How common is it for the cops to literally surprise a home grower in their house/apartment on average. It seems to me they spend most of their time going after the larger dealers. Just curious. I know it all depends on how secrative you are about it, just wondering what the statistics are about it.

If you get caught, expect to be suprised. If you don't, don't. Thats the thing though I guess, you usually don't realize till it's a little late. I highly doubt anyone has compiled statistics on the subject.

i think the only reason someone would get caught at home would be because the cops were tipped off and then they started taking interest or by pure accident like when you call 911 for something or some shit.

it depends on how good you are at keeping your mouth shut and keeping a low profile.
there are 2 ways to get busted. by accident and on purpose.
by "accident" i mean that your landlord, plumber, electrician, delivery guy, cable guy, etc. finds your grow and alerts the police. you can avoid this by keeping your grow discreet (out of plain view) and properly locked up and keeping a low profile.
by "on purpose" i mean the cops coming at you with a warrant based on other information. you can avoid this by keeping your mouth shut, keeping a low profile (do not commit any other crimes while you're growing. this obviously includes selling), not ordering questionable items with your credit card or having them sent to your address, refraining from throwing incriminating items in the trash, and protecting your constitutional rights should the need arise.

Shit the only people know that I grow are my wife and 1 of my ex-"friends" who I dont talk with anymore and I told him I dont grow anymore, not only that he dont even know where I live, did I mention he sells weed and LSD ? so I doubt he would wanna open his mouth about anything. And let me add this, all he knows is that I planned to grow, he never saw anything, he just goes but what I told him, but after that I didnt tell anyone and Im keeping my mouth shut.

And these two things are ABSOLUTELY essential! Pay heed to this! I've seen/read/heard of far too many grows (both mushrooms and weed) that have been busted because 'someone talked'. Many have also been nailed because the cops stumbled onto them whist investigating some totally unrelated matter.

> if they were going to bust you, they probably wouldn't be so nice about it unless they wanted to blackmail you.
I have heard of this type of thing done when they suspect you, but don't have enough evidence against you to get a search warrant or press charges. They spook you somehow so that you panic and throw everything away. They simply go to the trash and collect everything you tossed using it against you in court.

or they just sit back and wait for you to make a move with your stuff... this one happened to a buddy of mine... he called me and a few other people telling us that we could come by and grab a few or all of his plants and grow them, he said he didnt care, he was just paranoid and wanted it all out... i almost did just that, but something said not to...
