[Turbo storm]

So let me guess...the deputys and sherriff will:
1. cut all the weed down,
2. throw it in a big pile,
3. light it on fire,
4. stand around and watch it burn,
5. go to Waffle House for a huge breakfast that is scattered, smothered, covered, chunked, diced, topped, and capped.

Isn't this the S.O.P.?

Not that I'm up on the street value of weed, but???

Authorities say growers could cultivate a new crop of up to 1,000 pounds marijuana every three months, with each pound worth several thousand dollars.

LOL Nevermind, I thought that said 1,000 was worth several thousand, not that 1 lbs was worth several.

<--Starting a pot farm.

For real, how do you explain that your electric bill is $1500 a month and there's only ever 1 car/truck in the parking lot. LOL

If it were an actual green house then there was probably no suspicion.

[blacksnow]

Saw this on the news....says was over 200k worth of equipment...

heres how i found out about that....
i come home to find a ton of cops around the house leaving..
apparently, the servers/switches/etc we had running in the house (for dialup hosting of others) were using the same amoutn of power that potheads use when they grow pot with lamps inside.

so they came busting in to search the house.. only to find my roomate who runs the stuff watching TV... :lol:

Hopefully with a warrant...

What's a "warrant"? It's been a few years... hmm... eight or so since I heard of one of those :chin:

:whistle:

[MrDude_1]

Hopefully with a warrant...

oh yea, they have a warrant.

you know, the evidence needed to get one of those is minimal now days.... this was in 01.... and all they needed was the flag from the electric company, and to see the vette out front, registered to an 19yr old.

[fasterthanyours]

MrDude 1, funny you say that. I'm a big Salt Water Aquarium nut and for a while there in my old house, in crackville in West Ashley I had my back room full of 400 Metal Halida Bulbs. The same ones the potheads use to grow plants. I was always afraid the door would get busted in. My Electric bill was crazy high when I was doing that.

I have heard stories of others around the country that grow corals in back rooms or basements getting the door kicked in on them. And then the cops go blazing through the house looking for pot and grow lamps and all the find is like 500+ Gallons of fish tanks LMAO

You'd think they'd invest in some recon on these raids.
