Okay so here's the deal: while I was at work today my apartment complex sent some maintenance guys that came into my apartment to fix something for the apartment above me. I have a TON of mushrooms growing in my closet, and there's no way they wouldn't notice. Should I just leave my stuff, I think I'm going to. That's not enough for the cops to get a warrant, right? Hearsay generally is thrown out in court. Plus they don't know what kind of mushrooms they are. And they'd have to be a huge dick to actually go to the cops, after coming into my apartment like that. I just want to finish this grow, and then not grow for a while. What do you think? Good thing I'm not growing pot too.

I would quickly order some edible syringes and start growing those, actually I don't know what i would do. Pick everything now and dry it all, throw away all your cakes/casings/what have you. I wouldn't trust anyone to be a decent person and not snitch on your ass, people in america nowadays are all snitchy assholes.
EDIT: If they did say something, you would go to jail for no less than 5 years. It isn't worth it man, dry what you have ASAP and throw the rest out. Wait at least 9 more months before you start to grow again.

If they did snitch, could the cops really get a warrant? They could be totally lying, would the cops waste their time? They COULD be edibles, who knows. Does the maintenance man really care?

maybe he saw it but don't know what it is. its really none of his business to snoop around your place. most likely he didn't even notice it. if so they cops would have been at your place already.

Nope in plain view, and my GT cakes are fruiting like crazy. I have a casing that's just starting to pin, a lot. In a fishtank on the floor, he saw it. But I can just pretend they are edibles, he doesn't know right?

Plus all my growing stuff is in that closet too, vermiculite, peat moss, hydrated lime, a bunch of empty monotubs, my incubator, everything. I have 6 quarts of rye spawn just days from being able to use.

Well if the authorities read this board O.o. Better safe than trust in the decency of humanity I say. Save what you can and chuck the rest. Store shrooms NOT at your place for a while to see how things go. The cops can and will get a warrant on hearsay if they try hard enough. If you have more than a few grams you are considered dealing so yes 5 year minimum. If the people DID snitch on you (not saying they did or didn't) then they might send a cop around to see what's what. Know your rights and unless they have a warrant refuse the search etc. Just cause you have the growing supplies doesn't mean you're growing illegal. All of those are fine. And if it comes to a court contest ask the maintenance staff and the police for that matter if they are certified mycological experts. Cause I'll bet you dollars to donut holes they can't tell a portabella from a pan cy. So basically what their warrant would be based on would be "I saw some mushrooms in this guy's apartment" and HOPEFULLY that would be enough doubt for the judge to say that a search was unwarranted etc.

I really don't know dude, can you move all that shit to a friends house for a while or something? I wouldn't take this shit lightly because you will get in a retarded amount of trouble for this if they decide to turn you in. The laws against mushrooms are ridiculously harsh. I'd characterize them as draconian even.

About 8 years ago I read law book about Maryjane. I think the title was "Marijuana the Law and You" I'm not sure that title is correct. It was written by a Lawyer. What I remember most is that "at least in CA" Its difficult or at least a hassle for cops to get a warrant. There was a case about a known pot grower that avoid getting cot for a least a year or two. The cops even knocked at the door and asked him questions which is legal. One day the grower was cleaning his house and a small part of a pot leaf ended in his outdoor trash can. Apparently the cops don't need a search warrant to go through your trash. They subsequently got the warrant and the dude was busted. Know your rights. If a cop comes to your door talk to him/her out side. If you invite them in a they see a bong or smell pot they can easily get warrant. I don't know this apples to shrooms but think it would. I grew MJ in the past and after reading that book I felt at ease. Good Luck

Oh I definitely know my rights, this makes me feel much safer while my shit fruits for about another 4 days. That's what I figured I was just getting paranoid, I'm still happy I threw out all my other stuff though I was just being greedy.

I never worry about maintenance guys. Think about all the homes they go into and all the other shit they see on a regular basis. Don't sweat it. If anything I alway offer em a hit on my bowl. Seems to keep everyone happy.

Right. The Maintenance guys don't give a shit. I've had my maintenance guys see my GROW ROOM (Marijuana) Which, I think seems worse at least.
You'll be ok. They have their job to do rather than worry about busting up all their clientelle.

Wow you guys are so lax, considering this would be a felony charge. I'd clean up shop pronto, ANYONE including a maintainence man is enough to land you in jail. Fuck that.

yup..
almost the same thing that happened to me about ten years ago.. nice lttile raid they did while I was at work 2 days later
they did drop the charges down to a misdimeanor and 12 months probation..only cost me about $2000 for lawyers and 2 jobs that did a background check..
oh yea and another $1000 this summer to get the charges expunged from my NCICfile..as well as the court system..

That's what I was thinking anyway, I got rid of everything except 1 casing, and 5 cakes that are fruiting right now. I'm not too concerned about it, they came again this morning and I just pretended like I wasn't do anything illegal. They are mexicans I don't think they give a shit, but still once these are done fruiting I'm not going to grow for a month or two and see what happens.
How did they get a warrant to raid your house?

Dude just get rid of every motherfuckin thing NOW.
Is it REALLY worth it to you to risk fucking your life over, paying thousands, and possibly going to jail? AND don't forget about the stress.
Is it really worth it to put that all on the line for a few mere cakes?
You can never be too safe when you are doing something so illegal in such a sheeply society. Do the wise thing, for your own sake, and wait a few months.

The truth is "yes" hearsay can land a warrant, especially coming from an employee of the apartment complex. However, do you look the part? Do you look like, act like someone who would be involved in something illegal, someone who smokes pot? If you do (and you know what I mean) ditch everything. If you are a nice, polite outgoing person whom people in the apartment complex would not think you to be involved in something like that don't worry. Do you always pay rent on time? because maintenance will go to management first.

I'm convinced that there's no reason they would go through with getting a warrant, and even if they had enough motivation and were out to get me I doubt they have grounds for a warrant. I'm cool with the landlord ladies, one of them wants to hook me up with her daughter haha.. that would be weird as hell. I smoke pot in my apartment like 8 times a day also, I would never answer the door to cops.. and I know all about declining searches and their tricks they use to fuck you over.

If you feel confident I'd keep the 1 casing and the 5 cakes. I Live in a middle class neighborhood in my own house. If I was renting I might feel different. Good Luck
