It all depends on where u are at. Border patrol is of course by the border near Brownsville. It's not like border patrol is out looking everywhere. It's not bout where u have a grow it's about how you run a grow. I know grow houses that are down the road from police stations.

lmao texas is the last place you'd want to grow, just think of how shitty it would be (for you or buyers) to get the finished product out of tx. So many border patrol and cops looking extra hard for stuff coming from Mexico...

Montana, Colorado, WA, Oregon are way better :P
Sure I'll just move to another state where I know nothing bout it. Your comment was dumb. I'm not moving product from Mexico to Texas and moving product is not a topic in question right now. That's like me asking if I should start an apple orchard and u reply bout how hard it is to be able to sell apples in Texas. Sorry mister know it all.

WAY more of Texas is outside those BP checkpoints. Texas has some excellent soil with a lot of limestone around and magnesium and dolomite in the hills in the west.

If this is TX you're considering then what general region are you talking? Not Dell City? That pic tells me way dry west. Check your water rights. Also be aware that with fracking going big if you live anywhere near oil you might wake up with a drill rig in your front yard or back yard or both. There will be nothing you can do about it either. You will NOT own the mineral rights and likely not the water rights either. So any drilling will yield you nothing but heartache. Those drill rigs run big lights and run 24/7. Multiple shifts of workers coming and going. Check on this going on in yards in Fort Worth.

There's some desolate country down there hospitable to some desperate people. Family ranches are still around but disappearing fast.

and they cant fly by my property without a warrant first right?
You're the one talking about growing hundreds/thousands of lbs of herb in a notorious border state where there are no medical laws and extra harsh sentences for possessing, trafficking, or cultivating schedule I narcotics. And a lot more eyes on the highways than most other states because of the flow of drugs from the south.

Smart guy.

The answer is no. You want to grow big like that, you need some mountains to hide in. Even then, it's iffy.

Ironically, you don't have to worry about helicopters, etc. The logistics alone will fuck you. Here you are toting in all that fertilizer etc and none of the locals know what you are doing with it? Busybodies are everywhere, they want to know what you are doing...and they will find out. They will have excellent excuses for trespassing on your property. That's the way it is.

An NPO growing food for the homeless? I can just picture normally lazy government employees leaping out of their chairs to do a photo shoot for the local paper about their indispensable role in "regulating" your operation.

I'd like to tell you that your ideas are workable. But they aren't. Oh, you might get away with it for a season, maybe two, but after that it is jail time. Grow small and stay free.
