What Security Tactics are good for Outdoor Plots?

[Smokin Moose]

I can not stress this enough and I'm sure I have tons of back on this statement. DO NOT USE HARMFUL/LETHAL DEVICES TO SECURE YOUR PLOT!! You know how the cops look at that? "These marijuana growers use bear traps, sawed off shotguns with tripwires, etc to protect their crop" That looks really bad on the cannabis community. Don't do it. There's a thing called camouflage. Use the native brush to your ability. I am aware that cannabis doesn't blend in with 90% of forests. Sh*t happens. I've heard of people use infrared systems that take pictures and/or start recording video when an object of particular size/temperature enters the vicinity. It won't help too much theft-wise but you can see if there's cops scoping your plot so you know just to lay low and forget about it, its gone. Some people use alarms connected to tripwires. These cause great amounts of attention but if you set them low enough to scare the person, they'll run. But please follow the Golden Outdoor Rule. Be creative and be safe.

is this the thread you spoke of?

If you do get caught, and man traps are present, you can be charged with a Federal Felony for setting the mantrap.

Women remember this . . . don't be setting the man trap.

Beware,
LEo uses these methods also to ID growers.
They will setup on a patch to see who it belongs to
or at least who is tending it.

I reccomend DYE pits. Dig a 1 foot deep hole, line it with black plastic, fill it with a mixture of water absorbing gel and commercial red dye. You will know who has been sneaking around your patch ;-)

You can also make dye sprayers with co2 cartridges. Kinda like claymores, only not leathal :-)

Ill give ya creative..An empty above ground pool with 4-5ft walls right in the backyard,I call it the hiding in plain sight method!LOL,It also keeps out any animals lookin for a tasty snack. It helps if the pool is over grown with sum with other vegatation,that help with cammo and the stankness. ;-)


...Legalize don't Demonize!

NICE! lol

Wonder if there is a market for DYE mines. Packets of permenant dye, placed over the end of a cO2 cartridge with a sping, a firing pin, and a wire to trigger it :-) Or even a very large one that could be placed in a tree that would explode dye over the entire area underneath it :-)

You would be walking through the grocery store and see some dude push his cart around with bright orange dye all over his ass. You would know not to go check your plants :-)

[fillabong420]

thats actually pretty smart
lol

[Boss]

Could probably fabricate it in the basement and sell them for about 25 bucks. It would be cool just making them work ;-)

[Smokin Moose]

Anything with an explosive cartridge would get you in the shit if caught by the cops.

[Boss]

Even if it was compressed gas huh, bummer :-)

Having a dye mine go off will not help anyone. Your plants would still be found and the chance for further charges added - you lose. The one who finds the plants also loses, but their loss is just more colorful. If the cops find your plants, I think the best thing is to not look back because, after all, you don't know a think about those plants!
