Paranoia will destroy ya.

Know how many times Iv been baked and have had the paranoid urge to rip up my plants and hide under the stairs?

Loads... would I have regretted it? Yes.

Welcome to the club, you'll learn to live with it ;)
Couldnt have said it better, When i lived up in Dub, Im a dub man but moved, But when i lived up there and when i started growing i used to be shitting myself, I could easily say the garda heli flew very low over my house hundreds of times over the years...Paranoia is a killer, dont worry about it, If your growing a couple of plants and they knock on your door then worry but as its been said on here countless times, If your worried about it your in the wrong game...:)

Wel man,it fly,s around my place alot 2, i reckon you would have to be running alot of lights for it 2 look suspicious,maybe im wrong. i couldnt see them reporting every small heat source.
well lads. A couple of weeks ago the rescue helicopter flew really low over my estate..... my stuffs in the attic but it was a sunny warm day. whats the chances they could be using their flir since i heard they tip of the local cops when they detect anything suspicious. I heard they use their thermal gear to detect any gas leaks but it got me paranoid when then circled twice over the estate.....

If they're using FLIR on you, then you're probably already on their radar.

Without someone's life being at risk, FLIR runs are pointlessly expensive and afaik from what Iv heard, random ones arnt done.

So if the eye in the sky has you, it's cos they're following up a tip off or some other reason to suspect you.

Just relax bro, how many plants you growing and what sorta wattage you running again?

i only have a 400w and 2 plants, cops have no reason to suspect me of anything as im a good boy since i gave up the drink, i was fairly paranoid for the first while, but now i dont give a shit, couple hundred euro fine, name in the local paper and all the auld biddys thinking your the biggest skumbag around,i can live with all that, my biggest fear would be loosing all me growing gear as im after spending around 1500 hundred so far, and the plants,

Same here smokeydog the only thing that would bother me is everyone in town thinking your a big time drug user/dealer. not that that would bother me, but i know it would bother my family, thats the only thing i would be concerned about if i was caught with my 1 or 2 plants, as for fines or jail whatever so what, hell i should be so lucky to get a few weeks holiday in a 3 star prison

and as for flir and stuff....... well all the big grows are got (around here) and the still fly over every now and then so my minds made up that there only after heat sig of a certain size like 4 or more 600w for instance so we as small growers are ok ....(i hope)..;)

I'd keep it around 3ml/l for a while now, probably bump it up to 4 when you flip to flower power mode.

If your growing in a cabinet i dont think they can recognise the heat signature, think about it. tumble dryer boiler range etc would look the same.

How are ya lads, this is my lowryder 2 (my first grow) I've had a problem with it for the last week in that the leaves have been really droopy, in the first photo which i took 20 minutes ago you will notice how droopy they are ... Any one have any idea what is causing this? i reckoned in might be badly roootbound (its 19 inches tall in a 7 litre pot) so ive transplanted it into the garden free from any pot. The last three photos i took about 3 weeks ago and i just included them to give ye an idea of how the leaves used to be and the size of the pot .

Any help is appreciated im a complete noob! haha
