Officers smelt cannabis factory Wednesday, 12 April 2006

A cannabis factory containing 500 plants was discovered by police officers who smelt it from the street.
Every room, apart from the kitchen, in the rented house in Wallisdown, Bournemouth, had been adapted for the cultivation of the drug.
Officers became suspicious before even entering the property on Monday because of the strong smell coming from it.
Dorset Police are urging landlords and the public to report any suspicious activity after the discovery.
Det Con Billy Bulloch said: "Around 500 plants were being watered by hand and no doubt the man who we're looking for was the gardener.
"Looking at what we've found here it's quite apparent that someone was living in the kitchen area where we found a camp bed and other personal items. I suspect that a man of oriental appearance may have been looking after the plants."
Police believe the factory may have links to similar finds uncovered in the south of England.
Landlords have been urged to contact police if they suspect their properties are being used for illegal activities.

In other words, the cops were tipped off somehow, and had to come up with a lame excuse because they didn't have enough for a warrant. Growing cannabis has a strong sickly sweet fresh-cut-lawn smell when flowering, but smells nothing close to that of burning bud.

Usually that's right but..
Cannabis growing smells a bit more than a lawn mowing does, and is just as distinctive as the smell when burning a joint. Just in a different way.
This is why it's so important to control the smell.
I don't disbelieve that they could tell what the fuck it was if they smelled it growing. I could, couldn't you?
The lesson and the moral here is that the gardener apparently had a major smelly problem that should have been remedied before it even began with ozone treated out vents and/or charcoal air scrubbers, and sealing all growroom cracks up tight. 
You simply cannot go big on lights and neglect or go low-budget on properly treating the vent air. His air treatment was ether non-existant, or grossly inadequate for his watts and plants, and that is a major fuck up that cost him his garden, his grow equipment, and possibly some of his life if they find him. 
And if they don't find him, he still needs to buy lights again now, more hydro tables... etc. etc. So I wonder how much money he saved or how much he lost when he didn't install ozone or air scrubbers?
If you're gonna go dippin' big, you'd better do it right or don't come at all baby.

I'd like to think it is not related to the Overgrow seisure, but I am not a fool to think that it definately isn't.
