5 years ago I was busted in the UK with 3 plants. My brother let the police in as they were looking for me for assault charge and followed their noses to the plants.

Anyway, I got off with a fine. I told them I was growing as an experiment as the seed packets said male and I had no intention of growing to get buds, all for personal research.

They took the bait.

But this time I am setting up a bigger setup. Possibly up to 30 plants in the next 6 months. If I was caught again would it be an instant sentence due to my recent charge?

I'm careful nowerdays. Live on my own, don't speak to anyone about it, so there is little chance I'd be caught. But if I was, should I expect a harsh sentence?

30 plants is a lot, so youd be counted as a factory to sell, basically, theyd hammer you as a dealer.
would the sentence be harsh, well, minimum time for a dealer is 12 years...so, id say yes they would hammer you.
