Hey guys, This isn't my first grow, but in fact my first shot at an indoor grow.

https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/42331-chemo-purple-erkle-train-wreck.html

I have a quick question about energy emissions, I have 2 beautiful lights that i've aquired, one of which is a 400w MH that i've built myself custom, and then a really amazing 1000w HPS that my friend has given me. I just moved in to these new apartment complexes, i'm wondering if I run the 1000W HPS all day or atleast 18/6 how likely am I to have the DEA knocking at my door?

any help you guys can throw my way is greatly appriciated.

Thanks!

youll be fine, i run a 1000watt HPS at my apartment too. its been several years since my first grow, ive always used 1000watt switchable. your monthly powerbill will go up roughly $30 to $60 more. no worries at all.

its actually against the law for them to infrared scan your spot with a chopper unless they have a warrant

now that doesnt mean the cops always follow the laws themselves so they might just do it but technically it is illegal and if you had a good enough lawyer to prove it you would get your case thrown out

and if they did have a warranmt for it then they already know and your probably gonna get caught anyway

i would be more worried about your neighbors hearing the fan going unless you get a super quite one cuz that light is gonna make shit hot and youll need a fan for exhaust all the ones i know people have are pretty loud
