your electric bill can fluctuate as much as you want, the elect company doesnt tell the cops about that stuff, unless they ask, and if you think the cops are asking the electric company for your power use (ie they already suspect your growing and are investigating you) you prolly shouldnt be growing in the first place, as for the choppers, chances are they arnt gunna spend the money flying over neighborhoods looking for abnormal heat sources, cops rnt gunna use these investigative resources unless they already suspect something in the first place, so just keep everything on the DL and you should be fine

good point, they shouldnt be digging around for that shit, cause they could to easily be mislead by an extra computer or fridge as some say. so all i really have to worry about is narcs really, i just cant let a soul know.

sorry man, if you took it that way....

but i didnt mean it like, nor to come off as smart ass.


a 30 increase is nothing at all..... a massive gaming lan party every weekend can cause a $200/month light bill.....

Oh, yeah man it did, but shit good thinking. Its just not going to be at my house so i just cant fucking blow it with someone else at steak. mmm. anyways yeah it will be permissioned so shit im all over it. What kind of nut wouldnt be?? jk ik its a risk, but im a fucking risk taker. 'Great rewards come with... the 400 watt hps' they say.

400 watter is not going to get you looked at, investigated, draw suspicion unless you are into other shit.

400 watt isnt shit! you are pretty much small time if you aint 4k + or better!

they sell stuff to block IR waves

even if they can ID a HID light in a closet with a IR dealy from a chopper, what happens? cops come to your door and say ya we saw this, u say i have an indoor garden and unless u have a warrent u cant come in(they rnt gunna be able to get a warrent because they see a HID in ur house)....then u just ditch ur stuff as soon as they leave....and i agree with loudblunts, even a few 1ks wouldnt do anything, i have a 1500 watt space heater in my room and ive never had cops at my house

Are you using an electric hot water heater? If so, put it on a timer. Yes, every twelve hours. Compensate for little things like that, peeps. Turn off fans, lights, open window blinds, et cetera.

the house im in has had several people live in it over the years . sometimes a family or just a couple people. my gma used to be here with an oxygen machine and the bill went way up and the cops never came by to see why.
so the bill here has jumped and dropped many times over the years. i mean from one person to 5 people. so dont worry unless youre pulling like 4 1000w lights or more

well it all depends on where you live. I have a place in michigan that runs at 0.08 per kw hour. I also have a place in canada which I just finished a grow at 0.05 cents per kw hour. It raised my bill about 10 bucks. I have the marijuana grows bible, where jorge does everything big. A 1000w should raise your bill about 18 bucks a month based on a 0.08 kwh rate.Based on his forumla you can pull 1000w for each room you have in your home, and no one will even flinch. No one is going to even consider you unless you have a 100%-200% increase. You should be fine. Say you got a de-humidifier I have one that runs at 480 watts constant. Say you have really bad asthma if it concerns you that much.

I am surprised most of you have not tried solar power. Of course, if you live some place without much sun light, this would not matter. In Florida, it works great.
