Still have some above questions that are unanswered, I'm sure there are many others who would love a clear answer to the questions above (with sources would be nice.)

Another question that I just thought of, if cops get a warrant and knock on your door; if you flush the plants and evidence of any plant being there and all they find is a small grow cabinet set-up (which could be for any type of plant)... what will happen? If its a false warrant, do i get compensated? or is it like "oh ok have a nice day..." Can i get a lawyer for anything?

Also if they get a warrant for a possible growing set-up and they find things like a water pipe, and other things do they still have the right to prosecute for them or do they need another warrant? If so they would need time to get the warrant which means you would have time to get rid of all of it, even though they saw it?

Thanks
