I remember when humbolt county let residents grow 99 plants if you had medical card and during thos time indoor grows where in 1 out of 5 homes. So there would be people from the citt go up there a home evade a random house since chances where good they woukd hit a grow. Well unfortantlty nany non growers got hit, such a shame. Theivery is the only thing i worry about even with a small grow. Just as gf said, a dog is a great line of defense. Also maybe some barb wire wraped aroubd the stalks? That woukd teach those dirybags a real leason.
