I really hope that you can figure something out with them grampsā€¦ If it is close to your property but clearly on the other side of the property line on the ground, you should be able to contest that you have nothing to do with your neighbors activities. I would find your property markers and take pictures of them and ā€œdown the lineā€ from each direction showing the clear separation between your property line and where they built their glass robot no matter how close. There is often variance between aerial, land sat and physical property boundary pins, if they are infringing on your property you can ensure the right folks are facing fines.

As per any changes in the regs I wouldnā€™t rush to cut back or down any of you gorgeous ladies, plead ignorance and beg for forgiveness when/IF you get caught with your pants down. Unless that is that you know that you are WAAAAY over but I would just play dumb, say you must have miscalculated canopy area or didnā€™t realize that you were over under the new regs :lying_face:

So I called around their hitting everyone in the county if your not in compliance they take everything growing . Even the new legal six plants rule so we chopped looks empty in the garden . I saved a Romulan a Vanilla Frosting and 4 Bling should be a snap to take care of now and still going to have a boat load I hope . Rumor has it at over a 150,000 plants pulled ouch . My fences are on the property lines I was here before other houses . The notice was not signed or dated just stapled to a post at the end of my driveway so anyone driving by could read and know where to get some good smoke thanks .

Man, thatā€™s terrible. I heard a specific breeder that happens to do a podcast a couple days ago talking about how there would be a serious crack down. I think he said something along the lines of ā€œDudeā€™s wonā€™t be pulling 2000 Ilbs out their back yards this year.ā€

@gramps sorry to hear about the trouble there, I know it had to hurt cutting those down early, but better safe than sorry. It sounds like your neighbor situation is problematic to say the least, and I am sure that you know how to deal with them best. Good luck.

So sorry gramps. That is a really bad situation. If you were my gramps, it would be hard not to go break some kneecaps.

It is really annoying when someoneā€™s stupidity ruins someone elseā€™s hard work.

Code enforcement called their going to make an appointment with me to count my plants . I hope they can count to six ? They said no fines I guess not my grow is legal but they have to verify property lines . The guys next door are in shit city being turned over to drug enforcement not my problem . The raiding party was in the area today another sad day for someone their not arresting anyone just chopping . They might file charges later when the covid19 slows .

Ahh hell, man. it never fails; someone elseā€™s negligence brings heat to you.

I donā€™t know. It sounds like they were overlaying property boundaries from arial photos and counting plants for everybody. Iā€™ve wondered if that would happen here. I donā€™t think we have the same concentration of outdoor grows here, just because of the climate.

I have read of large busts in our state of really large illegal grows. Once they get a handle on that I can see them looking at home grows. Damn, man. I know thatā€™s a loss of investment. Itā€™s not cheap to assemble that much dirt and water.

I remember not long ago somebody mentioned a community in Norcal and the growers and stuff. I happened to google it and was blown away at all of the properties that were clearly visible from above. Everybody in the county was growing a lot and it was simple to count the plants. I donā€™t remember which county it was.

Youā€™re in or close to Humboldt if I remember right.

Man, this news makes me sick. Sorry for the loss of your pets. Thatā€™s a lot of blood, sweat, and tears flushed all at once. I hope you can bring the attention back to your neighbor, and the possible use of illegal immigrants to break our laws. You did nothing to bring attention to you. Itā€™ll take lawyers now to make anything happenā€¦ damn. prayers and vibes sent brother. peace

Iā€™m sure I was growing under the old rules that were good till January . But when enforcement shows up with an abatement order they chop everything so better to just have six . Iā€™m in the central Sierra Nevada foothills N. California with dozens of big grows close by I think everyone pushed the limits and brought this on all of us . I kept the bushy plants that had better sun they should finish great . Lots of hoop house grows so Iā€™m sure some early harvest and going for their second grow when busted . I know the price will skyrocket around here . That was Covelo the whole town unreal one grow was 20,000 thousand plants :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Itā€™s heartbreaking that some of your hard work has been wasted, but itā€™s a HUGE relief to know nothing bad will happen to you OR those 6 remaining monster plants!

Sitting out on the deck drinking coffee and watched two forked horn deer jump right inside the giant greenhouse lol . They went right under the automatic side curtains my boys must have had a notice on their road also a crew is removing all the plants and loading into a trailer and its not the sheriff .

Man, my heart breaks for you @gramps. It stings worse when someone elses problems show up at your door.
Is this in USA or Canada? im guessing Cali maybe w/ a 6 plant limit?
If its Cali then I remember Kevin Jodrey back in May or June say they were coming for the light deps hard this year . And they did.
Im in Canada and happy glad I didnt sign up for medical plant counts.
Thats bullshit. I feel for ya.
