helicopters

hey , i wanted to ask this question, i want to start a good outdoor grow this coming april, i wanted to know could cop helicopters detect the plants outside or do just detedct heat from indoor growing? i've had just single plants, but this year i want to gorw i least 4 so any info ? i dont wanna get scopd out u know ?

choppers will never notice 4 plants. grow on.

A helicopter flying over head couldn't necessarily visibly see your crops however police can use infrared cameras and other equipment that can detect cannabis by measuring the heat and reflective signature of the vegetation below. Marijuana has a higher reflectivity at certain wavelengths and would standout if its growing among things with lower reflectivity of these particular wavelengths. Will they be able to snipe out four plants? I don't know. What are the chances they would even do this in your area? Probably not high. I also plan on growing outdoors and have researched the subject because like many people, time behind bars is not something that excites me. I don't think it is a huge problem but I'm replying just so you know we're not invincible

how high up is this helicopter. i live in a part of town where the copter chases people. when they catch them the copter circles. they are LOW i can see the guy sitting there looking out. marijuana has a VERy distinct footprint. very green, very round, very bushy. you ever here of CAMP. they use copters. now mind you these are BIG crops but i think 4 plants together in a backyard are going to be VERY visible to a law enforcement helicopter. there are variables to this answer though. where exactly would these 4 plants be? is there nearby fiolage? what is surrounding the 4 plants? is this a casual fly-by or are they search for pot? ever use google earth. i can see my garden from space. well last years anyway. just be careful and have fun.

yup like , about 4 blocks away there is the main police station where on a hill. where helicopters take off and land and i keep them by anothere differrnt kind of plant that the leaves actually look like cannabis, on a wooden box ive been doing it for a couple years so i think i might be able to play the grow

hi in a way your lucky cos you live in a hot place so you get the choice if you wanna grow outside,the downside is choppers flying by all the time,the last time a police chopper flow over my house was about 4 years ago cos they only have one and searching for plants aint really their thing,mind you they dont have too cos its too dam cold here to grow outside anyway........good luck

if they are small keep them bunched close and cover the soil in the pot it stands out like a big black dot. use natural colored pots. try to get them to blend in as much as possible.

if they are large try to scatter them. do not put them in rows or squares. once again make it look natural.

when you are done go up on the roof and look down. you'd be surprised at how it actually looks.


how do i know all this? because man, i'm a bird. i'm fuckin' flyin'...............................

Shit, I could'nt grow outside here EVER! I live directly across the street from a Middle School and theres a helicopter everyweek that does practice landings over there... Those fuckers are probably about 30 over my house atleast once a week!

Heres an interesting tip. Cut off all but the center spade of each leaf over time and itll look like a normal bush

im gonna do all thesse things hope i get safe, also my cuzin's neighbors house alram went off accidently, so cops came and saw him smoking and with two of shi plsnt about ready to harvest, he said what really got hijm in trobule was that they found lil baggies in his house he some time

In all reality you are not going to get caught because in general drug detection helicopters are looking for large grows exceeding 18 plants (18 plants is the maximum number recommended by the wonderful state of CA) so your group of four isnt exactly on their priority list unless you live out of CA. When it comes to helicopters finding your plants only drug detection helicopters are outfitted with the equipment to scan for marijuana and there arent a lot of drug detection copters because they are expensive. Lastly i dont think four marijuana plants are that noticable from several hundred feet up in the air unless you have a group of 15 foot sativa plants but youre going the indica route which generally is a much smaller plant. Grow on.

I'm sticking my hands in as well. copters fly over my house on the daily, probobly more than that, along with many many many many many planes and other crap. all types, shapes, and sizes, no idea what any of them are. my location is very difficult to spot, don't care much if the crop dies, as it's just test seelings i decided not to waste. however, i have found many small 4-5 plants grows, in the woods and etc, never found by any copters.. and with all that activity, i think you will be ok...

plant near evergreens they produce much the same reading on a heat scanner.

do they sell seeds for this ? either way if any cops come ill just have to trick em with the old marijuana for alcohol use, I have like three bottles of them in my house that will help me to

thanks : )

Just space them out. I have that damn chopper overhead here every season and every time I'm freaking out and pissing my pants I grow mine along with alot of brush that keeps them covered, I keep them spaced out and always tie them down if they get too tall. I usually end up growing about fifteen and harvesting atleast ten ladies and never have any trouble. Just make sure that you don't wear a groove in your path so they can't see that and make sure that the dirt does not look fresh. Keep things undercover and never tell a soul! That is always the biggest downfall,it's not the cops or the choppers or the nosy neighbors...it's the loose lips and the pissed off ex friends or ex girlfriends and boyfriends..I know it's hard..trust me! But in the end you can tell them and share with them and be safe! Just don't let them know where the stash is!
