Infrared and pot growing in home.

In summary, police in Ontario and Canada are using helicopters with infrared cameras to detect marijuana being grown in residential homes. This is because growing good pot requires a lot of light and heat, making it easy for police to spot homes with a large infrared signature. To minimize this issue, some suggest hiding under a sheet of plastic foil covered with aluminum to reflect body heat and avoid detection. However, it is important for drug dealers to consider doing something more productive for society instead of growing drugs.

Here in Ontario/Canada police started using helicopters equiped with infrared cameras to detect marijuana grown in residentiall homes.
As you know growing good pot requires lots of light/heat, so for cops is quite easy to fly over residential homes and check which one has big IR signature and then conduct small investigation and Bingo! another one busted.
How do you guys think can anyone growing pot (who me? :cool: ) go about this problem and minimize IR problem?

Drug dealers are s** of b******. Just try to do something useful for society instead ob being an as*****

How about when you are in forrest for example and police is looking for you and are equipped with IR camera?
If I climbed under the sheet of plastic foil covered on one side with aluminum,then my body heat is reflected back and almost none is radiating out,would that work?
PS.By the way, home grown is the BEST! MAN! :-pBut I have to do something about that goddamn IR.!
 

Related to Infrared and pot growing in home.

What is infrared and how does it relate to pot growing in home?

Infrared is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye. It is commonly used in heating and imaging technology. In the context of pot growing in home, infrared can be used to provide heat and light to the plants, promoting growth and yield.

How does infrared affect the growth of pot plants?

Infrared radiation has been found to have a positive effect on the growth of pot plants. It helps to increase the photosynthesis process, leading to healthier and faster growth of the plants. It also helps to regulate the temperature and humidity levels, creating an optimal environment for the plants to thrive.

What are the benefits of using infrared in pot growing in home?

Using infrared in pot growing in home has several benefits. It can increase the growth rate and yield of the plants, improve the overall health of the plants, and help to create a more controlled and efficient growing environment. It can also save energy and reduce costs compared to traditional methods of heating and lighting.

Are there any potential risks of using infrared in pot growing in home?

While infrared is generally considered safe for use in pot growing, there are some potential risks to be aware of. Overexposure to infrared radiation can cause burns and damage to the skin and eyes. It is important to carefully regulate the amount of infrared used and to wear protective gear when working with it.

Can infrared be used in all stages of pot plant growth?

Infrared can be used in all stages of pot plant growth, from seedling to flowering. However, the amount and intensity of infrared used may need to be adjusted depending on the stage of growth. It is important to research and monitor the specific needs of your plants to ensure they are receiving optimal levels of infrared radiation.
