I would find out the laws in your state and get rid of however many plants that you need to so that it will only be a misdemeanor charge if you do happen to get busted. Get rid of scales, so they can't charge you with trafficking too. Then I would take my chances because that is basically how I do it. Although I'm just growing for personal smoke, I have been in serious trouble for trafficking weed and got a felony conviction for it 14 years ago. I'm not on any probation or anything anymore, but if I do get busted it will only be a slap on the wrist without any jail time involved. Try to be smart about it and protect your ass from getting a felony conviction because it will change your life and close alot of doors forever on you. Good Luck!

There must be a reason they suspect. Is the blind/ shutters always down on that room? Any light leaking outside? Fan noisy ? If u answer 'no' to these then the rest is down to ur acting skills now !!! Good luck and try to keep calm. Panicking never helped anyone. Head high, shoulder back, off u go !!
In basement, no light leaks at all and no smell. Noise from fan is loud....but I doubt that can equate to what I'm doing. I can barely hear the hum when its late night and Im in my bed. So during awake hours there is other noise too. Can't imagine how she/he knows.........that is what drives me nuts more then anything.

Good thinking. I'll be removing all scales and shit and trying to clean up tonight since I won't be sleeping.

What was the conversation 2 min before she made these accusations? do you have other run ins with her, good or bad?

Did she say anything loud enough to be herd by others?

I use a dimmer switch to make the vent fan quieter when lights are off. My last fan was so noisy it could wake the dead, let alone the neighbours.

I remember a story abt a grow that got busted coz of fan noise. The old lady next door had a policeman for a son!! They knew from the times they could hear it !!

I just googled cultivation and trafficking marijuana laws in Kentucky when I was looking into mine. I just looked through a few links, and I found it fairly easy. Or you can just call a lawyer and ask them straight up what the particulars are in your state and maybe even county. I can have up to 4 plants and its only a misdemeanor in Kentucky and anything over 4 is a Class D felony. These laws change to if you have been convicted of cultivation before and get caught a 2nd time even if its only a 1st offense misdemeanor charge you can get a felony charge since it's your 2nd time being charged with the same crime. I don't know if that makes any sense to anyone or not because its kind of hard to explain.

How do you suppose I move 5 week old plants that are about 3 feet high?????? And to where? I don't know anyone else that can take them over....?

Sucks
closet, attic.. just so if they know where they are, and if they do call the cops and tell them "i suspect my neighbors are growing something in the basement" if the cops were to go in and look they would see nothing and think shes a dumb bitch.

and that makes perfect sense. its like that for any crime. if its your first offence the sentence is always lighter then what it would be if its your second or tenth.

She was flipping out cause a random dude ran thru my yard into hers....and yes she was loud about it, yelling and other peeps were outside. Thats also a concern. She said something to the effect "Did they come outta your house cause my son told me he saw you growing weed in the basement" yeah I think she said he "saw me" which again I haven't a clue how? They put holes in the walls and look thru or something?

I thought about that dimmer when lights are out, might have to get one. Does the carbon filter still work ok with lowered cfm's??

That does make sense! I don't have any priors. However on the NORML site I didn't see anything about cultivation under my state. I'll google that shit now.

Well that would mean I'd allow them into my house/basement. And nope, ain't happening. They gotta come in with a warrant and battering ram (which of course is my fear cause they'd surely shoot and kill my do)

Correct so stick to ur guns - not literally!! They can't come in so don't let them. This is what I'd do. If carbon filter gets damp at 70% RH, it will be too damp to work so u need a small quiet desk fan to keep moving the air. Another option is to build an acoustic box to put the fan in. I have 3 different fans. 2 x TT and one ruck fan. The ruck is really noisy so not in use, the large TT was buzzing at night (I had to sleep with ear-plugs!! ) so i've swapped to the smaller TT plastic vent fan (with dimmer) and use the AC more which is a normal sound! plus everyone has them here.

Is ur fan too powerful for the size of the room or the current weather ? Maybe u should look into this.

This is what I'm working with now...

(1) Valueline 6” Inline fan 435 CFM
(1) 6" Australian Virgin Carbon Filter 530 CFM

So I don't really know if that is too much fan for my 5x5 tent. I got the package deal so I assume that the seller knows they shit, no?

Go visit her with a few flowers, and say hey I thought you may want to try it out , it's real good shit... I am a good person, don't worry about criminal activities, I just grow a few plants for myself and have nothing to worry about but hey, I still don't want the cops to find out so I can hook you up with a few flowers each time I harvest, as long as you dont tell your son!

Muwahahahaha I had a similar idea. After I clean the shit outta the house and have but a few g's and a bong laying around......I wanna go ask her. Cause it has been KILLING me as to how her son "saw" me doing this.

I wanna be like "Just so you know I wasn't doing anything of the sort, however I do smoke to control my adhd, perhaps you smelled that?"

Then right before I leave.....turn to her and hand her a gift card to Outback Steak House or something and say "Thanks for keeping me Free" and wink at her! :)

So are you in an apartment, or a house? Cuz you can just bury plant materials in the yard...That is what I do with any trimmings I am not going to make into hash...Then again I don't have to worry about throwing stuff away...in winter I stick it all in the woodstove...What is it that you can't throw out with the normal trash?
