Hi there, newbie to the site here, I've been doing a lot of research on now to grow indoors however I'm worried that my excessive "googling" may attract the wrong attention from law enforcement, not that growing tomatoes is illegal ;). does anyone have any insight on this or am I just worrying for no reason?

if your legally allowed (state level), then grow within your allowed plant count and useable medicine limits. if your growing illegally, then that's all on you. just be prepared for the bad (getting busted), have a STRONG odor removal products, and DONT TELL ANYONE you grow!!!!

Yea Bro, only way you are getting busted is one of two reasons. Smell, or running your mouth.

They would have to spend some serious money to track all that think about how many people in the us alone google cannabis. Hell my grandma doesn't even smoke and she even looks up cannabis just to see what it's doin for people.

Little paranoia setting in, happens to all of us at some point. Next will be helicopters and cars parked down the street.

I installed a VPN (Hotspot Shield) to my computers and other electronic devices. Keeps prying eyes from finding you from your Internet connection.

Just some extra peace of mind and it's free software. http://www.hotspotshield.com/

Yeah, I have the pro version. But the banners are small and just at the top for freebie. Nothing is free I guess.

Or you have a fire. Or you dispose of your trash improperly. or you don't cover your window well enough. or you steal power. or you start selling. or another incident leads 5-0 into your house. Lots of variables that one should be mindful of.

For sure kenetic! It could become legal tomorrow and I would still practice all the above rules! It's just good business I guess you could call it.

thanks for all your replies, puts my mind at ease. I guess a little paranoia is okay lol .. thanks again.
Now aint ya glad you don`t have to Google anymore, you found the right place to learn. Here you`ll find all you need and if you weed out the BS`ers, and braggers, you`ll quickly see who's who. There`s nothing to buy and Rollie aint sell`n nut`n. (Hopefully T-shirts someday) We`re all in the limelight so trust the one`s that are hard on you for ignorance and recognize success because ....Living in a fish-eye lens .... caught in the camera`s eye...we have no heart to lie....we can`t pretend a stranger is...a long awaited friend ... (Sorry, I was just reading the answer with a song thread, and they suck at it !i )

Aw man. That whole, "Another incident lead 5-0 into your house".......that's what you call unavoidable. Seen an episoide of cops where they were tracking some guys with a K9 and the dog leaves the people trail to go off on the marijuana smell trail.You know what happens next. damn Ain't that a bitch.

That's bad luck. Kinetic is right. There are a lot of mistakes a grower can make to attract unwanted attention.

A little paranoia keeps you on your toes. I suggest the OP read up on security and best practices for stealth grows.

I have found that a little education goes a long way to calming the fears.

Oh fo sho man. A little paranoia keeps you alert and not complacent. Just gotta walk that line with it.
