I really think (hope) that the law has better things to do than try to bust people growing small amounts in thier homes. If your running less than 1000w per bedroom of your house or apt you should be safe not drawing unwanted attention to yourself from the electric co. The biggest thing is KEEPING YOUR MOUTH SHUT! Don't tell ANYONE. When I show up with fresh buds in feb, I tell my freinds that a cousin grew it. If you can imagine, you tell one person, they are going to tell at least 2 people and on and on; it doesn't take long to get around. Pay your bills on time, and don't bring any unwanted attention to yourself. Don't be screamin at the ol lady every other day etc, if your ol lady is screamin at you every other day, time to find a new ol lady! Paranoia will deystroy ya! Whenever I start getting myself paranoid I tell myself "your not that important...the whole world is not thinking about you, and what you are doing. Be smart, and be quiet this is supposed to be a fun hobby. I grew outdoors for years and I think it is more risky than doing it indoors. I will admit I did love the rush of going out at harvest time though! Indoors is really safe as long as you have thought everything out. The bottom line is we (most of us) are doing something illegal, no matter how unjust we think the laws are, it is illegal, and if you are going to step up and do it, you better be prepared to suffer the consequences if you get caught. If your not, then i suggest another hobby. I really honestly believe that this is safer than going out and trying to score a bag somewhere else though...as long as you follow a few simple guidlines.
