Indoor guerrilla grow in abandoned building

so I was wondering if anyone could give me some tips on how to do this without getting caught. This is my first time growing. I already have two plants currently growing in my basement. They are growing kinda slowly they are in a styrofoam cooler with one light inside. They are in small pots with just regular soil from outside vermiculite and some pigeon poop fertilizer from my pigeon coop. I have had them for a little less than a month and they are only 5 inches tall and just beginning to branch out into individual leaves. The problem is however that I have to move them out of my house soon because I don't want my parents to find them. I live in an urban area so there is no woods to plant in and it is winter. There is a restaurant that went out of business this summer and I don't think anyone has been using it since. I have already got inside by climbing through a hatch from the roof. One day I was up there and one of my friends was hesitating about climbing to the roof and a cop drove by and saw him on the lower level of the roof they after we left we saw the cop come back and look in the alley way we used to get up and they must have seen chairs and things piled up for us to get on the roof. Keep in mind I am much steal their than this friend and don't need to pile things up to get on the roof and I no longer bring him. So anyway after two weeks I figured the cops probably have forgotten about it and stopped watching it and as long as I'm not obvious I won't get caught. So I went down the hatch from the roof into the restaurant. It was 1 am and I plugged in the light and it worked and I set up a spot and was planning to go back for the plants but as I climbed back down from the roof I saw a car in the parking lot across the street. I thought it was a cop watching me but it turns out it was just a taxi. I didn't go back that night because the taxi didn't leave and it snowed two feet later that night and has not yet melted so I haven't been back since so that I don't leave tracks. But now the light has been set up on in the restaurant for the past two and a half weeks and the hatch to the roof has been open the whole time.so some snow has prob built up inside the restaurant. I plan to go back and try again once the snow melts. I still see cops around there and sometimes feel like they are watching me because they seem to show up every time I go near the place but it's prob just me. And I've gone back a few times recently and not seen any. One time a few days ago a cop saw me in the parking lot across the street and went and started flashing his light in the back area of the lot where there is a hole in the fence to the train tracks and kids sometimes go so I am pretty sure they don't know I'm going into the resurant. I am planning to keep the plants at my house as long as possible and keep watching over the spot to see how often cops are there before I determine its safe for the plants or not. I also plan to explore the building more wile having a friend on lookout outside for cops so he can warn me when to get out. I plan to find a secluded hard to find spot in the restaurant that I can lock and hide the plants in case anyone does come in. There is also a little tiny courtyard type thing with a door to the kitchen that is only accessible by climbing over a small level of roof but is much easier than climbing over the whole restaurant and going down the hatch. I will start using this as a quicker and less dangerous entrance that is still safe because no one will know it is there without climbing the roof. I know this sounds crazy and dangerous with all the cops but it is my only option other than killing the plants. I don't have any other spots. Can anyone give me some tips on how to pull this off without getting caught.

Interesting read for sure.... but I would strongly encourage you to talk to your parents, after all, at your age you should be able to have those kind of discussions. As for going into someone elses building, I can tell you if it were mine, I would be looking really hard for a new tenant since it costs money to leave a space like that vacant. And unless the owner is really wealthy and dumb, they will have people parading through there trying to lease that space.

Power in an abandoned building isn't magical and free. Someone is paying for that power and when they notice the usage is going up they'll check it out. Pot also takes a while to grow and the business may be purchased/demo'd or something by the time you get to a point where you can harvest. Even if the property doesn't switch owners, the current owners may still attempt to sell, and if anyone is interested the realtor will let them in and they'll all look around.

Outdoor gorilla grows are successful because after a few weeks the MJ can find food and water on it's own and requires minimal matinence. An indoor gorilla operation would require a lot more maintenance which increases your likelihood of getting caught.

There's just so many ways this is not a good idea.

I'll say why it's a bad idea
1, high traffic area, cops, kids going through the fence. Even if was condemned bad spot, someone is going to smell it at some point.
2, it's winter time, homeless get cold, they'll find a way in and your stash is now their's.
3, breaking and entering, felony, think of the image you're going to represent about the rest of us growers.
4, as federson said, power isn't free someone's going to wonder why the bill is going up on an empty building.
5, landlord might show the property while you're there
6, light, someone passing by could see and grow curious.

I'll help you out, but first we're gonna need some pics of the building inside and out. Set the plants in front of the biggest window there is for natural light. Is the water still on? If not you're gonna have to run a garden hose from the nearest neighbors house, be careful not to kink the hose. Look for a fryolator, use those to plant in it'll keep the roots warm and the buds will taste like French fries. Good luck and don't forget the pics.

This is one of the funniest things I have ever read in my life. You're intelligent enough to hatch such a plan. You should be smart enough to stay out of that restaurant. C'mon man. I'm palm to face right now.
