Alright heres the scoop. I found out my land lord or someone that works for him came in two grab something from all of the rooms in the building on monday. I did not know this untill today and was wondering if i should move my plants or are they ok. I am not sure what to do but am freaking out. The plants are only 15 days in, but now i feel like i may be being watched need opinions
 
Better to be safe than sorry, get shot of them as soon as you can.

If they're only fifteen days from seed maybe you could move them to somewhere else for a while until you feel safe again?

And is your landlord allowed to come in your flat when your not there?, 'cos that don't seem right to me, it's certainly not legal in the UK.
:peace:
 
If you're in the US, it is not only their right, but their obligation to check on their apartments. Most people would not recognize a cannabis plant at 15 days from seed. Have you considered using a stealth cabinet?

sure, after giving proper notice to the tenant. they can't just come in at any time though. they need the renters permission.

Not if the landlord is obeying laws protecting his rights as well as the renters rights,each state/county has different regulations,my county demands that i give written notice of an inspection 10 days in advance,or in certian situations i must give 24 hours notice to my tennants,i can only enter a dwelling without notice if i have reason to believe there is an unsafe condition that needs immidiate inspection.

The one loophole to these laws is saftey inspections or smoke alarm battery replacement,if dates & times are clearly spelled out in the lease & the tennant initials these dates & time windows only then can i enter without giving further notice.
 
Throwing my babies away is not an option, but like the other person said they probably don't realize what they look like and maybe i will grow some pepper plants so that way if they come back and ask i will be like marijuana??? No these are pepper plants or tomatoes of something. I think this would work perfectly and no they should have either emailed me or put a piece of paper in my mail or something we will see... Thx for the help guys

I thought this was standard practice. Granted, I've only signed one lease, it was pretty well spelled out(no specific dates/times) that they are allowed access for maintanance and safety inspections at any time. I've also helped some buddies who's leases allowed such also. Maybe state specific?

If a landlord is given any reason to suspect illegal activity on their property and neglects to pursue eliminating it, does that not make them liable?
Would you still be bound to give written notice to investigate it?

So, let's say you call the cops on your tenant after you've illegally entered one of your apts without notice.
What are the repercussions for you?
How hard would an apt dweller have to push($$$) to try to make anything of it?
How hard would it be to fabricate an unsafe condition(think - OMFG, the foundation may be compromised, oh wait, no it's ok)?
Would that get OP off the hook after the bust?

you'd be surprised. in california, once a renter moves in they almost have more rights than the owner.

Same here... if he doesn't give you 24 hour notice (unless emergency, like water leak) and he enters you take him to the board and you'll get a rent reduction or free months.. granted once you're popped rent is the least of your problems.. I'm lucky everyone here knows what I do and are cool..

Everything is within reason.

Its not hard to make up a reason to enter an apt where there are more than one unit per building,if the tennant files suit the landlord must show cause for entering without notice,if the landlord cant prove his case the tennant can win up to 3 times the monthly rent,this amount also apply's to security deposits not returned to the tennant,or written notice being given on seizure of security deposit.

If the landlord suspects illegal activity he still cant enter,he needs to call the cops & have them investigate.

In my state we hold no legal responsibility or liability to report any suspected crime to the police,unless its a threat to life then the same standards apply that apply to all citizens.

On the ethics end the landlord association i belong to strongly pushes its members into reporting any & all crimes,most follow this mode of thought .

As far as using the tainted evidence issue in court to get charges dropped i cant see that happening, i gotta believe that police depts are under no obligation to check to ensure the landlord followed guidelines governing entry,all they need is a complaint & somebody to let them in the door,after that you'd have to sue the landlord for breach of privacy,this part is pure speculation though as i have never dealt with this issue.
 
the thing was he put a sign up on the exit door, but there are always signs saying random stuff so i just by passed it, but now i read it yesterday after the fact. I still think they should have given a better notice
 
Plant some tomatoe plants noiw, get them big, then display them proudly for the next visit... And lock the cabinet.

I always have a stash of other plants that I grow in a seperate location, just in case, I can freely show them my garden of plants....
 
Not an option!! Are you nutz??!!
Explain your "Renters Rights" to the cops as they take your azz to jail after getting that hot tip from a "C.I." about your Gro-Op.
Don't be stupid,dump that weed & lay low for awhile.If nothing go down for a month,replant.
