what the fuck!!!!!!!!

I have a question if you follow rule number 1 and tell absolutely no one you are growing how in the HELL does the police find out and kick in your house?

smell, suspicious hydro bill, suspicious stuff in your garbage, suspicious behaviour, over-suspicious neighbour, heat signature, or plain old fucken bad luck

Theres more to it then not telling anyone. Odor is generally an issue, but things like energy bill differences aren't the causes

Sounds like the big bad wolf. Real cops take out the door not the house.

Smell yes. All the rest no. The power companies love huge energy bills because you are paying them more money. All they want is money, why would they bust you? Cops only look in your garbage for suspicious stuff if you are already under investigation. Lol you don't get raided for simply "acting suspicious. Heat signature, myth. This is also only done of you are already under investigation. They also don't raid your hous because you just have plain bad luck.

Look there are lots of variables. Just be cautious and be aware of the risk. Also know your rights.

That's just rule number one, not the only rule. Having it numbered at all tells you there must be more.

I only had 2 400's and they didn't run at the same time,i had filters there was no smell I just put them in flower,there was nothing in the trash I had nothing to throw away other than a couple leaves that fell off here and there,I don't sell so I have no idea why they would be watching me but I know It's not just bad luck and this is really bothering me.

That's not good. Sounds like you might know someone who might know a cop. Just saying. Good luck.

Well you had to have blown it somewhere. I mean it wasn't just on a hunch.

I know it wasn't which is why I'm trying to figure out how they could have known because I didn't
blow anything like I said I never told anyone ,I don't sell,there was no smell or trash,nothing,the only thing I can think of is they saw me go to the hydro shop It's the only one in my area without driving out of town.

Smart meters.

You need to reconsider that statement!
Any digital device using microwave transmissions can track a lot more than most people know about.
Some of the new digital electricity meters can identify increased timer use. Police here do randomly audit power use patterns, not total consumption. Its their latest weapon since the feds outlawed using thermal imaging energy signatures. I'm sure much of this is dependent upon whether you have a public power company or private for profit operator.

There have also been several arrests shortly after buying obvious supplies from Home Depot. It has happened here so many times a local tv station did a short story on it last year.

What is a smart meter,if It's the meter outside the house I have one of the old ones that spin.

And I thank you for your smartass reply,if that's all you got keep it to yourself I don't need your sorry excuse of humor right now.

if your using a digital ballast without sufficient rf protection it could be messing with your neighbours electricals and then its just a case of eliminating who it isnt.

I had magnetic ballasts,but the strange thing is they haven't contacted me yet or arrested me which REALLY has me confused.I don't know what the hell is going on.

Why not start from the beginning, why do you honestly feel that they came to your house? What are the top 3 reasons of how they could know?

Ok,this is why im stumped cause I can see if i told people I told NO ONE,I didn't throw any plant material,soil ,etc. away cause like i said i had nothing to throw away.There was NO smell i made absolutely sure of that bought filters and Bluntpower spray and incense that stuff covers anything.The more I think about it the more i have to say it has to be the grow store I went to a few times and i know people say they don't watch those stores but im telling you i told NO one and no one knew there is no possible way I don't have visitor's so no one could have seen it by accident or anything.

this is interesting.

So you think that they followed you home? what kind of contact was made with them? did they just knock?
