I think my neighbour has a marijuana grow-op...

[gekkexx]

Now thinking that your neighbour has a marijuana grow-op is weird, but allow me to explain:

About 3 years ago or so, we had neighbours (immediate neighbours to one side of our house) that moved in. At first there was a family living there, but as time went on, we never saw any of them again, except for some guy that would come in every now and again to cut the lawn and put out the trash. But it was apparant that there was no one living in the house, cause there were no cars or anything.

At that point, I remember me and my brother would often remark that how do you afford to live in a house that you don't actually live in. We thought that that was pretty weird. And at one point, we even joked that it was probably a marijuana grow-op, but never really thought much of it. It got to the point where we would use our neighbours driveway as an additional car park for our cars cause they were just NEVER there.

So, one day, I woke up to 5 police cars around my neighbours house. So I go outside wondering what its all about, and the cop explains that they were growing marijuana on two levels and then they started bringing out the stuff in garbage bags.

Anyways, that was the first house.

Now Im thinking that its happening again but this time with the neighbours across the street from us. Again, its the same story all over. There used to be a family living there, but as time goes on, we only ever see one guy who comes to clear leaves, or put out the trash. And in the winter time, normally people shovel their driveways after a dumping, but like a week will pass by before their driveway is shovelled and there is always the same 2 cars that are always parked in their driveway but never move. And all the lights in the house are on all the time to make it *appear* that there is someone living there.

What would you do in this situation?

[AcidBomber]

lol it happened before? what area do you live in...?

think you should call the non-emergency Police line and inform them of your suspicion.

Check the power meter on the side of the house to see if they are using tonnes of current. Call the cops pronto What neighbourhood is this?

Does their roof have a lot less snow than the rest of the houses on the street?

You could also call Crime Stoppers.

Ontario is a good "place to grow".

I haven't done this yet, cause I wouldn't know when would be the best time to stroll over across the street and look at their power meter. But anyways, I remember with the first grow-op, they apparantly somehow changed something with the power meter. Or at least thats what the guys said when they came to cut the electricity to the house.

Thats a good observation to make, but I haven't been regularly keeping an eye on this.

Call the police to check out, it's the only choice you can go for if you want to know the answer...

What is with all the "stop snitching" posts? I understand there might be a chance for retribution, but we shouldn't necessarily be turning a blind eye to crime.

But it seems like the police know anyway from what you're saying.
