Minimize the Fallout Should You Get Busted For Growing...

Since we're all growers, and we're all worried (or should be) about getting busted...

Here are the proactive things I've done to minimize the fallout (i.e. my legal liabilities) should I get busted for growing...

1. I keep my grow area isolated to a small part of my house. It makes me feel like my grow looks "small-time"...

2. I keep NO WEIGHING DEVICES in my house...cops use even food weighing scales found in the kitchen as "evidence" that growers are growing to SELL and/or TRAFFIC...no shit...

3. I keep NO PLASTIC BAGGIES in my house...cops use those as "evidence" as in (2) above...no shit...

4. I don't have anything in my house that could be used as evidence of cloning...even though I do clone...but I do it the old-fashioned way...I just cut and plant in rooting cubes...no cloning devices of any sort...not even homemade ones...

5. I have MEMORIZED the phone number of the BEST marijuana defense lawyer in my area...

6. I have watched the video "Don't Talk to the Police" MANY times, and know the drill...NEVER ANSWER POLICE QUESTIONS...just call the lawyer whose phone number you've memorized like I said in (5) above...

7. I limit my grow to 4 plants in veg, and 3 in flower, at any given time...it makes my grow look "small-time"...

So, if the cops busted your grow, would they be able to give the DA enough evidence to convict you as a seller/trafficker? If so, then you're an idiot...

I don't think this belongs in the political thread but the only two things you need to do.

1.Don't tell ANYONE PERIOD!!! Also don't post bragging pics with your shit all in the background.
2. Don't fucking sell it, if you're trying to make a living off it you have got to pay the piper bad shit always happens in that business.

There you are, spend the rest of your days with plenty of cannabis and almost absolute zero chance of getting busted.

my main point of contention with this post is the first half of the first sentence.. we're all growers here.. what a joke that is.. i only wish that were true, but i can easily spot member upon member who clearly don't grow, ffs, i wonder if half the people who post regularly in this section have even smoked cannabis, never mind grow it..

and i don't really see the harm in having cloning agents around so long as you only have say 8 plants, who cares if they came from seed or clone??

so when you told me that you threw out your back carrying 60 pounds to your truck last year, was that all for personal use, or is the shit you grow so hideous that you just feed it to the farm animals/wife?

LOL!

My GUESS is that cops would use cloners as "evidence" that you were looking to "mass produce"...thus to convict you as a "seller/tafficker"... again, my guess...but I do suspect...

Those are GR8 words of wisdom, to those looking to AVOID detection by LEO...and I personally adhere to your words of wisdom, as should every grower...

But the gist of my original post was "What are you doing to minimize the fallout SHOULD you get busted for growing?"...not prevention, but what can you do NOW to prepare for the worst case scenario, if indeed it happens...because it IS possible...

So, are you as prepared as you could be if you were to get busted for growing?...I am...at least I THINK I am...

Well, do you smoke? If so, then you SHOULD grow...it's fun as hell...smoking your own jack...beyond cool...give it a try...there are great resources on this web site that will have you growing the best shit you've ever smoked...a bit of hard work to get started, but worth it...
 
On the question of, "used as evidence" indeed anything and everything will be attempted to be used against you in a court of law.

And if you have a good attorney to play to Judge assignment game, baggies and kitchen scales won't go into evidence on the common household item argument.

It will all show up on your pre-sentencing, but that is disputed by said attorney. I had an oral syringe, irrigating 4 wisdom teeth pockets. My PSR, tried to paint me as a needle user. The syringe had a long curved, gooseneck tip to a tiny point that would never hold a needle.

The judge ignored it and accept my written explaination.
 
Not quite. It is to prepare for the inevitable, after it happens.

No guns? Just lawyers and money. The shit has hit the fan.

I'd had a bails bondsman phone # memorized, if I was that worried.

hard to smoke anything behind bars and having all your possessions confiscated. I kinda like my family, house, cars and motorcycles, dogs etc.
make it legal to grow and i'm in it to win it

Easier said than done.
And they will still confiscate it regardless of title

I shit you not. When cops around here find drugs in cars they actually check to see if the car is financed. If it isnt it is now police property. I guess it is harder to confiscate a car with a loan on it and turn it into a undercover. But they will still tow it to impound for "inventory" and wont release it until the owner shows up and pays the fees if they let it go at all. It could stay there for "evidence" until after the court date

I'm a degreed, professional engineer who (in my job) is expected to have all the answers...to all questions asked, and to 99.5% of all questions unasked...and to 97.5% of all other questions as well...if I want to keep my job...and I do, since it far exceeds 6 figures annually...

Responsible adults act responsibly...and plan ahead...for retirement, and in case their world is invaded by LEO...grow up you stupid punk asshole...the real world is waiting for your emergence...
