Well done on both counts.
Hope you're not a politician in the making.

Alright lads, 64 days in 12/12 today. The 2 Northern Lights in the first pic are going to be another 2 or 3 weeks I'd say. The Laughing Buddha's in the second pic mabe 5 or 6.
Have a veg cabinet made up so gonna start a few beans next week. Bought 3 of those 1L Air Pots as well as they seem to get good reviews. Probably invest in a few more when upcanning.

Often wondered do the Garda have the IR detectors

yes top notch stuff. Their looking for venting and hot spots.

Are the power companies obliged by law to report houses that look "hot"?

dont think they have helis here, no reward systems like other countrys.

also if anyones looking for those little greenhouses = argos sale

I,m interested in this '' spy in the sky '' debate, as I said before here, Ive been up there with the power company here in Scotland, with the camera, not looking for weed grows but overheating power connections on power lines, but purely as a matter of interest, here is what the helicopter camera can see if they do come across a grow room, this pic was taken in East Birmingham when they were grow room hunting, the perp had over 10,000 watts of lights in his attic, no way could they detect say a 600w in the same circumstances. see how the house stands out

If that's 10,000 watts a 600w would hardly show up.That guy must have been bypassing the meter inorder to suck that much juice.

 

[Bilbo Baggins]

yep, thats what they do, approach a greedy landlord who has a house to rent, give him say £5000 along with the words, '' Don't expect to see you around here for the next six months mate '' they then bypass the meter and turn every square inch of the house into an intensive grow. Sometimes they even pay off the neighbours with a couple of grand to ignore any strange smells---most accept. These are the people the helicopters are after, I assure you, not some otherwise law abiding normal guy with half a dozen plants under a light.

 

[fr3d12]

I suppose it doesn't make sense to spends thousands chasing a guy with a couple of plants who probably will only get a caution and a fine.

 

[Jay_normous]

I know one thing for sure is that I'm trying to grow just enlighten to keep myself going and that I don't have to buy street weed off the proper criminals

 

[ae86 grower]

on the avaerge day it wouldn`t even cross my mind as with a 600w its hot but not "that" hot, so they would see heat venting and it could be detected by a sharp eyed so and so in there.... not that it would make the walls show up but would show heat escapeing from what had no heat escapeing...

shows exactly what they see here and gives some of there reasoning behind the raid....

have alook in the uk growers forum on icmag, some great threads in there about ir. worth remembering that a poster on here was raided for venting 600 out a window.

give him say £5000 along with the words, '' Don't expect to see you around here for the next six months mate ''

why waste 5000?

best i read =

hi sir i see you have a house to rent

were looking for houses for out visa students

That's a shame man, sometime you roll the dice and lose though :/ Looking forward to seeing the critical+. it's been on the radar for a while.

 

[iamaaror]

just snapped some new pics of the shackzilla, I believe today is day 7 12/12, so let's just roll with that She is stretching majorly now, still not eating a lot, keeping ppm's at about 680 and Ph is usually between 5.6 and 6.1PH. Lots of heads forming now, starting to get close to crowing up. No signs of any hairs yet although it should be any day soon. She's really staring to drink now, close to 5 litres a day now, choo choo still 10 weeks left to plough through.

 

[Bilbo Baggins]

Fantastic Iamaaror, not a yellowing leaf in site, would like to see this flower.

 

[fr3d12]
