The Law

[anthony6969]

Just wondering what would happen if u got caught with 5/6 plants in Wales/England. Am not worried but my girl askin loads nof questions

As for the laws where you live......I don't worry about them here. I just strive to be as diligent as I can possibly be in my security. This can be a dangerous game we play anthony. You HAVE TO understand that completely before you get growing. The "other side" will lie, cheat, and break all the laws to find you if they even hear of you growing. Do your homework!! I'm not trying to scare you. I just want you to understand that ANY loophole you allow in your security leaves a possibility for you to go to jail. The cops play for KEEPS, so should you. Can you keep your grow a secret from everyone you know? Even those that you think wouldn't tell on you, can be made to do so, if the cops put enough pressure on them. Just be smart man, and you'll do fine. Never EVER tell anyone...no not that guy either....NO ONE!! Good growing, anthony.

Anthony - the way I see it is this...(and each to his own on this stuff, YMMV etc) - if you're growing for percy and you get nicked, it's trouble but not jail. If you're growing to sell, it's big trouble probably jail. Keep it to whatever you need to smoke and should the shit hit the fan it won't be as bad....that's the view I'm taking. Don't let it get out of hand and keep the smells under control....

in my opinion you will def not get jail time

6 plants,its hardly a mass commercial operation

it is clearly a personal grow with 6 plants unless they are the size of these american outdoor bushes

look up ccnewz(uk weed newspaper) they used to have loads of uk articles saying what happened to people geting nicked
it was only big guys going down or stupid people with scales tick list and all sorts
so honestly dude i would not worry

that being said take precautions
dont tell anyone
keep place tidy
no obvious stuff left with rubish
pay bills on time
make sure your carbon is working properly with no smells
and so on
peace

thanx guys thats good to no

If you are unlucky enough to get caught, never deviate from the line 'It was all for my own consumption'. Don't admit you give it to friends either (I'm sure you know this already).

I've got a set of tanitas that I used when I used to trade rocks and fossils (and now I use to weight up piranha powder). I've also got a pile of baggies from previous scores. If the cops came in it might look like I'm a dealer, despite the fact I've never sold a gram in my life. I'm not binning my tanitas!! They're the pucker high accuracy one (gold one) :)

I've no idea but it seems like a pretty balanced mix of the two (North Ams and Euros)...if I'm guessing I'd say 60/40 north american to euro...

For early vegging you'll be fine, but 4-6 weeks in the girls will start to smell. For flowering you absolutely have to I think. Smell is a major giveaway and for the sake of a 50 quid filter it's a no-brainer imho. It's one thing catching a whiff of ganja coming from the window, but it's another to smell it constantly...i.e. one is someone smoking a bliff, the other is someone growing....

good good

lol thanx man think ill have to get one then, that means buildin a grow box and havin the intake out take fans i wa\s just gunna grow in corner of the room and leave the windown open. how tall do the Ak 48's get at harvest approx if vedged for 4 week then flowered

 

[anthony6969]

sorry about this is queton after question everytime a get 1 question answered another pops into my mind, the help is much appreciated, is a ph reader neccisary in a soil grow when fertilizing 1 a week or will it be ok

I was checking out timber prices to build my own box too. You can get from Wickes (seems cheapest, if you're in the UK) a pack of 6 x 2"x1" (34 x 44mm x 2.4m) of planed square edge softwood for £18. Need at least 2 packs to make a 12 sided box, plus a couple of extra ones for light hangings and/or braces. I was in the store, and I know fsck all about wood, but despite it being called soft wood it's very hard - no problem for a grow box/room and will easily support lights etc. Let me know how you get on...am about to do the same...

edit: you might be able to get away with one pack if you're building a small room...they're 2.4m long...

that sounds great, what are u usin for the sides, ply wood, chip board, mdf some of em go soggy when they get wet. The last thing u need is a soogy bit of wood going moldy an reckin ur crop

Plastic...either black/white or some kind of reflective mylar-type, depending on what I can afford at the time....no soggy probs...wipe down etc...

Check out how Mr Green does it...this is fairly standard from what I've read....

[anthony6969]

looks good, i was gunna use wood wrapped in mylar so the odd accidental kick or slice with the scissors while trimmin or whatever wouldnt mean replacing the whole side again, cos if u slice it the light could get through to yor flowin plants an fcuk them up, but ill prob just use mylar now save payin money out for the extra wood. what u think

 

[anthony6969]

does anyone no any good sites to buy cheap but good hps lights from, there was a few on ebey for 80 dollars about 40 quid but they dont ship to uk, and also anyone no how tall approx a ak48 grows to at harvest if i vegged them for 4 weeks , need to no how high am guna build my grow box

I think you hijacked your own thread!! LOL.. Best sources will depend on what country. In the Uk I have no idea. Google is a great tool though, lots of info there.
