Pig FLIR, surface temps and my closet

[NavySupra]

This thread has turned into a joke.

If that's how you feel, perhaps you should research elsewhere.

Refusing to "listen" to the advice you've asked for is a sure sign of stupidity. Just like that chick I told not to date that guy and BAM two months later she was pregnant.

What is your total wattage? If it's only 400w then you should be good. If you are venting to the outside it's going to show up on FLIR, plain and simple. The question is what will it look like to the police? If you have it set up like a dryer vent or a hot water heater stack you will probably be ok. If FLIR really bothers you then look into an aircooled hood and check out the Ice Box. It gets kinda pricey because you have to buy a water chiller (that is where the bulk of the cost is). The unit itself is very cheap though. Google it and see what you think. If you can't find it pm me and I will try to find it for you.

not sure what your problem is with it. near all of what navysupra states, well i agree wholehearted. if i knew thje police could and do enter my enighoourhood without warrants or legal means, then first i'd think "hell no i am not growing dope" and secondly, well if they enter without a warrant and search and find your grow, then anything they say and do in court is void of any validity and the case will be thrown headlong down the courtroon, it's illegally gotten evidence.

Personally I keep my grow closet close to me, so at the worst it looks like I have space heater running in my computer room.

Second, you are far to paranoid to start up any form of grow up...

What a ridiculous thing to say, I do what I want

I would highly suggest building your grow area and growing some tomatoes, lettuce, broccoli, etc, until you get a knock at your door. Bring the nice law enforcement officers inside to see your completely lawful indoor garden and they will probably never call you again.

???

If they don't come see you after the first year of growing some food, you're probably safe to grow a couple plants for your own consumption.

Third, flir evidence is only used against you when there is already enough evidence to warrant looking at your closer.

Incorrect.

If you are close to a border and concerned about the flir used for guarding the border, they are looking for human heat signatures crossing the border and those border guards couldn't give two shits about the UFO sized heat signature coming from you house. They might land to buy a half baggy though

This does not apply to me.

So, in conclusion, just grow the damn plants and keep your mouth shut about it, grow only for yourself and a couple close friend and you'll have no problems. Common Sense is key here, if you have a greenhouse full of pot plants and lights for them... you might get caught. Your closet? Not to likely, because in the United States and Canada(*) a warrant is required to search a house.

* = If you are Canadian and have a firearms licence, you could be subject to safety inspections but generally you receive 24hrs of notice and they are only allowed to look in areas that are for firearms storage.

Minus the first sentence this does not apply to me.

not sure what your problem is with it. near all of what navysupra states, well i agree wholehearted. if i knew thje police could and do enter my enighoourhood without warrants or legal means, then first i'd think "hell no i am not growing dope" and secondly, well if they enter without a warrant and search and find your grow, then anything they say and do in court is void of any validity and the case will be thrown headlong down the courtroon, it's illegally gotten evidence.

So I have broken down the post and here it is^ I am not trying to say he is right or wrong just does not apply, this thread has been subject to severe trolling from the word go.

^My only problem with the ice box is that I leave the closet open to exhaust the heat, with the ice box I think you would need all your hot air in a confined space [duct] for it to pass through the ice box, if I get a cooltube or an air cooled hood I will defo go for one, correct me if I'm wrong.

You have to have some sort of aircooled reflector. You just attach the ice box on one end of the reflector and your inline fan on the other. You have it so your fan blows air across the bulb and into the ice box. It's just basically a radiator that circulates cold water which dissipates the heat. If FLIR is a major concern and you can't vent somewhere inside of your apartment you really don't have a whole lot of options. I dump my air from my flowering room into my vegging room. I do not vent to the outside. It's not an ideal setup but it works for me. You may need to play around and see what will work for you.

I just let the heat spread by leaving the closet door and door to the room open, works for me, I will be looking into the ice box, thankyou for your time and the spot on info.

That's basically what I do. I leave my veg room open as much as I possibly can. I use about 1400w total at any given time and I can put out more bud than I need, and I smoke a good amount.

I am going to stay mini but go for different strains all the time..

This is all very new to me :0P

Please do not post trolls.

theres only one troll arond here.....
and i think hes right above me......

I have a grow going in a closet. This closet is against my dining room on one side
and my kitchen on the other. All my husband and I did was install vents on both walls
of the closet so they vent out into my dining room & kitchen. It actually helps heat
my house a bit in these winter months. I have a 400w hps & the room and whole house
stays around 74-75. I don't know if thats an option for you or if you were looking
for an easier way, just thought I would throw it out there.

Also I've seen other threads pretty severely trolled and this is nothing.
I think they were just having fun not trying to troll
I don't think your paranoid, just careful which more ppl need to be.

Order the panda paper from the uk that flir can not see through and buy that thing you put over your light the blocks the heat too.No more problems.

That's not entirely true. If he's venting into an attic space or to the outside he could be picked up with FLIR. The heat has to be dealt with some how. Just covering hot things or room walls doesn't totally deal with the hot air.

Get off my thread prick

FLIR cannot see through anything.

Yea I am the same as you, I have left the whole front of the closet open so as much heat as poss can be exhausted, closing the closet doors is not an option as temps touch 100 when I do so!

As for the trolls lets face it they shouldn't still be with RIU one way or another, no-one asked them to come in here and rape this thread they just couldn't resist. Yawn.

You sir, are a douche. By posting a thread on an open and online community you are, by default, inviting every user of this forum into your discussion if you like it or not. If you can't handle that, go buy a book and leave the rest of us alone.

Look, you didn't tell us you lived in some communist country where there is no such thing as personal freedoms and rights. Just that "it didn't apply to you"

So, if that is really the case, you're screwed if you get caught doing anything so either take the chance or don't, but don't bitch about "trolls" who are providing meaningful information that is relevant to others who read through this thread.

The only troll in this thread so far is you.

If you flower and exhaust heat during daylight and use flouros and cross ventilation for veg you won't be detectable to FLIR .
