Just be sure you pay your electric bill on time everytime and you can use all the electricity your heart desires.

utility companies have more to worry about than a small spike in your electric, that can be caused by anything not just growing

the last time i looked into the rules for landlords and tennants is you need 24hrs notice before your landlord can come to your apt
i was 15 years old my grandfather rented a trailer to a woman and her kid , i was all over that place ,i even found her big rubber cock ..dont tell me about rules ,they are broken all the time :hump:

First, a couple points. Your landlord must give you 24 hours notice before he will enter your apartment. That is plenty of time to hide a small grow. About the power bill.. our bill was about 50 bucks a month before the 400W HPS. A full month of veg caused the bill to raise 25 dollars, or 75$ now. That is not enough to raise suspicions. One question though, do YOU pay your bill or does your landlord? If your landlord does then find another spot cause it is not a good idea to grow under someone elses power.

hey redwolf u make a good point.
now will the fact that im in a big city help the situation since it not a private utility company?

Dont worry man, my computer (350 watt PS) uses only 50 less watts than your light does. Its not gonna cause a massive spike in your bill.
