It sounds like you already know the answer to your question.

If you live in an illegal state, you might as well just grow basil in there for old time sake. Some people don't want the stress of getting busted for a few ounces of weed they don't even enjoy. I get it. You can lose your freedom as well as a good portion of your bank account, current and future jobs, and even your lease or home.

If she is against it, you aren't going to convince her. Find a friend who will let you set it up. You can visit it and share the crop. And believe me, a good wife is harder to find than good weed. And buying weed is a whole lot less expensive than a divorce. ;)

If he is in an illegal state and smokes every day with her. Wouldn't that already put them at risk to lose everything as stated above?
I say plug it in and just tell her what it is. If she's a smoker I'm sure she will appreciate not having to buy it.
Don't put it at your friends house imo. Less people that know the better off you will be.

Not so much. Getting busted for possession is a much lesser charge to manufacturing with intent to distribute. And that is usually what they charge when you get caught with a grow of any size.

Of course, it matters where he lives and what the local laws and enforcement priorities are. And don't forget, the number one reason growers get busted is former spouses and lovers. ;)

I always laugh when there is an episode of cops where they respond to a domestic dispute and one of the angry pair rats out the other. It always makes the show fun.bongsmilie

But still a risk right? If he is growing in a small cab for him and his lady what's it gunna be a couple plants? Your not gunna have no crazy light bill lugging bags of soil around all the time. I still say you would be the only reason you got caught.

Agree. Either you telling others or your partner ratting you out in a fit of anger. ;)

But this isn't about logic. The question is about emotion. His wife doesn't want him growing. He made it sound absolute. I don't see any way to convince someone. Sure, you can play the love card, and call in a lot of chits, but that will get you in the end. If they resent it a lot now, but let you do it, it WILL come back to bite you later.

Don't ask me how I know.:blsmoke::blsmoke::blsmoke:

I agree and know exactly where your coming from. Been there done that. But it was 6 years ago and he also stated on a larger scale. You got a 50 50 chance of getting the green light.

Agree. It will help if you figure out exactly what you could be charged with if they find it. Then you can say, "look, I agree what I was doing was crazy. For the amount I grew, I could have been put away for 15 years; I wouldn't have gotten parole for 7. But for this little grow, it's no worse than possesion".

My partner tolerates my grows because they keep me occupied. She doesn't like that I grow it. But, I'm not giving it up just because she doesn't want me doing it.

If your partner smokes it with you. And it's only a small amount you're growing. Say- an oz or two every couple months or so. I don't see where the problem is.

It's not like you've expressed an interest in going all Walter White on her. It's a plant. One that you both enjoy by the sounds of it.

Why don't you just ask her?

My wife diddint want me growing. She dont smoke ether. Me i gotta be high 24/7 or so she says. One day a big box came to the door containing tent light and fan/filter combo. She didint like it but it was what it was. July 1st she gonna feel alot better when we legal. If your women dont let you do what your passionate about then she might not have been right for you in the first place.. just sayin.

Why don't you "stumble" across your grow box with her around and say something like "haha look what I found babe, I thought I threw this away" and then take it from there...something to get the convo started...practice what you want to say before "the find" though...g/l been there done that
