Garage is 100 plus yards away from anyones house, about 30 yards away from mine. Just because it wasn't completely to code doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't safe. Either way I have learned a life lesson. Gotta roll with the punches

And yes trust me when I tell you, I'm not rich, at all! But trust me when I tell you I am happy! (Just not happy with power company?)

I couldn't give a fuck what the power company thinks or asks. I had to strip wires to everything to get them to inspect and approve newly installed few outlets and couple of shop lights to ensure I don't lose power to my house. I'm still waiting to hear back from the fuckers, as far as I know...

Entitled to your own opinion just as every dipshit is, it was a communal garden tho although I designed and ran day to day operations it was not mine outright, I had lots of help. I have accepted donatons to cover expenses (initial and ongoing) but I drive a 93 subaru, have pretty much every...

One thing I do feel confident about is that the sheriff dept almost certainly doesn't give 2 shits. They are either worried about real problem drugs (meth, herion, and of course dumb shit drunk people do) and revenue violations like DUIs

Certainly a life lesson but like I had just said things could be much worse, at least I still have a fat bowl sitting here in front of me. I got my beautiful woman, my awesome dogs, and my freedom. I'm still gonna sleep good tonight even being quite a bit in debt. I'm trying to make lemonade out...

I calculated and built what I thought was about the most amperage that I could definitely SAFELY draw. Never tripped a single circuit breaker. Had an electrician give me an estimate to get up to code and he told me that growers in the state have been responsible for blowing quite a few...

One of the sadder days in recent memory. Honestly if I was a bachelor I'd prob feel/have acted differently but can't do the thought of risking someone elses freedom. Just a lot of work time and money involved. One thing to say, it could be worse!

So update, went to power company today because they said I had to file for a permit before I could schedule an inspection. Went in to apply for the permit, long story short they said they needed to contact the county (ie) sheriff dept to verify what I was doing was legal. First time I've...

I have no excuses, I wanted to be under the radar. Used to be with another electric Co, averaged around 800 a month and never heard anything. Wired by same dude ran without any issues for almost 5 years. Might feel a little less safe if both weren't in detached unoccupied garages. Yes I have...

Or 15 ovens

Hind sight I should have had inspected and installed about 15 clothes dryer outlets, that woulda thrown them off the trail

And it is a smaller community so maybe that is partly it. I think they might have required a plan and number of outlets with the permitting so maybe they wouldn't have approved that many outlets/potential usage. I was not involved with any of the permitting so I don't know 4 sure. I'm calling...

Yeah new 200 amp panel dedicated just to this garage, which was inspected and approved but it only had 3 15 amp breakers at the time of inspection. My house is on a separate 200

Cheap power in the northwest, good old hydroelectricity. Honestly I'm not exactly sure of my exact kw/h price or exact usage has been, I pretty much just look at dollar amount. I don't have my bill in front of me but I've heard we have some of the cheapest power in the country around here. I've...

And sorry I meant baby's and mom's don't like more than 10 or so hours of dark

And honda generator is for country living, many power outs and baby plants and mom's don't like anything more than about 14 or so hours of darkness. It's not a huge generator but when u got no juice it can scrape vegging plants by. I just let flowering stay dark for as long as power is out, they...

I did do electric upgrade after final inspection post build without permits. It was new construction almost a year ago when I upgraded from 200 to 320 amp main service. That was all done legit with permits, but soon there after I upgraded inside garage without permits. Went from about 6 outlets...

With a money grab you'd think they'd want the 1000-1200 a month instead of a few hundred buck worth of permits

Thanks Lamont for summary of new WAC laws. I met with my lawyer a little while ago to go over all changes to current MMJ laws, but I appreciate you making sure I'm aware. Hoping to hear back from electrician soon, I'm needing this all to happen in a week but I'm sceptical I can get it all done...
