But your not like 90% of the population then. Most people believe that these people they have known for 10+ years would never rat on them if they were in a pickle.

They find out the hard way, they're dead wrong. The first 5 rules of growing pot are Do not tell a single soul. No where does it say "Except people you have known for 10 years", or "Except for your girlfriend".

To everyone:
Think about it for a moment. Does anyone know you grow? If so, do they know the location? If your answer is yes to either of those. (NO BUTS ALLOWED) Then you broke the first 5 rules. Your chance of getting busted has increased literally over one thousand percent.
If anyone knew about my grow, even my own brother who is very close with me, I would tear down my grow that moment, and setup shop elsewhere.


Something like 95% of all grows are busted because they were ratted out by a friend or an ex-girlfriend. 78% of those busts were deals made by the rat for a reduced sentence on his own charges.
What happens is, You show your buddy your grow, months down the road he gets popped for possession or dealing. Cops make a deal, they always want the next highest in the food chain. "Oh you know someone that grows? Here is what we can do for you..."

Girlfriend gets pissed at you? Breaks up with you? Bad argument? "THAT FUCKER IS GROWING POT!!!"


Tell no one. Not even yourself. :P
