So I'm looking to do my first grow pretty soon - I'm still making my grow box and ensuring it all runs and works perfectly with no light or smell seepage. I'm taking every precaution to not get caught.
I'm only planning on growing 2 or 3 plants, 4 plants absolute tops - I don't have the room for any more than 4!
My main concern now is my daughter. I live with the missus and our toddler daughter. Although I'm taking every precaution to minimise the chances of getting caught, there's always that worry in the back of my mind - especially once I get to the flowering stage and smell can become a bigger issue.
The last thing I want is to jeopardize my family. I know social services can be ruthless!
What is likely to happen should I get caught growing 4 (max) plants with my daughter in the house? My grow box is in the loft so there's absolutely no way she could ever get near it. It will be padlocked. The missus is completely *unaware* that I have the grow box in the loft. My daughter will have absolutely no idea what is in the loft, nor will she ever come into contact with any weed produced in my box or otherwise.
Would we have social services involved for the foreseeable future? Would they try to take our daughter away from us?
My daughter is a very happy little girl - we have a very clean, happy home - she is never put in any danger by us and is loved and cared for greatly. Obviously I smoke weed, as does the missus sometimes. Neither of us take any other drugs these days and this would be verified should they drug test us. I never smoke weed around my daughter, it is always once she has gone to bed. My weed and paraphernalia are always well out of the reach of our daughter.
This is the only thing holding me back from finishing my grow box and progressing with my grow. If there's a risk of losing my daughter over it I may have to rethink whether it's worth me growing at home.
Does anyone have any experiences they can share regarding situations like this? Has anyone else ever had social services involved for growing weed? What was the outcome?
If anyone is kind enough to chip in, it would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
