4. its not pepretual, just start to finish. my room is on the side facing his house. do u think flir can pick up my 400 watter. I vent into the attic. there house is probably 35 40 yards from mine down hill. right now the room is empty just have the lights on timer still so they kick on.

I doubt that you even have to worry about FLIR being used, and even so, one point of heat isn't proof of a grow op. Especially not the heat signature put out by a 400w. I would say do your thing, just be careful. And it always helps to be a bit jovial with new neighbors to preempt any premature suspicions or grudges.

Good luck, man.

[yeyo45]

Yes, keep the carbon running, my neighbor is a LEO and 20 feet away, I saw him sniffing the air one day as I was in the garage doing my thing, and I got so parranoid that I quit smoking and began only Vaporizing... you can hardly smell it!!
Then I went over stoned as could be and made friends with him! I now cut his lawn and he trades me pirated movies he steals from the internet!! (he's a hacker on the side it turns out) hahaha!
Turned out to be kinda cool....
Still would throw me under the bus if he found out I was a burner probably..
But think Vape! and you will not be so stinky... burning hydrocarbons, ya can't miss 'em if you don't smoke.
PEACE
