Massachusetts rippers

Canada you can't do anything. So you just beat their ass with a wooden bat and teach them a lesson. Take a picture of them or there IDs and if your crop gets ripped after that then you know where you are going. Legalization here has created the "Wild West" or as I call it the "Crazy North". I've heard of people beating and tying up Rippers and dropping them off in the middle of nowhere. Good old Canadian karma... PS Not all Canadians are nice haha

So you'd get killed to save on court costs? lol
No but I own my home and other tenements . In Massachusetts if I get it wrong, I could get sued for everything I got. Including assault, assault with a deadly weapon, discharging firearm in a residential neighborhood, manslaughter, murder. The list is endless of what you could get in trouble for. Then you’ll be in court for both criminal and civil proceedings. Dishing out crazy legal fees for multiple attorneys, possibly go bankrupt. All for some plants. Definitely not worth it.

That's why I left Jersey lol, a criminal could trip and fall breaking in and sue you.

It’s that time of year, harvests will be ready to go in the next 4-8 weeks. Now that we’re a legal state they’ll be a lot of teenagers and bums looking to grab someone’s grow out of there yard. It’s not like it was before when someone might stumble upon your guerilla grow. The majority of people know that it’s legal and people will be taking advantage of throwing a plant or 12 into there backyard. Before we had to be worried about law enforcement. Now we have to be worried about everyone, from nosey neighbors, to landscapers or other people doing work around the neighborhood. Even people just going for a stroll that catch a whiff of goodness and then get curious about where it came from. Just be diligent, myself I’ve hooked up sensor chimes that I got off Amazon. Anyone who walks near my plants will set off a loud chime in my house. What other methods do people in Mass use to detour rippers and thief’s?????
I keep mine in large buckets situated on wheel barrows so that I may roll them into a sunny spot in my yard, remove them into the locked garage in case of a frost (which we just we just had in western Mass) or to initiate light deprivation...a little laborious, but it builds character and I can sleep at night knowing my girls are secure !!

The WYZE cameras are really, really good if you can get power to your grow. They're cheap and give you a free cloud storage, an app, and the ability to alert your phone and speak through the app, through the camera to who ever is in or near your grow. They're very sensitive and can be trained and can see at night.

I have one on the front of my house and regularly thank the mail man when he drops the mail off in the afternoon.
Whats a camera going to do while that little fucker is stealing your trees?

I do the security for a couple grows and have found Ring is the way to go if you have WiFi. Instant alerts, live view, audio and alarm options. No cellular monthly fee and works even when your out of town. Get the ring chime pro to alert you while sleeping, it also boosts your WiFi signal... it’s called the stick up cam, comes with rechargeable battery. Excellent combo, lot of trial and error. They offer lots of products. We also installed solar panel motion detector lights. System is amazing and completely effective.

Just don't get them from your local police department because they're able to watch whatever your Ring does. Seriously.

This is true if you link to the Neighborhood App, but not of you link it to your WiFi. Then it has the security and protocols of your network. Not public domain.

I love that app, I see all the dumb shit going on in my neighborhood. Dumb kids robbing stuff out of unlocked cars.
