Hi

I just found a growshop a few miles from me, bit late in the day but great news as I can go down there tomorrow to get bat guano and will probably buy other stuff (depends how good the salesman is smile.gif

So I got all excited when I saw their list of products but then the comedown was wondering how stealthy I need to be when I go in and out. Bit weird, I wouldnt mind going in except ive got a grow going, outdoors, okay, but dont they have these places covered? cctv and al that?

After all, the Vietcong dont just nip down there, do they?

how the f=k do the hydro guys go shopping w/o geting busted?

That's not my prob. But how do I go shopping w/o getting tailed in some way?

Any ideas?

ps I want that product! RIGHT 2 SHOP!!!!

peace

He was a silly boy to have kept all of the previous invoices - I guess they would have tracked them eventually though.

Cumulus cant you ride a thermal and drop onto the roof with your chute rig?They dont stake those places out 24/7 because they havent the resources nor manpower mate and besides they like an easy life relying on narks and snouts,you will be fine,but maybe you should visit the make-up artist the Ģ40 million jewellery robbers used and have your face prosthetically altered just in case unsure.gif Always better to be safe than sorry I guess unsure.gif ph34r.gif Or do what I do,just wear a balaclava permanantly like the "General" Martin Cahill ph34r.gif

i'd say keep you wallet in your pocket and check out the prices first, they might like to spank peeps. chris.gif

have a look at greens (safe as houses )

or via the top banner on each page wink.gif

get an idea of what you want costs then you can decide if it's worth it at your local shop

You can get everything you need to do a guerrila grow at a regular garden center (except seeds). If you want the more exotic stuff like guano and plagron then you can either order online or go to a growshop. I've never been bothered about going to a growshop as they would have to follow me for a long time between shopping and visiting a plant. I dont think the cops ever stake thoose places out as they'd go out of business prety quick, theyd rather send an undercover in and try to get to growshop owner to give them some info on how to grow cannabis and bam arest them for conspiracy.

on-line, and you will have it all written down, several times too, at your bank, on your statement and where ever the statement is requested. If you do the shop it's cash only no names.

They usually are Cumulus, I've been frequenting my local G/S for around 3 years now and all has been fine, I started to get discounts after my 3rd visit 13.gif

Donīt drive there so the cops can clock your car reg. - take the bus (or a taxi if you are flush) and pay with glorious UNTRACEABLE cash !!!
Stickybud73
You should do cash for piece of mind, 'specially when the backyard is full of seedlings 3 weeks later!! [march].

They may just monitor who buys the seeds and come check your shit after.

It's not being para, just smart. Those grow shop dudes are all slightly dubious.

Stickybud. Are you saying growshop owners grass up, or steal from their costomers?? I should think most have better business strategies and all have better things to do with their time, like maintaining a buisness and looking after their own genetics.
(And I am not just saying that becouse I own a growshop)
Stickybud73
Not at all, it's just they do sell obvious canabis cultivation equipment, which can attract criminals. Not the occasional GG or small scale indoor cultivator, but serious organised crims. Some of the bigger shops look very slick, but my local grow shop is a magnet for heavily tatooed geezers with missing teeth. If the police decided to raid the joint for any reason, they'd probably take the bank records too...better to stick with cash.

I think its a given that you should pay with cash, park up a fair distance from the shop, and walk a bit of a twisting route back to your car. You cant do much more than that!
gromo
Fair comment.
Doctor John
Dress up as Darth Vader, put a Vietnamese pointy straw hat on and stride down the street, fling open the door, brandish your light sabre, and demand low prices, that should do it.......... nobody will ever notice or bat an eyelid.

Just walk in there with an empty box and a clip board on top of it. That way you look like the delivery guy and not a customer. I have to admit i've done this at a few shows before, wearing a t-shirt of one of the companies at the show. Saved Ģ25 quid entry fee!
Not that i make a habit of being devious, but when your young...lol.gif

I walk into shops because I think its unlikely the feds will just sit outside a shop. I know they are complete wastes of space but Im sure they do have better things to do like fill out forms and haress litter bugs etc. I think it also depends on the shops. The ones Iv been to have been quite low profile and have had veg growing in a tent but iv been in one where they had weed growing in the back room. I think they are the places to avoid. If possible park round the side or a lil way away if your para and just try to be in and out.
Bad Penny.
Weed growing in the back room unsure.gif ??I remember hearing several years ago of a shop in the north that did a thriving backdoor business supplying clones ph34r.gif I dont know if he is still trading or not but he was knocking them out for a fiver a pop,thats the sort of shop to avoid like the plague ph34r.gif
amyds2104
Yeah there was also a place in london who used to smoke joints out the front. Madness. Talk about bringing shit to your doorstep.
