That's what I figured, huge operations only. I hear of med growers on here with 99 plant recs. Personally, I would consider that a huge operation.
I'm more talking about cali tho. What do you think the feds would consider a huge operation?
anyone from cali ever get bothered by the feds for your plants?
From words and experiences up north with my farmer buddies, the feds get involved when it becomes an operation more so than a grow. When you start hiring more than 5 trimmers and have people working on your fields throughout the day that isn't yourself... the feds will look into you, and where you're getting rid of your shit, and bust your ass. Personally watched 5 black Tahoes and an all black MD-500 helicopter set up a road block and checkpoint on my friends private road in Mendo, busting a house that had over 300 plants outdoor, and stopping/ arresting every worker that drove up to the farm. Fully strapped DEA agents with M4 rifles and MP5's everywhere, and I was watching the MD-500 hover not more than 100 feet above my friends 80 something plants. My buddie's dad thought they were about to repel down and start taking his shit, but they're too legit to quit. Crazy stuff, but feds rarely fuck with medical patients. Even then they pretty much stopped their dispensary raids.
Don't give them a reason to bust your ass, in other words. DON'T BE GREEDY! 100 plants may seem like a HUGE operation... until you notice all 7 of your neighbors have over 300. Keep a lower number and be careful where/who your weight goes to.
