Signs to spot a cannabis farm
Curtains remain shut all day, windows remain closed and may be taped-up to stop people seeing in. You might spot a chink of very bright light coming through cracks.
Its going to stink. Especially in the last couple of weeks before harvest. If you dont know what cannabis smells like, its quite sweet and a bit like tomato plants on a hot day.
People might bring lots of building, lighting and ventilation equipment into the venue. Plywood is used to separate different growing rooms.
Cannabis farms often have reinforced doors, strong locks, and fences and gates built where there were none previously to stop intruders.
